I am not sure what is wrong and where to start troubleshooting this.
My prints will fail, but it’s not random. I tried a Temp tower calibration, and they all failed at the same point. I tried a Flow rate calibration (YOLO) print, and all objects failed in the same place. See picture below. The actual body of the test pieces printed fine. It seems that when there are a lot of little details, it fails. I am wondering if it is an issue with my retraction. Retracting too much or not feeding enough after retraction? I have no idea how to test this theory.
Hello Rursell,
adding more details might help to provide you help.

Your printer worked with the current settings until recently?
Looking at your picture I’d start by adjusting the belt tensions.
Followed by going over every screw and ensuring all are tight. Don’t forget the grub (set) screws on the belt sprockets. Adjust the rollers to make sure all 3 axis are tight.
Then, if issues persist, lower the acceleration on the X and Y axis.
Yes absolutely, would Providing the g code help?
Let me know what details You are looking for. I am new to 3D printing so not really sure where to start.
Thanks very much for this I will try this tonight.
Hi again,
let’s try to locate your current position…
- Did you read the SV04 operation manual & ran adjustment according to it?
- Which slicer software are you using & does it support the SV04?
- Describe the temp tower “failing point” & what happened with your SV04 at that failing point. What were the recommended settings of the filament used for printing it (nozzle & bed temperatures)?
- Posting the .gcode files of your temp tower & flow rate calibration test should be helpful (usually, slicer settings are included as comment).
