| Property | Prusa CORE One+ (Gen 2) INDXTOOLCHANGER | Sovol SV06 PlusBEDSLINGER |
|---|---|---|
| Identity | ||
| Brand | Prusa Research | Sovol |
| Class | TOOLCHANGER | BEDSLINGER |
| Identity & Market | ||
| Manufacturer & exact marketed model name (verify the exact product identity first) | Prusa CORE One+ (Gen 2) INDX, listed as "INDX 4-Tool" and "INDX 8-Tool" variants and as an "INDX 8-Tool Assembly kit"[1][2] | Sovol SV06 Plus[3] |
| Release date (announcement and actual shipping) | Announced as shipping on 20 August 2026 ("INDX, Shipping Has Started, Complete Printers Open for Orders"). Prusa's own front page in Aug 2026 announces "Prusa CORE One+ (Gen 2) INDX, Shipping Has Started, Complete Printers Open for Orders", with the assembled 8-tool machine quoted as shipping from 15 October and the kit from 29 October[4][1] | Not documented |
| Street price (USD; dated snapshot per entry) | $1,850.93 for the INDX 4-Tool and $2,082.41 for the INDX 8-Tool on prusa3d.com, Aug 2026; the 8-Tool assembly kit is $1,804.63. Camera and filtration bundles run to $2,152.78[1][2] | Not documented |
| Variants & sibling models — and how to tell them apart (spec-contamination risk) | INDX is a multi-tool option on the CORE One+ (Gen 2) product page rather than a separate printer, sold in 4-tool and 8-tool configurations, plus a CORE One/+ INDX conversion kit for existing machines. All of the body, hotend, bed and electronics figures below come from that shared CORE One+ (Gen 2) page and were not published separately for the INDX machine, so treat them as platform figures. Prusa also sells the unrelated MMU3, which multiplexes five filaments through one nozzle[2][1] | Larger sibling of the SV06 (220x220x250). Distinct from the SV06 Plus ACE, which is 300x300x350 mm, runs Klipper on an RK3308, adds a 4.3-inch touchscreen, camera and ceramic hotend. The 340 mm vs 350 mm Z figure is the cleanest way to tell the two apart in a spec box[3][5] |
| Market position: superseded? successor announced? | Not documented | Delisted by Sovol; the current collection carries the SV06 Plus ACE instead. 3DJake shows it sold out and no longer stocked[6][3] |
| Physical & Frame | ||
| Build volume X×Y×Z (mm) — advertised vs actually usable | 250 x 220 x 270 mm - the CORE One+ (Gen 2) figure from the shared product page; Prusa does not publish a separate INDX build volume[2] | 300 x 300 x 340 mm advertised (note: the ACE version is 350 mm in Z)[3] |
| Machine footprint (mm) & clearance needed (cable/spool overhang) | 415 x 444 x 555 mm - shared CORE One+ (Gen 2) figure[2] | Not documented |
| Frame construction & material | Not documented | Open frame with linear-rail motion, supplied as an assembly kit. One 3DJake purchaser reports construction defects and linear-axis stability problems[3] |
| Enclosure: open / enclosed; panel material; door/lid | Fully enclosed with active chamber heating up to 55 C (shared CORE One+ platform)[2] | Open frame, no enclosure[3] |
| Kinematics & Motion Hardware | ||
| Kinematics (bedslinger i3 / CoreXY / other) | CoreXY with a multi-tool head-changing system (INDX); Prusa's comparison table gives CoreXY for the CORE One family[2] | Cartesian i3 bedslinger[3] |
| Extruder | ||
| Type (direct drive / bowden) & design name | Nextruder direct drive, 10:1 planetary gearbox (shared platform)[2] | Direct-drive extruder, single[3] |
| Hotend & Nozzle | ||
| Max nozzle temp claimed AND firmware max temp limit (both values) | 290 C claimed max nozzle temperature, 400 C with the optional HT hotend (shared platform)[2] | Not documented |
| Heated Bed & Surface | ||
| Max bed temp claimed AND firmware limit | 120 C max heatbed temperature (shared platform)[2] | Not documented |
| Leveling & Z-Offset | ||
| Auto bed leveling: probe technology (inductive / strain gauge / load cell / touch probe) | Load-cell sensor, fully automatic first-layer calibration (shared platform)[2] | Not documented |
| Filament Handling & Detection | ||
| Filament runout sensor (type, location) | Filament sensors fitted (two on the CORE One+ platform)[2] | Not documented |
| Multi-material/multi-color capability or official upgrade path | INDX gives up to eight filaments; the alternative MMU3 handles five through a single nozzle[2] | Not documented |
| Electronics & Power | ||
| Mainboard model & MCU (exact chip markings if teardowns exist) | Custom 32-bit xBuddy board with STM32 (shared platform)[2] | Not documented |
| Firmware & Openness | ||
| Firmware base & current version (Klipper fork / Marlin fork / proprietary) | Open-source Prusa Buddy firmware. The source tree (prusa3d/Prusa-Firmware-Buddy on GitHub) explicitly covers the Original Prusa MINI/MINI+, MK4, XL and CORE One and was last pushed to in August 2026. Updates are applied from a USB drive, through Prusa Connect or through the Prusa mobile app[7][8] | Not documented |
| Connectivity, UI & Camera | ||
| Display: size, type, touch? | 3.5-inch 65k-colour touch screen (shared platform)[2] | Not documented |
| WiFi (band/standard), Ethernet, USB ports, SD/flash-drive | Ethernet and Wi-Fi, USB drive (shared platform)[2] | USB connection and mini-SD card[3] |
| Materials Support | ||
| Officially supported filament list | PLA, PETG, Flex, PVA, PC, PP, CPE, PVB; ABS, ASA, HIPS and PA as advanced materials in the heated chamber (shared platform)[2] | 1.75 mm filament; no per-material list published on the listing[3] |
| Reliability, Support & Ecosystem | ||
| Warranty length & support reputation (evidence, not vibes) | 2-year warranty for consumers in the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland; 1 year for EU enterprises and 1 year for the rest of the world, which includes the United States. A printer bought from a reseller or privately carries 1 year from the original delivery date and is handled by the reseller. Prusa advertises 24/7 chat and e-mail support in seven languages[9][8] | Not documented |
Manufacturer claims, independent measurements, packages and test conditions retain their source wording. FDM linear speed and resin vertical speed use different units and are not directly comparable. Unknown values are marked “Not documented”. Prices and source dates remain historical snapshots; check the linked guide for product details. Differences highlight text, not a universal winner.
