Which are top 4010 blowers?

So I’m thinking of upgrading SV08’s stock toolhead with Kevin aka Sam’s Frankenstein Nearly identical as image, adding EBB 36 board and tweaked to house SV08’ MS Flowtech. Superior to Xol Toolhead for overall compactness, mass distribution and design IMO!

Heard Delta’s 4010 are the way to go but cost twice as GDS’s. Used GDS 4010 24v 6500rpm with no issue but not sure they’ll keep up with SV08’s performance and not convinced of GDS 5015 blowers being noticeably heavier, spreading mass for what I’m aiming at on first place. So any guys notice real world difference between GDS and Deltas? Should I consider anything else?

Looking to buy

Hello! I'm looking at my next 3d printer and Im very highly considering this one. I'm open to others as well but would really like to either try out a delta style or flying gantry printer. Saw this in person at my local micro center and liked it so I'm thinking of getting it. Any common/immediate upgrades that are recommended?

What to do

Im in conflict....I finally took some time to install the carage for the toolchanger....but not on the standard voron but my Sv08 ....I had this one taking dust fir 15 months because I really didn't need that one running. Ofcourse it's running main klipper/ canbus and so one.But it wil never be a voron 2 4 so I do have a frame ....ldo motors ...pi and the huge mainboard from bigtreetech tech what im missing is the bigger pullys the rails and the powersource to build another compleet voron 2.4. Also missing the buildplate....and I was thinking can I just dismantle the sovol sv08 and rebuild it all on the voron frame would it be worth the time ? I realy want a toolchanger and my 1ste idea was building the sv08 as toolchanger and as soon bondtech comes finaly out with there index system compleet the orders for the new build ( I have already 3 printers taking dust and 4 running ) what is the best option here.

Follow up to “How Screwed am I?”

this is an follow up to my original post https://www.reddit.com/r/SovolSV08/comments/1t4pl3r/how_screwed_am_i/

I replaced the toolhead but the printer still stuck on the system loading screen. I cannot reach the mainsail and when I try and ping the ip on terminal, the host cannot be found.

When I take off the bottom covers there are solid blue led lights on, no red. I tried unplugging the toolhead umbilical, still nothing.

Is the next step to try and reflash the emmc? Do I need to get a new main board?

Thank you again for all your help.

Hey Redditors,

Let me first off start by saying what an amazing resource this has been and how helpful posts here on reddit have been.

So I am new to the 3d printing world and although I read that the sv08 requires tinkering I thought I would be able to manage as I am fairly mechanically savy but with not a lot of 3d printing or electronics experience.

I was changing the nozzle on the sv08 today and was following along with the sovol youtube video. It turns out that in the video they dont actually show you how to change the nozzle, which is frustrating.

What I did was try and change the nozzle with the sv08 on and I created a short on the board of the toolhead when I was removing the two allen bolts. It occurred on the left side of the toolhead where there are the 5 soldered points. I saw a spark and a red light came on below the toolhead. Now the startup screen is stuck on "system loading."

I use gemini a lot to try and help me learn and reached out to customer service but I havent had any luck so far.

How screwed am I? Did I fry the MCU on the toolhead and need a new one? Is it an easy fix? Thanks for your help

dialing in my first printer

Hello again! finally got around to connecting the printer to wifi.

right now im trying to dial it in using this video method https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9EWY3CXWrv0&t=1s

any recommendations on the "perfect" settings for speed and quality? the purposes of what im doing is just making figures. ex: skylanders (for nostalgia)

again im veryyyyyyy new at this. i have no idea what im doing and trying to go off of outdated videos and forums info.

Frostbite build plate

I recently got a Cryogrip Frostbite build plate for my SV08, and it is working very well. The one problem I have had is that the bottom face of it adhere to the top of the heater plate. I got it off, but it actually pulled a chunk of the foam or whatever is covering it off. I am thinking I should gewt a thin sheet of PTFE to put betweeeen them to prevent this from happening again

New gantry just dropped. Anyone trying it?

I've been eyeballing the Nadir V2 gantry and just saw this Monolith inspired gantry [Printables][github] start popping up. Has anyone taken the plunge to print and try this new one? Are the benefits of the Monolith belt paths worth the experiment?

Error code 20, missed scheduling

Hello everyone, my SV08 has been struggling to perform long prints. I've seen error 20, 7, and I think 8. It'll just stop randomly mid-print with an error. My latest print lasted close to 11 hours.

The printer is mostly OEM, but with:

  • OrcaSlicer for slicing and sending files to the printer
  • running latest Sovol firmware on an OEM mainboard (this issue happened previously on earlier firmware versions as well)
  • larger SV08 screen from Sovol.
  • equipped with a Microswiss flowtech hotend with a 1mm nozzle
  • networked through Obico (in Obico, through the Klipper tunnel a message states Moonraker isn't up to date, but I dont think this could be a contributing issue. Correct me if I'm wrong)

So far I've updated firmware (as said previously). I've adjusted my speeds and other printer settings. I've done wiggle test to harnesses (grabbed and bent/shook to check for partial open circuits or shorts). I've cleared out old gcode files and have no timelapses.

The latest thing I've done is twist the two thick wires on the extruder/hotend plugs. I watched a video on YouTube how this could be a factor due to emi or noise.

I am very new when it comes to this level of networking, Klipper, code, firmware and more. I am pretty stuck at this point and need some help from those who are more versed in this side of 3d printing.

  1. did you get this error?
  2. how did you deal with or fix it?
  3. should I go with mainline Klipper?
  4. should I replace the eMMC? This seems like a daunting task since that's getting into writing firmware and more, right?
  5. should I replace the mainboard with something from BigtreeTech? But this feels silly since the mainboard that came with the printer is a 64bit and seems more than capable.

All suggestions appreciated!

Edit: formatting and info

I have been printing with sovols orca slicer presets with minimal changes and it has been good so far, but I would like to have a preset with lower speeds and accelerations to boost quality a bit.

I have tired a few speed and acceleration variations but if someone has a preset that works good I could save some time and filament (also bc I dont really know how to set the accelerations correctly).

I am currently printing mostly elegoo pla+ at 215°C with max 18mm^3/s (if that matters)
