To give my Sovol SV04 more stability - especially in large Z-height - I constructed a frame reinforcement.

To give my Sovol SV04 more stability - especially in large Z-heights and because of the up to 2 kg filament on top of the frame - I constructed a reinforcement. As inspiration I used the project of 3Dmaich.

The reinforcement consists of:

  • Bracket_Top_Right
  • Bracket_Top_Left
  • Mounting_Right
  • Mounting_Left (with cable protection)
    • 2x aluminiumprofile 20x20L B-type nut 6, each 582mm long
    • I had the aluminum profiles cut to size when I bought them. 

Instead of Mounting_Left you can use a second Mounting_Right.

Screws for top:

  • 4 M5x35 
  • 8 M5x10 + 8 T-nuts
  • 2 M5x8 (if desired) 

Screws for bottom:

  • 12 M5x10 + 12 T-nuts

Assembly:

I first prepared the two upper brackets (Top_Right / Top_Left) with the M5x10 screws and T-nuts and then mounted them with M5x35 screws (and M5x8) onto the Sovol SV04. 

Then I attached Mounting_Left and Mounting_Right to the 582mm aluminum profiles. 

After that, I moved those aluminum profiles into the upper brackets and then slided them into the frame profile at the bottom. (Removing the two rear plastic caps will help.) 

Finally I tightened all screws.

The assembly is a bit fiddly. But fortunately you have to do only once :-)
