It doesn’t do it every time but it is really loud. It does it only at the start of a new print. Is this normal?
Volume warning:
SV06 noise
I had that a few times, but after completing the calibration of x,y and z it stopped doing it.
You need to change your sensorless homing setting. From this thread:
“Try in Advanced Settings >TMC Drivers> Sensorles Homing value to 68 or 69 for both x and y. Or until it stops grinding.”
I know your issue isn’t bed leveling like that linked thread, but your sensorless homing on the X axis needs tuning. It shouldn’t grind like that. It should basically just bump the side and then it’s done - no grinding at all. It’s just a firmware setting though you can adjust via the screen, so should be an easy tweak.

This looks like it working. My X was 65 and Y was 68. So can i just increasing it until it is softer? Does X and Y have to be the same number? I don’t think I had any issues with the Y.
It is a bit of a thud and minor grind when coming from the center:
Its a thud when it is right next to the side
Edit:
I have my X and Y set to 80 now. Much better. Thank you!

Awesome - glad you got it fixed up. I haven’t had to tune it on mine, but it look like you got it setup great now!
To answer your question though, no, X & Y can be different so they don’t have to match. Sounds like both set to the same value gives you a great result, but they are independent values.
It is possible that the loud noise you are hearing is the result of the printer’s stepper motors initializing at the start of a new print. This is a normal sound that can be heard when the printer is first powered on or when a new print is started.
Please advise how to access the “Advanced Settings”. I have been unable to find this file or menu to edit. Thank you.
Bumping topic up. When i look at the printer UI there is no advanced settings. Perhaps the ACE version has a less featured UI? I have been unsuccessful in find where to make adjustmest noted eailer in this thread. Thank you.
Hello,
Either you’re waiting for an ACE owner to write to you, or you’re emailing info@sovol3d.com for the information
My gaol was that owner @AdamByram who commented already about changed settings would reply indicating where the changes occured, printer menus, web dashboard menu, specific file… havent found the settings referenced in those areas I listed.

Good news, my issue is solved. Found a foam block I initially couldn’t see/reach that was preventing full y-travel. Removed that, homing is consistent, no issues. I have printed a number of items of my own design on the Sovol 6 ACE, working well. I bought this printer to use for STEM education show and tell. Took to a FIRST FRC Robotics group meeting to print several student designs - worked well. Outside of the foam shipping block I haven’t had any issues with the Orca Slicer profile that shipped with the printer out of the box.
