SV08 Core-XY 3D Printer Voron 2.4 Open Source, 700mm/s High Speed 3D Printers with 300℃ Clog-Free Hotend & Camera, Auto Leveling with 4 Independent Z Motors, Large Print Size 13.8x13.8x13.6in

I've just recently gotten back into 3D FDM printing and I was interested in purchasing a new printer that had some of the latest bells and whistles. When I began researching the purchase I became a bit overwhelmed due to countless brands, types, sizes and price ranges of printers that are on the market Needless to say I had a difficult time deciding on which to buy. I ended up stumbling across a video on youtube reviewing the Sovol SV06 which led me to finally make a decision. I thought the price was great and it has all of the features that I was looking for in a printer. I made the purchase on a Thursday night and it was on my doorstep by Saturday morning. Unboxing impressions - This printer comes packaged very well.... It's packaged so well that I didn't see the extruder assembly in the foam packaging and almost threw it out with the foam. All parts and pieces are tightly packed and there was no sign of possible damage to any of the components. Good job Sovol. Assembly impressions - Getting this printer put together and ready for printing was easy and quick (15-20 minutes). The instructions are simple to understand and the packages of screws used for assembly are all labeled based on which step you're on in the process. It couldn't have been easier. Getting it ready to print - The instructions show you how to level this bed properly using the mesh leveling. First you level the Z, which is automatic. Then you auto home and set your z offset using a piece of A4 paper. You then tell the printer to run mesh leveling which takes a couple of minutes but then you're ready to go. No more fiddling with knobs to level the bed (Amen!) Print quality impressions - Like most folks my initial print was the file that's included on the SD card - in this case it was the Boat Benchy. I'm not used to having perfect first prints on a brand new 3d printer but this one comes really close. There were a few whisps of filament on the model but nothing I'd go so far as to call "stringing" and one quick blast of heat from the heat gun made all whisps disappear. (Photo attached shows the whisps.) Ever since then I've had nothing but fantastic prints. Some models have whisps, others do not so I think it has more to do with me not having settings dialed in for the different filaments that I've been using. Regardless, the prints turn out looking great! After several successful prints on this machine I wanted to really test how level the bad was by loading it up and watching the first layer and I've attached an image to this review that shows just how well that layer went down. It was perfect and consistent across the entire bed. Adhesion was good throughout the entirety of the print and all parts turned out excellent (the parts in the photo were used to make the robot hand which is also pictured) The few failures that I've had on this machine have been while attempting to print with old Sainsmart TPU that's been sitting around my house for a year or two. I've attempted to dry it but I haven't yet to dialed in the settings but I expect that I'll have better results once I do. Filaments that I've used to print with so far - TPU, PLA, PLA+ and PETG. This is my first time attempting to print with PETG as I've always heard that it was a difficult filament to get quality prints with and surprisingly I've had NO issues and it turns out I really like printing with PETG now (go figure). Inland PLA+ has also been a really good filament to print with on this thing. The only minor thing that this printer is missing is a filament runout sensor. I've never had to rely on one but it's a nice feature to have, just in case. Sovol has addressed this with the release of the SV06 Plus that just recently came out and you bet I also ordered that printer for the larger build volume. . So, all in all I would absolutely recommend this printer to anyone. Ease of use and the high quality prints right out of the box makes this a great buy for beginners as well as those that have experience. For the price you can't go wrong with this machine. Mine has been going nonstop since I put it together!

I've been 3D printing since early 2021 and looked at many different 3D Printers and narrowed down it down to the Sovol SV01 (Classsic) to be my 1st printer because I liked the features offered for a good price and their customer service. During my 2 years of printing, I learned a lot and had been enjoying printing since. But......I quickly realized that a 2nd printer would greatly help when printing large multi-object prints and multiple colors. I looked at many printers and kept going back to Sovol’s website and was eyeing the SV06. I saw Sovol’s announcement of the SV06 late 2022 and really liked the features it offered but kept contemplating on making a purchase for a 2nd printer. 7 months later, I decided I was ready for a 2nd printer and purchased the Sovol SV06. I’m glad I purchased it. Upon opening the packaging, I noticed it was packaged extremely well! Each component was packed into its own compartment and all the screws/bolts bags are labeled making it easier to assemble. If your new to the 3D printing world, then this is an excellent printer with very little effort in assembling. The entire process of assembling took me just under 30mins from unboxing to turning it on (I took my time reading through the guide and tightening all the screws/bolts). There is also a guide that was included with the packaging with pictures and there are videos online on how to assemble it. The guide is very detailed. Once I got it all assembled and also got the auto z aligned & bed leveled, I started by printing the benchy included on the sd card but got half way through it and realized the nozzle/hot end was angled severely which may not be a problem for small prints but a huge problem for large prints. I took the extruder off the mount (so much easier to remove than my older SV01) and looked over it. I contact Sovol’s support and they were extremely helpful. They provided a replacement and links to videos and information & once I received the replacement parts it was easy to fix the issue. Pros: • The biggest pro that I like about this printer is the Bed Leveling feature. Unlike my SV01, I would have to level it every few prints even after adding the silicon pieces instead of springs. With the SV06, the bed does not have any springs or silicon pieces. It slides on rods and includes an inductive sensor. I included the G29 command in my startup gcode and it checks the bed before printing. • I like the size of this printer. It is smaller than my Sovol SV01. Its not to small but not to big. Its a good size that will allow for printing almost anything. If your into printing cosplay helmets they you may have to cut up parts and print multiple parts. For me I’ll probably print helmets on my SV01 and print all the small misc. pieces on my SV06 so I can complete them much quicker. • The extruder is extremely easy to work with. With my previous SV01 I would have to move the gantry to the very top to give me room to work on the extruder and sometimes maneuvering to get a good angle to work on it. With the SV06 there’s 3 screws to undo and remove the wiring clip and its free to work on. Wish this was feature was around on my SV01. • Prints PLA, PLA+, PETG, TPU, ABS, ASA, Nylon & etc... I mostly print with PLA, PLA+, PETG & TPU. I haven’t tried TPU on the SV06 but PLA, PLA+ and PETG print extremely well. • Filament change from the printer is very easy compared to my SV01. Its easier to navigate through the menu to find the filament change. Cons: • Loading filament was a little tricky the 1st few times but after several attempts its become much easier than my SV01. There are videos on how to properly load filament that should help. • The size of the bed. Even though for me its not a con since I have another printer that I can use but if this is your 1st printer that may be an issue. Its build plate says 235mm x 235mm but the actual build plate size is 220mm x 220mm. Wish Sovol would had adjusted the wording on that since it can cause some confusion. If this is to small you could always go with a SV06 Plus that has a bigger bed. • I’ve read online that others experience the bearings being very loud. I experienced the same issue but used some specialized grease and fixed the loud sound. This can be an issue if you don’t have specialized grease to fix it. It should be something Sovol should have fixed before sending them but not a big deal. Just something to think about when purchasing. • Still uses a micro sd card and a micro usb. Wish this used a USB-A or USB-C connection but not an issue for me since I had an extra Raspberry PI running Octoprint connected to my SV06 using a micro usb cable. Also something to think about when purchasing. • No Run out Sensor offered. I never used my run out sensor on my SV01 since I problems getting filament to load into it so for me its not an issue. I just keep an eye out on how much filament I have loaded and guestimate on when I need to change it. • No color display like the SV06 Plus but for me its not to much of a problem since I’m use to it on my SV01. I’ve only printed a few test pieces but so far the SV06 has been a great printer for the price. If this is your 1st printer then I think it will be a 1st good printer or 2nd/3rd/etc… printer. Its very easy to use and is loaded with a lot of features that I can’t wait to start using it more! I like it so much that I may have to get another SV06 so I can print more!

I decided it was time to upgrade my positively geriatric and poorly-Frankensteined CR-10 with something a bit more modern and powerful, and while it's still early days, the SV08 has so far blown me away and is absoultely worthy of five stars in my opinion. It's not perfect, but perfection is difficult to gauge, and a bit subjective, for a 3D printer of this calibre and size at this price point. I'll try and explain. I'd say that the one-hour assembly time that Sovol states is optimistic at best unless you've already built an SV08 or another "mostly-assembled" CoreXY printer before. It took me a couple of hours, but I'd imagine prior knowledge of 3D printer assembly, a decent electric screwdriver and a good understanding of the manual will help to have this thing built in an hour or less. Overall it wasn't difficult at all, though there were some areas of the manual I didn't fully understand (unsure if it's the fault of the manual or the reader, probably the latter...), so I also consulted a video someone made going through the assembly process. Either way, once it was built, I was impressed by just how sturdy it felt. After the initial set up, an update of the firmware, and some calibration, the SV08 has already been giving me some excellent prints. For one thing, it's scary how fast this thing can move. Very very impressive stuff for someone coming from an old bed-slinger, to see just how quickly this thing can lay down material. I've not built anything massive yet, mainly just small items such as a case for a music player (pictured) but a 350x350x345mm build volume opens up the opportunity for some big prints. It's not quite as tall a build surface as my CR-10 was, but I'm happy to sacrifice 5cm on the Z axis for an extra 5cm on both the X and Y axes. I'd imagine this'd be a great printer for decor, storage, cosplay, all sorts of applications that call for some larger printers. I still have some dialling in to do for this printer. Prints aren't perfect yet - namely I'm encountering a lot of stringing between gaps and other such artefacts that can surely be eliminated with some tweaks to temperature, cooling and retraction settings, but in the meantime it's nothing that a bit of post-processing can't fix. A quiet 3D printer this is not! I will say that I don't hear anywhere near the amount of stepper motor whirring and whining that I heard with my CR-10, but that's possibly because the fans drown it all out. The mainboard cooling fan is small and loud and runs constantly, and the part cooling fans scream like a hairdryer while it's printing, but I'd imagine a solid door between you and the printer will surely help. I also hear that the enclosure kit you can buy for this helps some; I have it but haven't fitted it yet. Just keep in mind that out of the box this is not a quiet printer by any means. The beauty of a printer like this is that it's on the more barebones end of the 3D printer spectrum - it's derived from the Voron 2.4 and is mostly open source. And sure, the 2.4 has a bigger following, and Sovol surely had to make a few compromises to create the SV08 as a cheap and mass-producible version of it, but there's still a thriving community supporting this printer, providing fixes, upgrades and plenty of advice. For example I know that I'll be able to quieten down the printer significantly by replacing the fans, and I'll know exactly what to do because people have done it before and posted guides and 3D printable parts. Overall, I'd say that if you're looking for a big, fast, advanced printer on a budget, you can't go wrong with the SV08. You get a hell of a lot of printer for the price, and you'd be hard-pressed to find anything better without spending two or three times as much. It's really impressive to see just how far 3D printing has come since I got my first printer in 2018, and while the SV08 isn't cutting-edge or objectively 'perfect' by any means, the fact that such a capable printer can be so inexpensive now, is truly mind-blowing to me.

Es muy lenta en la fabricación de algunas piezas

This is my first time buying a 3d printer, not exactly plug and play and need to tinker a bit. Quite happy with the purchase, although there was a hiccup during installation and there is defect here and there, the after sales service help me solve the issue and give me back partial refund while keeping the item

Der Sovol SV08 Basiert auf Dem Voron Community Projekt und Ubterstüzt die Weiterentwicklung dieses Projekts mit 2$ Pro Verkauftem SV08 was eine Sehr löbliche sache ist, da das nicht jeder Hersteller So Habdhabt wenn er sich bei Community Projekten „bedient“. Der Sovol SV08 ist mit einem CoreXY-Design, Klipper-Firmware und einem großen Bauraum ausgestattet – Merkmale, die bei 3D-Druck-Enthusiasten gut ankommen. Dieser Testbericht beleuchtet die wichtigsten Spezifikationen, Montage und Features des Geräts und gibt detaillierte Einblicke in Druckergebnisse sowie die Vor- und Nachteile. Unboxing und Montage Der Sovol SV08 kam sicher verpackt an und erfordert eine etwas längere Montagezeit im Vergleich zu typischen Bett-Schiebe-Druckern. Der Aufbau nimmt ungefähr eine Stunde in Anspruch. Besonders hervorzuheben ist die korrekte Verlegung der Kabel, da diese in engen Bereichen leicht beschädigt werden könnten. Nach der mechanischen Montage der Z-Aufzüge und des Portalrahmens erfolgt das Verbinden der Kabel. Dank klarer Anleitungen gestaltet sich der Aufbau jedoch unkompliziert. Wichtige Features CoreXY-System und Linearschienen Das CoreXY-Design des Sovol SV08 verleiht dem Drucker eine höhere Stabilität und Präzision bei schnellen Druckgeschwindigkeiten. Die Linearschienen an allen Achsen tragen zu einer flüssigen und exakten Bewegung bei, was sich positiv auf die Druckqualität auswirkt. 4 Unabhängige Z-Motoren Der Sovol SV08 verfügt über vier Z-Motoren, die an allen vier Ecken des Druckbettes angebracht sind. Diese Konfiguration gewährleistet eine perfekte Ausrichtung der Z-Achse, was insbesondere bei größeren Druckprojekten von Vorteil ist. Klipper-Firmware Die Verwendung der Klipper-Firmware ermöglicht eine verbesserte Druckgeschwindigkeit und bietet umfassende Steuerungsmöglichkeiten über das Webinterface. Mit Klipper lässt sich der Drucker aus der Ferne steuern, was vor allem für fortgeschrittene Anwender ein großes Plus darstellt. Bed Leveling und Kalibrierung Nach der Montage folgt der Prozess der automatischen Bettnivellierung. Hierbei wird das Bett auf 60°C aufgeheizt und anschließend das Z-Offset kalibriert. Die automatische Quad-Gantry-Level-Funktion sowie die Bett-Mesh-Kalibrierung tragen zu einem präzisen Druck bei. Dieser Prozess dauert nur wenige Minuten und erfordert keine manuelle Anpassung. Slicer Software: ORCA Der mitgelieferte ORCA-Slicer auf dem USB-Stick macht den Einstieg in den Druck einfach. Die vorkonfigurierten Druckerprofile sind gut abgestimmt, sodass ohne große Anpassungen direkt losgedruckt werden kann. Der Slicer bietet zudem automatische Baumstützen, die komplexe Modelle unterstützen. Testdrucke Der Sovol SV08 zeigt seine Stärke insbesondere bei detaillierten Druckmodellen. Verschiedene Testdrucke, wie ein Benchy-Modell in 12 Minuten, flexible Drucke sowie funktionale Objekte, wurden mit hoher Präzision und Stabilität gefertigt. Selbst bei anspruchsvollen Modellen wie dem Darth Vader oder dem Dragon Pot Planter zeigte der Drucker keine Schwächen. Insbesondere die Verwendung von Dual-Filamenten war ein Highlight und führte zu beeindruckenden Farbverläufen. Vergleich mit anderen 3D-Druckern Im Vergleich zu ähnlichen Modellen wie dem Creality K1, Two Trees SK1 oder Bambu Lab P1P bietet der Sovol SV08 eine größere Baugröße und einen umfangreichen Funktionsumfang. Für einen vergleichbaren Preis erhalten Anwender mehr Flexibilität und eine größere Druckfläche, was ihn besonders für größere Projekte attraktiv macht. Fazit und Zusammenfassung der Vor- und Nachteile Der Sovol SV08 überzeugt als vielseitiger und leistungsstarker CoreXY-Drucker, der sich sowohl für Einsteiger als auch fortgeschrittene Anwender eignet. Die solide Bauqualität, in Kombination mit der Klipper-Firmware und der umfassenden Funktionsausstattung, macht den Drucker zu einer hervorragenden Wahl in seiner Preisklasse. Vorteile: Hochwertige Linearschienen an allen Achsen Klipper-Firmware mit Fernzugriff Präzise und schnelle Drucke Großer Bauraum Automatische Kalibrierung Nachteile: Etwas kleine Benutzeroberfläche Lauter Lüfter Für Enthusiasten und Modder bietet der Sovol SV08 eine exzellente Grundlage für weitere Upgrades und Anpassungen, sei es durch das Hinzufügen von Gehäusen oder Touchscreens. Trotz kleinerer Schwächen stellt der Drucker eine starke Konkurrenz für teurere Modelle dar und bietet eine hervorragende Balance zwischen Preis und Leistung.

I liked the price, the speed of delivery the resources available such as the Facebook page and messaging to support with a few questions. The acksge came in excellent shape really well protected. The printer came together very easily I had a flight issue with levelling the bed but this is my first 3d printer and as I mentioned the resources available from sovols website, you tube page and Facebook allows me to resolve the issue easily. I printed the test cube then dove straight vinyl printing tpu. I bought this printer primarily to print parts for my fpv quadcopters using tpu and have had a great experience and excellent quality prints with the printer straight out of the box. I'm already looking to upgrade a few things on the printer but that's my preference to add a few more Bel's and whistles such as bl touch and touch screen but is it needed. No it's a fantastic printer with an already great spec as it comes.
