Sovol SV06

Sovol’s SV06 is a budget friendly 3D printer that borrows heavily from Prusa’s i3 open source design. It’s a solid machine with quality prints, but a bit slow in today’s race for speed.

Product details

  • 【Classic I3 Structure Combines with Sovol New Design】Different from most 3D printers run by wheels in the market, SV06 has a classic I3 structure which avoids wear and tear of wheels and multiple replacements and it is widely applied into industry. We did something new to make it more applicable for household use. Modular design allows you to assemble SV06 within 5 steps easily.
  • 【Planetary Dual Gear Direct Drive】Sovol self-developed All Metal Direct Drive Extruder with planetary dual gear set, provide SV06 with higher drive ratio and a lighter motor, helps to achieve more accurate extrusion. Add large external knob for easy feeding.
  • 【300℃ High Temp Printing】All metal Hotend Setup makes it possible to print up to 300℃. No need to deal with PTFE replacement anymore, and even no need to flash the firmware, you can print with different materials better and more easily. ( Enclosure is still needed if you want to print over 260℃.)
  • 【25-point Auto Leveling】With inductive sensor, detect the metal print bed through 25 points automatically and compensate the unevenness of the heated bed. The fast, smart, precise detection and compensation help you to get the bed leveled perfectly and get an fantastic first layer. Note: Set the height of initial layer to 0.3mm when you slice that would help you to printer better initial layer and make the filament stick to the plate better.
  • 【PEI Build Plate】The flexible PEI-coated build plate with mesh surface design makes the prints can be removed easily without any tools. 220*220*250mm print size, enough for daily use and household use.
