Identity & Market
Manufacturer & exact marketed model name (verify the exact product identity first)Raise3D Pro3 3D Printer[1][2]VzBoT AWD 330, also written Vz330. Sold as "DIY VzBoT AWD 330 VZ330 3D Printer Kit" by Mellow[3]
Street price (USD; dated snapshot per entry)$2,999.00 on Raise3D's own store, available, checked Aug 2026[2]$1,360.00 at Mellow, available and shipping from China, checked Aug 2026[3]
Variants & sibling models — and how to tell them apart (spec-contamination risk)A crowded family with materially different prices: Pro3 $2,999, Pro3 Hyper Speed Package $4,999, Pro3 HS $4,599, Pro3 Plus HS $6,099. Build volume also changes with head count: 300 x 300 x 300 mm single-head, 255 x 300 x 300 mm dual-head. Raise3D's smaller E-series (E2 $1,999, E2CF $2,499, E3 $2,499) and the resin DF2 line are separate machines entirely[2][4][1]Ordered by colour (black or silver) and mains voltage (110 V or 220 V). Mellow describes the kit as a test version that still requires the buyer to print some components, and the 5-inch DSI screen requires a host computer that supports DSI — neither is included[3]
Physical & Frame
Build volume X×Y×Z (mm) — advertised vs actually usable300 x 300 x 300 mm with one extruder; 255 x 300 x 300 mm with both[1]330 x 330 x 400 mm[3]
Machine footprint (mm) & clearance needed (cable/spool overhang)620 x 626 x 760 mm[1]530 x 500 x 720 mm body dimensions[3]

Kinematics & Motion Hardware
Kinematics (bedslinger i3 / CoreXY / other)Dual-head with an electronic lifting system[1]CoreXY in an AWD (all-wheel drive) arrangement — two motors on X and two on Y, four in total for the XY plane, each on its own external driver[3]
X-axis guide type (rods / linear rails / V-wheels; size)Not documentedLDO 9 mm rail on X; LDO 12 mm dual rails on Y; 10 mm optical shafts on Z[3]
Stepper drivers (exact model e.g. TMC2209; UART/SPI; sensorless homing?)Not documentedFour external TMC5160 drivers for the LDO XY motors[3]
Speed & Acceleration
Max travel speedPrint-head travel speed 30-150 mm/s (manufacturer figure)[1]Not documented
Extruder
Type (direct drive / bowden) & design nameDual print heads, 1.75 mm filament[1]Lightweight all-metal direct drive with a twill drive wheel[3]
Hotend & Nozzle
Hotend design (proprietary/standard; quick-swap mechanism?)Not documentedVZ High Speed hotend[3]
Max nozzle temp claimed AND firmware max temp limit (both values)300 °C maximum nozzle temperature[1]Not documented
Stock nozzle size & sizes included in box0.4 mm default; 0.2, 0.6, 0.8 and 1.0 mm available[1]Not documented
Heated Bed & Surface
Max bed temp claimed AND firmware limit120 °C maximum build-plate temperature, silicone heater[1]120 °C maximum bed temperature (manufacturer claim)[3]
Bed heater type (DC/AC mains) & wattageNot documented750 W silicone bed heater on an 8 mm aluminium plate[3]
Bed surface (material, texture, coating), single/double-sidedFlexible steel plate with BuildTak[1]8 mm aluminium plate with a magnetic spring-steel PEI-coated sheet[3]
Leveling & Z-Offset
Auto bed leveling: probe technology (inductive / strain gauge / load cell / touch probe)Mesh levelling with flatness detection[1]Not documented
Cooling & Air Handling
Chamber/exhaust fan & filtration (activated carbon / HEPA)HEPA filter with activated charcoal[1]Not documented
Electronics & Power
Mainboard model & MCU (exact chip markings if teardowns exist)Motion controller Atmel ARM Cortex-M4 at 120 MHz with FPU; logic controller NXP ARM Cortex-A9 quad-core at 1 GHz[1]32-bit mainboard, quoted by Mellow at 550 Hz. Exact board model not named on the listing[3]
Host computer (SoC, RAM, storage) if firmware runs on embedded Linux1 GB RAM, 8 GB onboard flash, embedded Linux[1]Not documented
Input voltage (110/220 V, switch or auto)100-240 V AC, 50/60 Hz input; 24 V DC, 600 W output[1]Not documented
Total rated power draw600 W output[1]Not documented
Firmware & Openness
Firmware base & current version (Klipper fork / Marlin fork / proprietary)Embedded Linux on the logic controller; slicing is ideaMaker. Firmware base not published[1]Klipper or RepRapFirmware[3]
Connectivity, UI & Camera

Camera: built-in / optional? Resolution & framerate (verify — marketing often omits real fps)Live camera fitted; resolution not published[1]Not documented
Calibration Routines & QoL
Assembly level & time from unbox to first printNot documentedSelf-assembly kit; some parts must be printed by the buyer[3]
Materials Support
Officially supported filament listPLA, ABS, HIPS, PC, TPU, TPE, PETG, ASA, PP, PVA, nylon, composites and metal/wood-filled grades[1]Not documented
Noise & Power Consumption
Noise: claimed dB and independently measured dB (distance/method)Under 55 dB(A) while printing, manufacturer figure. No independent measurement; distance and method not stated[1]Not documented
Independently Measured Performance
Dimensional accuracy measurements (third-party, with numbers)XYZ step size 0.78125 / 0.78125 / 0.078125 micron (manufacturer specification, not an accuracy measurement)[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.
