Sovol is back with a bigger version of the SV06 ACE — the SV06 Plus ACE. This plus-sized 3D printer has all the good stuff we liked from the SV06 ACE but with a helmet-sized 300×300 build plate. It runs vanilla Klipper, which we love, and is open source. It has the same high flow hotend, fast speeds, and solid one-touch bed leveling.
Its best feature might be how easy it is on your wallet. The Sovol SV06 Plus ACE retails for $349 and has launched at a sale price of $299. Core XY machines maybe this year’s fad, but they are costly when they reach the size of the SVO6 Plus ACE (if you can find them at all.)
Sovol made excellent use of Klipper’s vibration calibrations and pressure advance to let you print big with speed and quality. This version has travel moves of up to 500mm/s and an average print speed of around 250mm/s. Its 300x300mm build plate makes it our favorite recommendation for cosplayers and one of the best 3D printers we tested at this price.
The only downside of this machine is the noisy case fan and a faulty cable we received to connect the screen. The cables can develop a fault where they are bent sharply at the factory. The replacement cable worked fine as long as it was not flexed in the trouble spot. Hopefully, this will be addressed for the production units.
