Thanks for all the work you've put into these SV08 videos, Gergo. I'm struggling a bit with my new printer manifesting in problems with print quality. I've yet to walk through your "19 things" video though, so I'm not going to start asking questions until I've done that. I can say that one thing anyone can do to up their SV08 game is to buy the BTT 5" touch screen replacement and plug it in. I couldn't get my wifi.cfg to connect and the BTT made that problem go away. So inexpensive and works out of the box. Add Nadir's mount and you're good to go.

@gerGoPrint3D 24 күн бұрын

Thanks for the recommendation. I got used to the mini-screen and was able to connect to wifi, but I am too getting touch screen options. When I do, I will make videos of them!

@Immolate62 17 күн бұрын

Since last week I have put three kilograms of Eryone black PETG through my SV08. The SV08 config for PETG is 85C for the bed, which in retrospect seems high. I know it didn't play well with the Sovol textured PETG build plate which I've already had to flip. I've been using gluestick on the smooth side and that seems to work well enough at 85C. Going to have to play with the settings I think if I ever slow down long enough to tinker. Anyway, no issues with the nozzle so far.

@DiomedesDominguez 24 күн бұрын

changing the toolhead for a dragon burner or even an afterburner, I think, is better than continuing using the stock one form Sovol: We can have higher temps, flow rates, speeds and acc. but also the possibility to continuing using our V6 nozzles, specially hardened ones.

I have the same problems with the nozzle on PETG/PCTG. With all my printers I print PETG at 200mm/s at 275°C without any problems and with perfect results, only the SV08 has problems. At what speed do you print PETG?

@blessblend8300 24 күн бұрын

great video. These discoveries of Sovol's misconceptions, in configuration files and or macros, also apply to SV07 Plus?

@gerGoPrint3D 24 күн бұрын

The stock software on the SV07 Plus doesn't do gantry leveling or mesh before every print, so it is up to you how you heat the bed before you do these manually. I am not using the SV07 Plus with the stock settings however, as I installed Christian Vick's Klipper Printer Additions, which take care of all of these and more!!!

Do you make any changes to the speed at which you print PETG?

We don't need to worry about speed so much when you are using Orca slicer. Just set the Max Volumetric speed as calibrated here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/j9yRadNzzKvWZYE.html and the slicer will automatically control the speeds.

@KaliKavala 23 күн бұрын

Oh, loved the video. Thanks for sharing, I did not know few of the things. How can Sovol do so bad job with all the macros it is so hard for me to believe that. From the start of this printer life it has so many stuff messed up, but messing M104 and M140... Cmon we've all done it in the past I suppose but for a company to do that is ... pfff mindblowing to me To be honest I am kind of scared to run mine when i receive it. With all the issues in the group (not only nozzle) I am getting really confused about this machine

@gerGoPrint3D 23 күн бұрын

Yes, their software people are not the strongest, but this is where the community can easily make up for these. All files being open source (and avaialble on GitHub) we could even add pull requests. As for this specific mistake, it's basically harmless, as this branch of the code seldom gets executed (only if the bed is more than 5°C hotter than the target temp - and unlikely scenario) and even if it runs, it will just break with an error, as almost any nozzle target temp is higher than the max allowed for bed (it will surely not try to heat to that, Klipper has safeguards in this regards). Final thought: as a dislexic person myself, I have always found it ufortunate G-code designers made the bed / extruder commands so similar in appearance, just two digits switched. M109 vs M190 and M104 vs M140

It is a great that on the you changed the macros. I have set mine. To first heat the bed and after home qgl and the print start macro

@gerGoPrint3D 24 күн бұрын

Hey Nadir!! But the stock macros always set 65°C even if heated higher. It is good to have a default temp (so they aren't done cold) but if the bed is already heated, they should not change the target temp. Have you dared to print PETG? Or you are switching the whole toolhead anyway?

It has been almost two months since I received the printer, and today it appears my “fixed” nozzles and the latest print bed replacement are out for delivery.

@@Magin68 "understandably posted excessively" is a contradiction stemming from an imperfect mastery of English that I see a lot working with very smart people from various parts of the world on a daily basis. In this instance, Gergo is using excessively when he means "a lot." You hear it as "too much." A little charity goes a long way. Gergo is so self-evidently a sweetheart that assuming bad intent of any sort is unwarranted.

As I commented just yet you can get Bambu Hot ends for V6 nozzles and you'll find a adapter print on printables to mount it to the toolhead of the SV08, if that's a possible solution. I don't think Sovol will alternate their product.

I just received the set of new batch nozzles... On monday, i mailed their support about my order of the enclosure and a set of nozzles i placed 6 weeks ago, in which i wanted to know whats going on, if the nozzle issue causing the order beeing stuck. First person wrote the covers were out of stock, and there had been any nozzle issues at all. Some hours later iwas told in a second mail from another person both are shipped right before. Enclosure arrived on wednesday, nozzles came today on saturday due to a crooked address label, could happen to the best packers. Anyway, the new nozzles are bare soft copper, no coating at all, as shown on the updated product side! I wonder how long they gonna last

I just saw an add for the SV08 on Facebook with the heading “Pre-assembled Voron 2.4: Print Bigger, Pay Less”. This ad is incorrect and really disrespectful to the Voron project and community. I have watched a lot of your videos because you are doing in depth coverage of the SV08 and I am thinking of buying one. But this behavior really bothers me. It’s making me reconsider my purchase plans. I hope you can reach out to Sovol and help them understand that this is not acceptable. All they had to say is “Pre-assembled Voron Inspired Printer-Print Bigger, Pay Less”. Then they wouldn’t be deceptively camping on Voron’s trademark.

Yes, I don't understand why they try to ride the Voron train, when this printer is good on its own. I agree they should acknowledge the Voron background and give credit where credit is due, but for some reason they are trying to appeal to people looking to get a Voron printer, which are most probably not the best target.
