Identity & Market
Manufacturer & exact marketed model name (verify the exact product identity first)Snapmaker J1S High Speed IDEX 3D Printer[1][2]Voron 2.4, current revision R2, kits shipping as Rev D and Rev D+. Sold as "Voron 2.4 R2 (Rev D+) 3D Printer Kit by LDO"[3][4]
Street price (USD; dated snapshot per entry)$1,399.00 at MatterHackers, listed as currently unavailable with a pre-order option quoting roughly 5 weeks, checked Aug 2026[1]$1,399.99 for the LDO Rev D+ kit at Fabreeko (300 mm and 350 mm are the same price), on pre-order with a mid-September estimate, checked Aug 2026. Fabreeko's live feed shows the base 2.4 kit listing at $1,299.99 and available. 3DJake lists an LDO 350 RevD kit but will not ship to the US[3][5][6]
Variants & sibling models — and how to tell them apart (spec-contamination risk)The J1s differs from the original J1 by an additional part-cooling fan. Usable volume depends on the print mode: 300 x 200 x 200 mm in default and backup modes, 160 x 200 x 200 in copy mode, 150 x 200 x 200 in mirror mode[1][2]Sizes 250, 300 and 350 mm; LDO ships Rev D and Rev D+. Colours black, space grey, blue. Do not confuse with the Trident: the 2.4 lifts the whole gantry on four belted Z motors, the Trident lifts the bed on three screws. The Rev D+ kit includes a Raspberry Pi 4B; the older 3DJake-listed RevD kit explicitly does not include a Pi[3][4][6][7]
Physical & Frame
Build volume X×Y×Z (mm) — advertised vs actually usable300 x 200 x 200 mm in default and backup modes[1]300 x 300 x 300 mm or 350 x 350 x 350 mm. Sortable value is the 350 mm kit[3][4][6]
Machine footprint (mm) & clearance needed (cable/spool overhang)539 x 401 x 464 mm[1]Not documented
Net weight (kg)25 kg net[1]Not documented
Frame construction & materialAluminium-alloy frame with one-piece die casting and linear rails; Snapmaker quotes rail repeatability of +/-0.03 mm in X/Y and +/-0.02 mm in Z[2]Blind-joint aluminium-extrusion frame with a complete panel set; stainless-steel linear rails throughout[4][6]
Enclosure: open / enclosed; panel material; door/lidNot documentedEnclosed by the supplied panel set. A Nevermore Micro V5 internal circulation filter is included in the LDO kit[6]
Kinematics & Motion Hardware
Kinematics (bedslinger i3 / CoreXY / other)IDEX — two independently driven extruders[1][2]CoreXY on linear rails, with a belted flying gantry on four Z motors[4][3]
X-axis guide type (rods / linear rails / V-wheels; size)Linear rails[2]Not documented
Stepper drivers (exact model e.g. TMC2209; UART/SPI; sensorless homing?)Not documentedLDO Leviathan board: 5 x TMC2209 plus 2 x TMC5160 HV-capable drivers, ready for 48 V upgrades[3]
Speed & Acceleration
Max print speed (claimed, mm/s)350 mm/s maximum (manufacturer claim)[2]Not documented
Max acceleration (claimed, mm/s²)10,000 mm/s2 maximum (manufacturer claim)[2]Not documented
Extruder
Type (direct drive / bowden) & design nameNot documentedClockwork 2 with a Bondtech BMG / Integrated Drive Gear Assembly, in a Stealthburner toolhead[3][4][6]
Hotend & Nozzle
Hotend design (proprietary/standard; quick-swap mechanism?)Not documentedE3D Revo Voron (24 V), all-metal, high-flow variant in the Rev D+ kit, with a 60 W heater; upgradeable to a Phaetus Rapido HF for $9.99[3][4][6]
Max nozzle temp claimed AND firmware max temp limit (both values)300 °C maximum (manufacturer claim)[1][2]Not documented
Heater cartridge power (W)Not documented60 W (E3D Revo High Flow heater)[3]
Heated Bed & Surface
Max bed temp claimed AND firmware limit100 °C maximum (manufacturer claim)[1]Not documented
Bed surface (material, texture, coating), single/double-sidedCustom dual-sided PEI glass plate: glossy glass on one face, PEI coating on the other[1][2]Cast 5083 aluminium plate with a magnetic base and a powder-coated PEI sheet; LDO silicone bed heater with edge-to-edge heating[4][3][6]
Leveling & Z-Offset
Auto bed leveling: probe technology (inductive / strain gauge / load cell / touch probe)3-point bed levelling, which Snapmaker contrasts with 9-16 point systems; assisted calibration quoted at about 10 minutes[2]Omron inductive probe supplied; Klicky-mod parts included. Voron Tap is available as an add-on rather than standard[3][4]
Electronics & Power
Mainboard model & MCU (exact chip markings if teardowns exist)Not documentedLDO x Voron Leviathan mainboard (replacing the earlier BTT Octopus), plus a Nitehawk SB USB toolhead PCB[4][3][6]
Host computer (SoC, RAM, storage) if firmware runs on embedded Linux1 GB RAM, 8 GB eMMC; the 5-inch display runs Android[1]Not documented
Input voltage (110/220 V, switch or auto)AC 100-240 V, 50/60 Hz, 4.4 A max input; DC 24 V, 400 W max output[1]Not documented
Total rated power draw400 W maximum output[1]Not documented
Firmware & Openness
Firmware base & current version (Klipper fork / Marlin fork / proprietary)Not named by Snapmaker; the supplied slicer is Luban, with third-party software supported[1]Klipper, hosted on a Raspberry Pi 4B (included in the Fabreeko Rev D+ kit, not in the older 3DJake RevD kit)[3][4][6]
Connectivity, UI & Camera
Display: size, type, touch?5-inch Android display, 1280 x 720[1]4.3-inch touchscreen included in the LDO kit[6]
WiFi (band/standard), Ethernet, USB ports, SD/flash-driveWi-Fi, USB cable, USB flash drive[1]Not documented
LED chamber/toolhead lightingNot documentedCOB LED strips included[3][6]
Calibration Routines & QoL
Assembly level & time from unbox to first printNot documentedSelf-assembly kit; some parts must be printed by the user, and the LDO kit supplies pre-cut, pre-crimped cables and a heat-set insert soldering tip[6]
Materials Support
Officially supported filament listPLA, ABS, HIPS, PC, TPU, TPE, PETG, ASA, PP, PVA, PA, PA-GF, PA-CF[1]Not documented
Noise & Power Consumption
Noise: claimed dB and independently measured dB (distance/method)Less than 50 dBA claimed by the manufacturer. No independent measurement; distance and method not stated[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.
