| Property | Sovol SV06 Plus ACEBEDSLINGER | Sovol ZeroCOREXY |
|---|---|---|
| Identity | ||
| Brand | Sovol | Sovol |
| Class | BEDSLINGER | COREXY |
| Identity & Market | ||
| Manufacturer & exact marketed model name (verify the exact product identity first) | Sovol SV06 Plus ACE 3D Printer[1][2] | Sovol Zero 3D Printer[3][2] |
| Street price (USD; dated snapshot per entry) | $299.00 on sovol3d.com against a $349.00 compare-at price, in stock and shipping from US/EU/CA/AU/UK/CN warehouses, checked Aug 2026[1][2] | $389.00 on sovol3d.com against a $499.00 compare-at price, but marked Sold out, checked Aug 2026. Sovol's own announcement article quotes from $359.00[3][2][4] |
| Variants & sibling models — and how to tell them apart (spec-contamination risk) | Larger sibling of the SV06 ACE ($239, 220x220x250). Differs from the non-ACE SV06 Plus by Z height (350 vs 340 mm), Klipper on an RK3308, ceramic-plate hotend, 4.3-inch capacitive touchscreen and a camera. Notably it has NO power-loss recovery, which the older SV06 did have[1][2][5] | No sibling variants at the time of checking. Sovol positions it against the Voron 0 and Bambu Lab P1P. Note the bed and nozzle limits are higher than the larger SV08 (120 vs 100 °C bed, 350 vs 300 °C nozzle), so SV08 figures must not be carried across[3][4][6] |
| Physical & Frame | ||
| Build volume X×Y×Z (mm) — advertised vs actually usable | 300 x 300 x 350 mm advertised[1] | 152.4 x 152.4 x 152.5 mm advertised[3][4] |
| Machine footprint (mm) & clearance needed (cable/spool overhang) | 510 x 575 x 710 mm including screen and filament holder[1] | 345 x 420 x 475 mm[3] |
| Frame construction & material | Open i3-style frame; Sovol publishes no frame-material breakdown[1] | Full linear rails on all axes; CoreXY with two motors sharing the moving mass[4] |
| Enclosure: open / enclosed; panel material; door/lid | Open frame, no enclosure[1] | Fully enclosed[4] |
| Kinematics & Motion Hardware | ||
| Kinematics (bedslinger i3 / CoreXY / other) | Cartesian i3 bedslinger[1] | CoreXY[4] |
| X-axis guide type (rods / linear rails / V-wheels; size) | Not documented | Linear rails on all axes[4] |
| Speed & Acceleration | ||
| Max print speed (claimed, mm/s) | 500 mm/s maximum (manufacturer claim)[1] | 1200 mm/s maximum (manufacturer claim). Sovol's own material acknowledges 700 mm/s as the realistic figure for detailed prints[3][4] |
| Max acceleration (claimed, mm/s²) | 15,000 mm/s2 maximum (manufacturer claim)[1] | 40,000 mm/s2 maximum (manufacturer claim)[3][4] |
| Max volumetric flow claimed (mm³/s) | Not documented | <=50 mm3/s (manufacturer claim)[3] |
| Extruder | ||
| Type (direct drive / bowden) & design name | Planetary double-gear direct drive, 1:7.5 reduction[1] | Planetary-gear direct-drive extruder[3] |
| Gear ratio & drive gear material | 1:7.5[1] | Not documented |
| Hotend & Nozzle | ||
| Hotend design (proprietary/standard; quick-swap mechanism?) | Ceramic heating plate hotend; 0.4 mm nozzle included, 0.6 and 0.8 mm optional[1] | Ceramic heating plate. Brass or hardened-steel nozzles in 0.2/0.4/0.6/0.8/1.0 mm[3] |
| Max nozzle temp claimed AND firmware max temp limit (both values) | <=300 °C claimed[1] | <=350 °C claimed[3][4] |
| Stock nozzle material (brass / hardened steel / plated copper / composite tip) | Not documented | Brass or hardened steel, buyer's choice[3] |
| Heated Bed & Surface | ||
| Max bed temp claimed AND firmware limit | 100 °C claimed[1] | <=120 °C claimed; Sovol states the bed is AC-heated[3][4] |
| Bed surface (material, texture, coating), single/double-sided | Double-sided textured PEI plate[1] | Double-sided PEI steel plate[3] |
| Leveling & Z-Offset | ||
| Auto bed leveling: probe technology (inductive / strain gauge / load cell / touch probe) | Automatic levelling (Sovol calls the ACE upgrade an added automatic levelling function); probe technology not named on this page[1] | Eddy-current scanning combined with pressure (force) sensing — Sovol describes it as an inductive sensor plus force sensor[3][4] |
| Filament Handling & Detection | ||
| Filament runout sensor (type, location) | Filament run-out sensor fitted; type and location not published[1] | Filament sensor fitted; type and location not published[3][4] |
| Electronics & Power | ||
| Host computer (SoC, RAM, storage) if firmware runs on embedded Linux | Rockchip RK3308 ("3308 chip"), 512 MB RAM, 8 GB eMMC[1] | Allwinner H616, 1 GB RAM, 8 GB eMMC, 64-bit[3] |
| PSU (brand, wattage, rail voltage) | 500 W / 24 V, 100-240 VAC 50/60 Hz[1] | 150 W / 24 V (this is the DC supply; the bed is separately AC-heated per Sovol)[3][4] |
| Firmware & Openness | ||
| Firmware base & current version (Klipper fork / Marlin fork / proprietary) | Klipper. Sovol does not publish the fork or version on the product page. OTA updates supported[1] | Not named on the product page beyond OTA updates and OrcaSlicer support; Sovol markets the machine as open source[3][4] |
| Connectivity, UI & Camera | ||
| Display: size, type, touch? | 4.3-inch capacitive touchscreen[1] | Not documented |
| WiFi (band/standard), Ethernet, USB ports, SD/flash-drive | Wi-Fi 2.4 GHz only, WPA2 only (WPA3 explicitly not supported)[1] | Ethernet and Wi-Fi 2.4 GHz, WPA2 only (WPA3 not supported)[3][4] |
| Camera: built-in / optional? Resolution & framerate (verify — marketing often omits real fps) | Built-in camera, default 640x480, maximum 1280x720 (Sovol writes it as 1080x720P)[1] | Built-in camera for monitoring; resolution not published[3][4] |
| Calibration Routines & QoL | ||
| Assembly level & time from unbox to first print | Not documented | Arrives preassembled[4] |
| Power-Loss & Interruption Recovery | ||
| Power-loss recovery: mechanism (how is state saved? capacitor / eeprom / file on shutdown?) | None. Sovol's own spec table states "Power Loss Recovery: None" for this model[1] | Power-loss recovery supported; mechanism not published[3][4] |
| Materials Support | ||
| Officially supported filament list | PLA, PETG, TPU, PVA[1] | PLA, PETG, TPU, PETG-CF, ABS, ASA, PA, PC[3] |
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.
