Large-format FDM~$299Sovol · released 2024
Sovol SV06 Plus ACE
Same open-Klipper philosophy as the SV06 ACE, scaled up to a 300 × 300 × 350 mm bed for $60 more. Thirty-one and a half litres at $299 puts it among the best volume-per-dollar machines here, and unlike the very large Elegoo and Anycubic bed-slingers it keeps the eddy-current bed scanning, which is the feature that stops a big plate's flatness variation ruining first layers. It is still an open frame with a 100 °C bed, so this is a large PLA and PETG machine. The assembly is more involved than the smaller model simply because the parts are bigger, and Sovol's instructions expect a little patience. For a maker who wants a big printer and full control of its firmware, there is not much else at this price.

Not published
Sovol does not publish a volumetric flow rate for the SV06 Plus ACE, so its 500 mm/s claim cannot be checked against what the hotend can actually melt. We do not estimate one.

Features

- Open Klipper firmware with root access
- Eddy-current bed scanning across a large plate
- Planetary direct-drive extruder, 300 °C hotend
- Individual spare parts available for everything
What it does well
- 31.5 litres at $299 is among the best volume-per-dollar here, and with open firmware
- Eddy-current scanning handles large-plate flatness better than a touch probe
- Full root access and complete spare-part availability
- Only $60 over the 220 mm model for 2.6 times the volume
Where it gives ground
- Open frame and a 100 °C bed rule out large parts in ABS or ASA
- More involved assembly than the smaller SV06 ACE
- No camera on a machine that runs long prints
- No published flow rate, and fit and finish trail the mainstream brands
