Thank you all for your help! After yesterday’s Input I managed to Print my Box! The Problem was (mostly) the Bed temperature! The lower Bed temperature (60°C) and the now successful Firmware-Update (special thanks to DABDA) done the trick!
Thank you all for your help and your advice!
Hello I’m very new to 3D printing, I’m using a Sovol 06 with 1.75mm PLA. I’m trying to print a Box (for MTG-Cards). But everytime the bottom of the Box starts to “deatche” itself from the Bed. It starts with one corner and then progresses to the whole print.
The Nozzle temperature is 200°C and the Bed temperature is 80°C. Can someone help?
Are you saying the surface in the picture is the one that touches the bed? If that’s the case it should be nearly perfectly flat and smooth(ish depending on bed texture). If that’s the orientation it prints in there’s still an issue of distance and possibly belt tension or something else because of those waves and deep grooves. There’s a bunch of different methods to level a bed but ultimately you want the nozzle to slightly squish the filament it is putting down, in the picture it looks like it might not be.
As for the bed being clean, if you haven’t yet I’d definitely spray some isopropyl alcohol and wipe it off, taking care not to touch the bed with your hands at all – oil from your skin will easily cause adhesion issues.
Larger prints in general, and especially if there’s temperature variance while printing (drafts), can start to pull off the bed as the material contracts. You may need to add a brim in your slicer to help keep it welded down. When it’s necessary to use one will be a learning experience as you get used to your particular printer and environment.
Yes this is the Site in contact with the Bed. In my actual Try I’ve “loosend” the PLA a bit from the Coil so it can be passed down easier and decreased the printing speed. If that’s fails I’m gonna try to clean it with alcohol.
Thank you for the advice! :D
Seems like for some people it was ultimately the sd card being faulty that was causing the failure, especially if it was the sd card included with the printer.
When you’re ready to try printing again I agree with the suggestions to:
lower the bed temp to ~60c
avoid using glue sticks or similar since it shouldn’t be necessary with PLA, and will just add another variable
keep working through first layer print tests
I’m surprised you’re having adhesion problems with a PEI build plate. When I swapped to PEI it was like magic; filament effortlessly sticks and finished prints pop off from a gentle flex. There isn’t like a plastic shipping cover on it or something is there?
Anyway, good luck with the rest of your troubleshooting – I’m sure you’ll eventually get it dialed in :)

Is the bed clean and does the first layer look good?
I would say the Bed is clean. The Picture is the Site in contact with the Bed

WoW. I tried to Update the Firmware and now it’s stuck like this.
I have no personal experience with a failed firmware update but a quick search returned https://forum.sovol3d.com/t/sv06-bad-flash-probably-needs-bootloader/1452 and “solved” = https://forum.sovol3d.com/t/sv06-mainboard-brick-after-updating-sovol-firmware/862/52

Good luck!
Huh. Yeah I used the SD Card that Came with the Printer.
Thank you for your help! I’ve now set up a VM with Ubuntu and used a different FlashCard to safe it to. And now he is working again!
Awesome, glad to hear it!
