| Property | QIDI X-Max 3COREXY | Sovol SV07BEDSLINGER |
|---|---|---|
| Identity | ||
| Brand | QIDI | Sovol |
| Class | COREXY | BEDSLINGER |
| Identity & Market | ||
| Manufacturer & exact marketed model name (verify the exact product identity first) | QIDI X-Max 3, listed by QIDI as "Qidi Tech X-Max 3 3D Printer" and in navigation as X-Max3[1][2] | Sovol SV07[3][4] |
| Release date (announcement and actual shipping) | Not published by QIDI; the product page carries a discontinuation notice rather than a launch date (checked Aug 2026)[1] | Not documented |
| Street price (USD; dated snapshot per entry) | $899.00 (from a $999.00 sale reference) on us.qidi3d.com but marked Sold Out and discontinued, checked Aug 2026. 3D Printers Online Store lists $1,099 USD, also out of stock[1][5] | $299 at 3D Printers Online Store but Out of Stock, checked Aug 2026. Sovol's own comparison article quotes $259. No in-stock listing found[4][6] |
| Variants & sibling models — and how to tell them apart (spec-contamination risk) | Same-generation siblings X-Plus 3 (280x280x270, 500 mm/s, 800 W) and X-Smart 3 (175x180x170, no chamber heating, 300 °C, 350 W). All three share the Cortex-A53 1.5 GHz / 1 GB DDR3 / 8 GB eMMC control board, so shared-board specs are not evidence of shared print specs. Replaced by the Max4[2][7][8][9] | Base of a two-model pair with the SV07 Plus (300x300x350, 600 W MeanWell PSU, 25-point levelling, adds USB Type-C). The SV07 has a 350 W MeanWell PSU. Both are quoted by Sovol at 500 mm/s and 300 °C, so PSU wattage and build volume are the reliable discriminators[6][4][10] |
| Market position: superseded? successor announced? | Discontinued and out of production; QIDI directs buyers to the Max4[1] | Delisted by Sovol; not present in the current 3D-printer collection. 3DJake shows it sold out and no longer stocked[11][3] |
| Physical & Frame | ||
| Build volume X×Y×Z (mm) — advertised vs actually usable | 325 x 325 x 315 mm advertised[1][2][5] | 220 x 220 x 250 mm advertised[3][4] |
| Machine footprint (mm) & clearance needed (cable/spool overhang) | 553 x 553 x 601 mm[2][5] | 460 x 457 x 625 mm[4] |
| Net weight (kg) | 30.2 kg net[2][5] | 9.8 kg machine weight; 12.9 kg boxed[4] |
| Frame construction & material | Enclosed CoreXY chassis, fully assembled from the factory. QIDI does not publish a frame-material breakdown[2] | Open frame, supplied as an assembly kit[3] |
| Enclosure: open / enclosed; panel material; door/lid | Fully enclosed, with a chamber circulation blower and activated-carbon air filter[2] | Open frame; 3DJake records "Heated chamber: No"[3] |
| Passive chamber temperature reached (if enclosed; measured values preferred) | 65 °C maximum, independent chamber heating (manufacturer claim)[1][2] | Not documented |
| Kinematics & Motion Hardware | ||
| Kinematics (bedslinger i3 / CoreXY / other) | CoreXY[2] | Cartesian i3 bedslinger[3] |
| X-axis guide type (rods / linear rails / V-wheels; size) | Linear optical axis (polished steel rod) of high-strength steel[2] | Not documented |
| Z-axis: leadscrew count & type, sync mechanism, anti-backlash | Double Z axis[2] | Not documented |
| Speed & Acceleration | ||
| Max print speed (claimed, mm/s) | <=600 mm/s (manufacturer claim)[1][2][5] | Conflicting manufacturer figures: Sovol's own comparison says up to 500 mm/s, 3DJake's feature text says up to 250 mm/s, and the retailer listing gives a 250-500 mm/s range. 500 is the headline claim, 250 the working figure[6][3][4] |
| Max acceleration (claimed, mm/s²) | 20,000 mm/s2 (manufacturer claim)[1] | Not documented |
| Max volumetric flow claimed (mm³/s) | 35 mm3/s extruder flow (manufacturer claim)[2] | Not documented |
| Extruder | ||
| Type (direct drive / bowden) & design name | High-flow direct-drive extruder; QIDI states a 9.5:1 gear ratio for this model[1][2] | All-metal dual-gear direct drive with a planetary gearbox[3][6] |
| Gear ratio & drive gear material | 9.5:1[1] | Not documented |
| Hotend & Nozzle | ||
| Hotend design (proprietary/standard; quick-swap mechanism?) | Ceramic heating core. Two interchangeable nozzle-head sets shipped: copper alloy for standard materials, hardened steel for abrasives. 0.4 mm stock, 0.2/0.6/0.8 mm optional[1][2] | All-metal hotend to 300 °C[3][6] |
| Max nozzle temp claimed AND firmware max temp limit (both values) | <=350 °C claimed[1][2][5] | <=300 °C claimed[3][4][6] |
| Heated Bed & Surface | ||
| Max bed temp claimed AND firmware limit | <=120 °C claimed[2][5] | <=100 °C claimed[4] |
| Bed surface (material, texture, coating), single/double-sided | Double-sided flexible magnetic plate (QIDI's "HF" plate)[1][2] | Reversible PEI build plate[3] |
| Leveling & Z-Offset | ||
| Auto bed leveling: probe technology (inductive / strain gauge / load cell / touch probe) | Automatic levelling via Klipper adaptive meshing; probe technology not named by QIDI[1] | Automatic bed levelling over 25 points; probe technology not stated[3] |
| Mesh grid size (probe point count — firmware evidence) | Not documented | 25 points (manufacturer claim)[3] |
| Filament Handling & Detection | ||
| Filament runout sensor (type, location) | Filament detection fitted; type and location not published[2] | Not documented |
| Cooling & Air Handling | ||
| Part-cooling fan(s): count, size, ducting design | Not documented | Triple-fan cooling (Sovol's description; fan sizes and duct design not published)[3][6] |

| Total rated power draw | 900 W rated[2][5] | Not documented |
| Firmware & Openness | ||
| Firmware base & current version (Klipper fork / Marlin fork / proprietary) | Klipper with the Fluidd web console. Fork and version not published[1] | Klipper[3][6] |
| Connectivity, UI & Camera | ||
| Display: size, type, touch? | 5-inch touchscreen, 800 x 480[2] | 5-inch touchscreen (Sovol markets it as a "5-inch HD Klipper screen")[3][6] |
| WiFi (band/standard), Ethernet, USB ports, SD/flash-drive | Wi-Fi (QIDI states 150M 2.4G), Ethernet, USB flash drive[2] | Wi-Fi and USB Type-C[3][6][4] |
| Materials Support | ||
| Officially supported filament list | ABS, PLA, PETG, TPU, nylon, carbon fibre, PC[5] | PLA, PETG, TPU, ABS, wood-filled; Sovol also lists carbon fibre[4][6] |

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.
