ClassBEDSLINGERINDUSTRIAL
Identity & Market
Manufacturer & exact marketed model name (verify the exact product identity first)Sovol SV06[1]UltiMaker S7[2]
Street price (USD; dated snapshot per entry)Not documented$5,999.00 for the standard model at 3D Universe, in stock, checked Aug 2026[2]
Variants & sibling models — and how to tell them apart (spec-contamination risk)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[1][3][4]Same 330 x 240 x 300 mm envelope as the S5 and S8. The S7 is distinguished from the S5 by a PEI-coated flexible build plate (rather than glass) and dual-band Wi-Fi; from the S8 by nozzle temperature (S8 reaches 340 °C) and speed (S8 quotes 500 mm/s and 50,000 mm/s2)[2][5][6]
Market position: superseded? successor announced?No 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 Superseded by the SV06 ACE[7][1]Superseded by the S8, launched March 2025, which UltiMaker markets as four times more productive[6][8]
Physical & Frame
Build volume X×Y×Z (mm) — advertised vs actually usable220 x 220 x 250 mm advertised[1]330 x 240 x 300 mm[2]
Machine footprint (mm) & clearance needed (cable/spool overhang)Not documented495 x 585 x 780 mm with the spool holder[2]
Frame construction & materialOpen i3-style frame, supplied as an assembly kit[1]Fully assembled professional chassis[2]
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]Dual-extrusion gantry with auto nozzle-lifting and swappable print cores; kinematic layout not published[2]
Z-axis: leadscrew count & type, sync mechanism, anti-backlashDual Z-axis motors[1]Not documented
Stepper drivers (exact model e.g. TMC2209; UART/SPI; sensorless homing?)TMC2209 drivers on a 32-bit silent board (Sovol description, not verified against a board photo)[1]Not documented
Speed & Acceleration
Max volumetric flow claimed (mm³/s)Not documentedBuild speed under 24 mm3/s (manufacturer figure)[2]
Extruder
Type (direct drive / bowden) & design nameAll-metal direct-drive extruder with planetary gear reduction[1]Dual extrusion with swappable print cores[2]
Filament diameterNot documented2.85 mm[2]
Hotend & Nozzle
Hotend design (proprietary/standard; quick-swap mechanism?)All-metal hotend rated to 300 °C. MK8-style nozzle[1]Not documented
Max nozzle temp claimed AND firmware max temp limit (both values)300 °C claimed[1]Not documented
Stock nozzle size & sizes included in boxNot documented0.4 mm standard; 0.25, 0.6 and 0.8 mm available separately[2]
Heated Bed & Surface
Max bed temp claimed AND firmware limitNot documentedPEI-coated flexible build plate, 20-140 °C[2]
Bed surface (material, texture, coating), single/double-sidedFlexible PEI build surface[1]PEI-coated flexible build plate[2]
Leveling & Z-Offset
Auto bed leveling: probe technology (inductive / strain gauge / load cell / touch probe)Automatic levelling over 25 points; probe technology not stated on the listing[1]Not documented
Mesh grid size (probe point count — firmware evidence)25 points (manufacturer claim)[1]Not documented
Connectivity, UI & Camera
WiFi (band/standard), Ethernet, USB ports, SD/flash-driveUSB connection; micro-SD card. No Wi-Fi[1]Wi-Fi 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, LAN, USB[2]
Power-Loss & Interruption Recovery
Power-loss recovery: mechanism (how is state saved? capacitor / eeprom / file on shutdown?)Resume-after-power-loss supported; mechanism not published[1]Not documented
Materials Support
Officially supported filament list1.75 mm filament; Sovol does not publish a per-material list for this model beyond the 300 °C hotend rating[1]Not documented
Noise & Power Consumption
Noise: claimed dB and independently measured dB (distance/method)Not documentedUnder 50 dBA operating sound, manufacturer figure. No independent measurement[2]
Independently Measured Performance
Dimensional accuracy measurements (third-party, with numbers)Not documentedXYZ resolution 6.9 / 6.9 / 2.5 micron (manufacturer specification)[2]

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.
