| Property | QIDI Plus4COREXY | Sovol SV07 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 SV07 Plus[3][4] |
| 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)[5] | 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] | $199 at 3D Printers Online Store, reduced from $379, but Out of Stock, checked Aug 2026. Sovol's own comparison quotes $259 sale / $309-379 regular[3][4] |
| 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] | Large-format version of the SV07. Distinguishers: 300x300x350 mm vs 220x220x250, 600 W MeanWell vs 350 W, 25-point levelling, and USB Type-C added. Both are quoted at 500 mm/s and 300 °C. Note Sovol's own comparison table gives 300x300x350 while some listings write 300x300x340[4][3] |
| Market position: superseded?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 | Superseded at the top of the large-format line by the Plus5, launched 5 August 2026 with 18% more build volume; Plus4 still listed and in stock Aug 2026[6][7] | Delisted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; not present in the current 3D-printer collection[8] |
| 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][5] | 300 x 300 x 350 mm advertised[3][4] |
| Machine footprint (mm) & clearance needed (cable/spool overhang) | 505 x 487 x 550 mm[5] | 632 x 532 x 735 mm[3] |
| Net weight (kg) | 32 kg gross (3DJake). QIDI does not publish a net weight on the product page[5] | 14 kg[3] |
| Frame construction & material | Enclosed CoreXY chassis with double-layer chamber insulation; QIDI does not publish a frame material breakdown[1] | Open frame, assembly kit[4] |
| Enclosure: open / enclosed; panel material; door/lid | Fully enclosed, double-layer insulated chamber with second-generation active heating to 65 °C[1][5] | Open frame, no enclosure[4] |
| 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][5] | Not documented |
| Kinematics & Motion Hardware | ||
| Kinematics (bedslinger i3 / CoreXY / other) | CoreXY[5] | Cartesian i3 bedslinger[4] |
| 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)[5] | Up to 500 mm/s (manufacturer claim); the retailer listing gives a 250-500 mm/s working range[4][3] |
| Max acceleration (claimed, mm/s²) | <=20,000 mm/s2 (manufacturer claim)[5] | Not documented |
| Extruder | ||
| Type (direct drive / bowden) & design name | Direct drive with hardened steel dual gears, 1.75 mm filament[1][5] | Dual-gear direct drive with planetary gearbox[4] |
| 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][5] | All-metal hotend to 300 °C, 0.4 mm nozzle[4][3] |
| Max nozzle temp claimed AND firmware max temp limit (both values) | <=370 °C claimed. No firmware max_temp verified for this model[1][5] | <=300 °C claimed[4][3] |
| 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][5] | <=100 °C claimed[3] |
| Bed surface (material, texture, coating), single/double-sided | 6 mm aluminium-substrate heated bed with a double-sided textured PEI plate[1][5] | 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.
