I recently bought a returned Sovol sv04, I managed to start working quite well with 1 and 2 heads but one thing annoyed me that in all the prints I got the same deformation on the print at the same height.
I discovered what caused the continuous deformation on my prints, after sliding my finger along the inner sides of the gantry , there were some deformations on the aluminum profile on the inner side.
The deformations are not visible to the eye but I can feel them with the touch
Have you experienced the same problem ?
Did you found a solution or a way to mitigate the issue?
Maybe tightening/loosening the eccentric wheels replacing the eccentric wheels for others with a different shape.
Maybe drilling and adding another eccentric wheel on the inside side of the frame ?
(I can’t afford at the moment to replace it for the linear rails)
Hello genaro & welcome to the forum!
The problem you described is quite unpleasant – you could try to minimize the unevenness with fine sandpaper (e.g., 400 grit) on a right-angled sanding block in the V-slots that are in contact with the rollers.
Depending on your machining skills, you could try shortening the profiles. Replacement could also be an option – V-slot aluminum profiles 2040 are not particularly expensive.
Good luck!

Thanks for your answers, I am thinking in to use a t slot nut to push the aluminium outwards to reduce the efect on the prints. I wil try this afternoon.
I will try to get parts of 2th hand, one solution is to add linear rails but it’s to early for my to do that conversion.
