Sovol announced the open-source M1D 3D printer, an independent dual-extruder (IDEX) model with seven toolheads that can be swapped in roughly five seconds. The printer has a print volume of 300 mm x 300 mm x 350 mm and uses two independent nozzles; one nozzle remains fixed while the other can accept any of the six interchangeable heads. Print speeds reach up to 600 mm/s with an acceleration of 10000 mm/s2. The advanced version includes a heated enclosure that maintains an internal temperature of 60 C (140 F), enabling printing of high-temperature materials such as ASA, PA and PC. The toolhead interface allows rapid swaps, and standby heads stay warm for immediate use. The printer includes automatic bed leveling with nozzle Z-axis compensation via an eddy current sensor, X/Y nozzle cameras, vibration compensation, and a 720p chamber camera that will receive AI-based obstruction and filament-spaghetti detection in a future firmware update. The seven toolheads support water-soluble materials for sacrificial supports, molds and hollow parts. Sovol claims the combination of speed and tool changing can reduce multi-color print time by up to five times compared with competing printers and that waste is minimized. The system ships with OrcaSlicer as the default slicing software. The M1D is being offered through a Kickstarter campaign that has raised more than $2.8 million, exceeding the original $191,254 goal. Early-bird pricing is $1,299 for the Essential model and $1,599 for the Advanced model with the heated enclosure, with shipments expected to begin in November.
