Sovol SV04 Frame Brace

prusaprinters

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_RightBracket_Top_LeftMounting_RightMounting_Left (with cable protection)2x aluminiumprofile 20x20L B-type nut 6, each 582mm longI 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-nuts2 M5x8 (if desired) Screws for bottom:12 M5x10 + 12 T-nutsAssembly: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 :-)
