Identity & Market
Manufacturer & exact marketed model name (verify the exact product identity first)Sovol SV06 Plus ACE 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)$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]$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)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][4]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 350 mm advertised[1]330 x 330 x 400 mm[3]
Machine footprint (mm) & clearance needed (cable/spool overhang)510 x 575 x 710 mm including screen and filament holder[1]530 x 500 x 720 mm body dimensions[3]
Net weight (kg)Not documented31 kg net, 36 kg gross[3]
Frame construction & materialOpen i3-style frame; Sovol publishes no frame-material breakdown[1]CNC-machined all-metal frame with carbon-rod components[3]
Enclosure: open / enclosed; panel material; door/lidOpen frame, no enclosure[1]Not documented
Kinematics & Motion Hardware
Kinematics (bedslinger i3 / CoreXY / other)Cartesian i3 bedslinger[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 print speed (claimed, mm/s)500 mm/s maximum (manufacturer claim)[1]Not documented
Max acceleration (claimed, mm/s²)15,000 mm/s2 maximum (manufacturer claim)[1]Not documented
Extruder
Type (direct drive / bowden) & design namePlanetary double-gear direct drive, 1:7.5 reduction[1]Lightweight all-metal direct drive with a twill drive wheel[3]
Gear ratio & drive gear material1:7.5[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]VZ High Speed hotend[3]
Max nozzle temp claimed AND firmware max temp limit (both values)<=300 °C claimed[1]Not documented
Heated Bed & Surface
Max bed temp claimed AND firmware limit100 °C claimed[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-sidedDouble-sided textured PEI plate[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)Automatic levelling (Sovol calls the ACE upgrade an added automatic levelling function); probe technology not named on this page[1]Not documented
Filament Handling & Detection
Filament runout sensor (type, location)Filament run-out sensor fitted; type and location not published[1]Not documented
Electronics & Power
Mainboard model & MCU (exact chip markings if teardowns exist)Not documented32-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 LinuxRockchip RK3308 ("3308 chip"), 512 MB RAM, 8 GB eMMC[1]Not documented
PSU (brand, wattage, rail voltage)500 W / 24 V, 100-240 VAC 50/60 Hz[1]Not documented
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]Klipper or RepRapFirmware[3]
Connectivity, UI & Camera
Display: size, type, touch?4.3-inch capacitive touchscreen[1]5-inch DSI display; requires a compatible host computer, which is not included[3]
WiFi (band/standard), Ethernet, USB ports, SD/flash-driveWi-Fi 2.4 GHz only, WPA2 only (WPA3 explicitly not supported)[1]Not documented
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]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]
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]Not documented
Materials Support
Officially supported filament listPLA, PETG, TPU, PVA[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.
