| Property | QIDI Plus4COREXY | Sovol SV06 PlusBEDSLINGER |
|---|---|---|
| Identity | ||
| Brand | QIDI | Sovol |
| Class | COREXY | BEDSLINGER |
| Identity & Market | ||
| Manufacturer & exact marketed model name (verify the exact product identity first) | QIDI Plus4, sold as "Plus4 3D Printer". QIDI's own wiki files it under X-Plus4[1][2] | Sovol SV06 Plus[3] |
| Release date (announcement and actual shipping) | Announced September 2024; QIDI ran launch promotional pricing in the week of 20-27 September 2024 (secondary reporting, not a QIDI press release)[4] | Not documented |
| Street price (USD; dated snapshot per entry) | $649.00 on us.qidi3d.com for the Plus4 + 1 filament variant against a $799.00 compare-at price; $699.00 on qidi3d.com against $799.00. Checked Aug 2026[1][2] | Not documented |
| Variants & sibling models — and how to tell them apart (spec-contamination risk) | Two purchasable variants: Plus4 + Filament x1 at $649 and Plus4 Combo + Filament x1 at $799 (Combo adds the QIDI Box multi-material unit). Distinct from the older X-Plus 3 (280x280x270, 350 °C) and from the newer Plus5 (320x320x300)[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| Market position: superseded?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? | Superseded at the top of the large-format line by the Plus5, launched 5 August 2026 with 18% more build volume; Plus4 still listed and in stock Aug 2026[6][7] | Delisted by Sovol; the current collection carries the SV06 Plus ACE instead. 3DJake shows it sold out and no longer stocked[8][3] |
| Physical & Frame | ||
| Build volume X×Y×Z (mm) — advertised vs actually usable | 305 x 305 x 280 mm advertised. No independently measured usable envelope found[1][4] | 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) | 505 x 487 x 550 mm[4] | Not documented |
| Net weight (kg) | 32 kg gross (3DJake). QIDI does not publish a net weight on the product page[4] | Not documented |
| Frame construction & material | Enclosed CoreXY chassis with double-layer chamber insulation; QIDI does not publish a frame material breakdown[1] | 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, double-layer insulated chamber with second-generation active heating to 65 °C[1][4] | Open frame, no enclosure[3] |
| Passive chamber temperature reached (if enclosed; measured values preferred) | 65 °C, actively heated by a 400 W heater which QIDI says reaches setpoint in about 8 minutes (manufacturer claim)[1][4] | Not documented |
| Kinematics & Motion Hardware | ||
| Kinematics (bedslinger i3 / CoreXY / other) | CoreXY[4] | Cartesian i3 bedslinger[3] |
| Z-axis: leadscrew count & type, sync mechanism, anti-backlash | Dual independent Z motors on 10 mm linear shafts and screws[1] | Not documented |
| Speed & Acceleration | ||
| Max print speed (claimed, mm/s) | 600 mm/s (manufacturer claim, tool-head maximum)[4] | Not documented |
| Max acceleration (claimed, mm/s²) | <=20,000 mm/s2 (manufacturer claim)[4] | Not documented |
| Extruder | ||
| Type (direct drive / bowden) & design name | Direct drive with hardened steel dual gears, 1.75 mm filament[1][4] | Direct-drive extruder, single[3] |
| Hotend & Nozzle | ||
| Hotend design (proprietary/standard; quick-swap mechanism?) | Second-generation 80 W bimetal hotend with a multi-metal composite hardened-tip nozzle; 0.4 mm standard, 0.2/0.5/0.8 mm optional[1][4] | Not documented |
| Max nozzle temp claimed AND firmware max temp limit (both values) | <=370 °C claimed. No firmware max_temp verified for this model[1][4] | Not documented |
| Heater cartridge power (W) | 80 W hotend heater (manufacturer figure)[1] | Not documented |
| Heated Bed & Surface | ||
| Max bed temp claimed AND firmware limit | Conflicting manufacturer figures: QIDI's own Plus4 page states a 100 °C bed temperature, 3DJake's spec table states <=120 °C. Not resolved; the lower vendor-published figure is used as the sortable value[1][4] | Not documented |
| Bed surface (material, texture, coating), single/double-sided | 6 mm aluminium-substrate heated bed with a double-sided textured PEI plate[1][4] | Not documented |
| Leveling & Z-Offset | ||
| Auto bed leveling: probe technology (inductive / strain gauge / load cell / touch probe) | Full-auto calibration; QIDI markets "hands-free automatic" levelling and does not name the probe technology on the product page[1][4] | Not documented |
| Filament Handling & Detection | ||
| Filament runout sensor (type, location) | Filament run-out sensor, plus a filament cutter and filament tangle detection (tangle mechanism not described)[4] | Not documented |
| Multi-material/multi-color capability or official upgrade path | QIDI Box multi-material unit supported; sold bundled as the Plus4 Combo[1][2] | Not documented |
| Cooling & Air Handling | ||
| Part-cooling fan(s): count, size, ducting design | Auxiliary part-cooling fan plus a chamber circulation fan; fan sizes and duct design not published[4] | Not documented |
| Electronics & Power | ||
| Input voltage (110/220 V, switch or auto) | 100-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz[4] | Not documented |
| Total rated power draw | 450 W plus 400 W for chamber heating (rated)[4] | Not documented |
| Firmware & Openness | ||
| Firmware base & current version (Klipper fork / Marlin fork / proprietary) | Klipper v0.12, described by QIDI as open source. Fork details and current release not published on the product page[1] | Not documented |
| Connectivity, UI & Camera | ||
| Display: size, type, touch? | 5-inch touchscreen, 800 x 480[1][4] | Not documented |
| WiFi (band/standard), Ethernet, USB ports, SD/flash-drive | Wi-Fi 2.4 GHz, Ethernet, USB[1][4] | USB connection and mini-SD card[3] |
| Cloud service & phone app; LAN-only mode possible? | Mobile and computer control, remote cloud or LAN-only operation[1] | Not documented |
| Camera: built-in / optional? Resolution & framerate (verify — marketing often omits real fps) | Built-in low-frame-rate camera, up to 1080p, timelapse supported[1][4] | Not documented |
| Calibration Routines & QoL | ||
| Assembly level & time from unbox to first print | QIDI claims about 10 minutes from unbox to printing[1] | Not documented |
| Power-Loss & Interruption Recovery | ||
| Power-loss recovery: mechanism (how is state saved? capacitor / eeprom / file on shutdown?) | Power-loss recovery listed; mechanism not published[4] | Not documented |
| Materials Support | ||
| Officially supported filament list | PLA, ABS, ASA, PETG, TPU, PA, PC, PA-CF/GF, PET-CF/GF, PPA-CF/GF, PPS-CF and other CF/GF-filled polymers[1][4] | 1.75 mm filament; no per-material list published on the listing[3] |
| Reliability, Support & Ecosystem | ||
| Warranty length & support reputation (evidence, not vibes) | 1-year coverage, 14-day no-reason return, 30-day price protection[1] | 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.
