3D Printer Information
Release Information
Released on May 2023, this 3D printer is part of the SV series by Sovol.
Access Type: Open Source
Being Open Source, this printer offers greater flexibility for modifications, repairs, and upgrades. It allows users to customize firmware and access a wide range of third-party tools and software, enhancing maintainability and compatibility.
Printer Design: Bedslinger
Bedslinger printers have a moving bed that travels back and forth, making them easier to maintain and more affordable due to simpler mechanics.
Max Speed: 250 mm/s
This printer achieves speeds comparable to the average for most models.
Bed Surface: PEI
PEI surfaces offer strong adhesion for various filaments and are often reinforced for durability and ease of use.
Max Print Size: 220 x 220 x 250 mm
This printer offers a similar build volume comparable to most average printers like the Ender 3.
Material Compatibility
PLA filament supported
Beginner-Friendly and Versatile. Easy to print, eco-friendly, and ideal for decorative or general-purpose projects. PLA is safe to print without an enclosure, comes in various colors, and offers excellent dimensional accuracy. Pros: Low warp, eco-friendly. Cons: Not heat-resistant, brittle under stress. Use Cases: Prototypes, decorative items, cosplay props, toys, and low-stress applications.
PETG filament supported
Durable and Reliable. A great balance between strength and ease of printing. PETG is strong, water-resistant, and perfect for mechanical or outdoor parts. It resists warping but may require fine-tuning to avoid stringing. Pros: High strength, water-resistant. Cons: Stringing can occur, sensitive to over-extrusion. Use Cases: Mechanical parts, food-safe containers, water bottles, protective enclosures, and outdoor tools.
TPU filament supported
Flexible and Elastic. A rubber-like filament perfect for wearable or shock-absorbing parts. TPU offers high flexibility and wear resistance, making it ideal for phone cases, gaskets, and seals. Printing requires slow speeds and careful calibration. Pros: Excellent flexibility, wear-resistant. Cons: Challenging to print, requires proper setup. Use Cases: Phone cases, straps, gaskets, flexible joints, tires, and wearable parts.
ABS filament not supported
Tough and Heat-Resistant. Durable material ideal for functional prototypes and industrial parts. ABS withstands high temperatures and impact, making it great for demanding applications. However, it requires an enclosure to prevent warping and emits fumes during printing. Pros: Highly durable, can be post-processed easily. Cons: Requires enclosure, emits toxic fumes. Use Cases: Automotive components, electronic housings, toys (e.g., LEGO bricks), and durable tools.
Nylon filament not supported
Strong and Wear-Resistant. Ideal for mechanical parts that endure stress or friction. Nylon is highly durable and flexible, with excellent chemical resistance. It requires high temperatures, careful moisture control, and an enclosure for optimal results. Pros: High strength, wear-resistant. Cons: Hygroscopic, requires high temps and enclosure. Use Cases: Gears, hinges, bushings, mechanical tools, and parts exposed to wear or friction.
ASA filament not supported
Weatherproof and UV-Stable. The best choice for outdoor applications and exposure to sunlight. ASA combines the toughness of ABS with superior UV and weather resistance. It’s perfect for outdoor signage or automotive parts but requires an enclosure to print effectively. Pros: UV-resistant, durable. Cons: Requires enclosure, emits fumes. Use Cases: Outdoor signage, automotive trim, weatherproof enclosures, and UV-exposed components.
