Identity & Market
Manufacturer & exact marketed model name (verify the exact product identity first)Roboze ARGO 500 3D Printer[1]Sovol SV06[2]
Variants & sibling models — and how to tell them apart (spec-contamination risk)Dual-extruder counterpart to the single-extruder ARGO 350. Differences that show in a spec box: 500 mm cube vs 350 x 300 x 300, 1700 kg vs 1200 kg, 11-inch vs 7-inch screen, 0.4 and 0.6 mm nozzles vs 0.4 mm only. Nozzle and chamber temperatures are identical on both. Pricing note: Not published. Top 3D Shop lists it as available on backorder with a 3-5 week lead time but requires a quote request rather than showing a price, checked Aug 2026[1][3]Base model of a four-way family: SV06 (220x220x250, Marlin-era silent board), SV06 Plus (300x300x340), SV06 ACE and SV06 Plus ACE (both Klipper, ceramic hotend, camera, 4.3-inch touchscreen). ACE specs must not be applied to the non-ACE machines[2][4][5]
Market position: superseded? successor announced?Not documentedNo longer listed on Sovol's own store: the current 3D-printer collection contains only SV08, SV08 Max, Zero, SV06 ACE and SV06 Plus ACE. 3DJake also shows it sold out and delisted. Superseded by the SV06 ACE[6][2]

Kinematics & Motion Hardware
Kinematics (bedslinger i3 / CoreXY / other)CoreXY, dual extruder[1]Cartesian i3 bedslinger[2]
Z-axis: leadscrew count & type, sync mechanism, anti-backlashNot documentedDual Z-axis motors[2]
Stepper drivers (exact model e.g. TMC2209; UART/SPI; sensorless homing?)Not documentedTMC2209 drivers on a 32-bit silent board (Sovol description, not verified against a board photo)[2]
Extruder
Type (direct drive / bowden) & design nameTwo extruders, 1.75 mm filament[1]All-metal direct-drive extruder with planetary gear reduction[2]
Hotend & Nozzle
Hotend design (proprietary/standard; quick-swap mechanism?)Not documentedAll-metal hotend rated to 300 °C. MK8-style nozzle[2]
Max nozzle temp claimed AND firmware max temp limit (both values)450 °C maximum nozzle temperature (manufacturer specification)[1]300 °C claimed[2]
Stock nozzle size & sizes included in box0.4 and 0.6 mm[1]Not documented
Heated Bed & Surface
Bed surface (material, texture, coating), single/double-sidedRemovable polymer build sheets held by vacuum[1]Flexible PEI build surface[2]
Leveling & Z-Offset
Auto bed leveling: probe technology (inductive / strain gauge / load cell / touch probe)Not documentedAutomatic levelling over 25 points; probe technology not stated on the listing[2]
Mesh grid size (probe point count — firmware evidence)Not documented25 points (manufacturer claim)[2]
Firmware & Openness
Firmware base & current version (Klipper fork / Marlin fork / proprietary)Proprietary; the recommended software is Roboze Prometheus[1]Not documented
Connectivity, UI & Camera
Display: size, type, touch?11-inch colour touchscreen[1]Not documented
WiFi (band/standard), Ethernet, USB ports, SD/flash-driveUSB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi[1]USB connection; micro-SD card. No Wi-Fi[2]
Power-Loss & Interruption Recovery
Power-loss recovery: mechanism (how is state saved? capacitor / eeprom / file on shutdown?)Not documentedResume-after-power-loss supported; mechanism not published[2]
Materials Support
Officially supported filament listPEEK, Carbon PEEK, Carbon PA, ULTEM AM9085F, PC, Functional-nylon, ABS-ESD, PP, Flex-TPU, Strong-ABS, Ultra-PLA and others[1]1.75 mm filament; Sovol does not publish a per-material list for this model beyond the 300 °C hotend rating[2]
Independently Measured Performance
Dimensional accuracy measurements (third-party, with numbers)XY accuracy 0.01 mm, Z accuracy 0.025 mm (manufacturer specification)[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.
