Sovol SV08 Multiple Motion System Upgrade.

[dwuk]

As per my previous posts on this thread I am embarking on a fairly complicated re-engineering of an SOVOL SV08 (Voron 2.4 clone) to be Duet 6HC controlled.

The build will be done in a number of phases:
Phase 1 - Dual Gantry, Multi Motion System - needing a Duet 6HC, Mini5, 2x 1LC
Phase 2 - Dual Idex - needing another Mini5, and further 2 x 1LC
Phase 3 - Tool/Nozzle Changer - A few more 1LCs
Phase 4 - AMS - ideally finding a way to connect Bambu Lab AMSs - if not some sort of MMU solution - which will need more Mini5s
Phase 5 - Occasionally moving bed

Printer received, Phase 1 2nd Gantry initial design done, parts for 2nd gantry ordered.

Basic additional belts design here - red and yellow belts are the new ones for the 2nd gantry - which are basically just a duplicated of the Voron 2.4 CoreXY setup - but inside at the back.

Now working on how to add mini Z hoppers for parallel printing /mesh correcting the two print heads - Am thinking I will start with a Stealth Changer - as it has the bushes to allow clean up and down movement, plus it is a good foundation for phase 3.

The smallest Stepper I can think is a Nema 8. - they are only about 45g - hope they will be powerful enough if I use a lead screw - might have to add some gearing if not.

So am thinking I might be able to add it into the stealth changer something like this.
