Identity & Market
Manufacturer & exact marketed model name (verify the exact product identity first)Sovol SV06[1]UniFormation GKtwo 10.3" 8K Resin Printer[2][3]
Street price (USD; dated snapshot per entry)Not documented$749.99 on uniformation3d.com but marked Sold out, checked Aug 2026 (the page shows a compare-at price of $0.00, i.e. none set)[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][4][5]UniFormation lists GKtwo variants by region and bundle (GKtwo ALL, GKtwo ALL UK) rather than by hardware, so the hardware specification is common; what changes is what ships in the box. Not to be confused with the earlier GKone[2]
Market position: superseded?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 Superseded by the SV06 ACE[6][1]Not documented
Physical & Frame
Build volume X×Y×Z (mm) — advertised vs actually usable220 x 220 x 250 mm advertised[1]228 x 128 x 245 mm[2][3]
Machine footprint (mm) & clearance needed (cable/spool overhang)Not documented350 x 315 x 455 mm[2][3]
Net weight (kg)Not documented20 kg packaged (UniFormation publishes package weight, not net weight)[2][3]
Frame construction & materialOpen i3-style frame, supplied as an assembly kit[1]Not documented
Enclosure: open / enclosed; panel material; door/lidOpen frame, no enclosure[1]Open-frame MSLA with a UV-blocking cover[2][3]
Kinematics & Motion Hardware
Kinematics (bedslinger i3 / CoreXY / other)Cartesian i3 bedslinger[1]MSLA — photocuring LCD, single Z axis, straight-lift peel[2][3]
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
Extruder
Type (direct drive / bowden) & design nameAll-metal direct-drive extruder with planetary gear reduction[1]Not documented
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
Heated Bed & Surface
Bed surface (material, texture, coating), single/double-sidedFlexible PEI build surface[1]Not documented
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
Electronics & Power
Input voltage (110/220 V, switch or auto)Not documented110/220 V[2][3]
Firmware & Openness
Firmware base & current version (Klipper fork / Marlin fork / proprietary)Not documentedNot named. Slicers: CHITUBOX, the GKtwo slicer, and Lychee. File format STL[2][3]
Connectivity, UI & Camera
Display: size, type, touch?Not documented5-inch touchscreen (control panel — not the masking LCD, see W1)[2][3]
WiFi (band/standard), Ethernet, USB ports, SD/flash-driveUSB connection; micro-SD card. No Wi-Fi[1]USB file transfer[2][3]
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]402.5-405 nm photopolymer resin. No closed compatibility list published[2][3]
Independently Measured Performance
Dimensional accuracy measurements (third-party, with numbers)Not documentedPrinting tolerance +/-0.1 mm for lengths up to 100 mm, +/-0.1% beyond — a manufacturer specification, not an independent measurement[2]
Resin & MSLA
Masking LCDNot documented10.3-inch masking LCD, 7680 x 4320 px (8K), XY pixel pitch 29.6 um (manufacturer specification)[2][3]
Light sourceNot documentedPhotocuring LCD light engine at 402.5-405 nm. UniFormation does not publish the LED count or optical design on this page[2][3]
Layer exposure timesNot documented2-3 s per layer at 0.05 mm layer height (manufacturer figure — one of the few makers here that states the layer height its exposure figure assumes). Sortable value is the midpoint[2][3]
Layer height rangeNot documented0.03, 0.05 and 0.1 mm (three discrete settings, not a continuous range)[2][3]
Resin vat & feedingNot documentedResin vat capacity 0.7 kg, with built-in resin heating: UniFormation quotes warming to 95 F (35 C) in 8 minutes from 50 F. No auto-refill and no level sensing published[2][3]
Fume extractionNot documentedBuilt-in odour filter[2][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.
