Sovol SV01 Y motor mount by bartolomeus

Last crawled date: 3 years, 4 months ago

This is my Y mount for the Sovol SV01 (and possibly other models).
The mount eliminates the need for the bearing on the stock mount. The motor is raised so the belt path is still parallel.
I also moved the motor closer to the center of the y extrusion. This way, with the pully flipped, the center of force from the belt is closer to the motor housing resulting in lower stress on the motor bearings.
With this mount the motor is closer to the frame so you have to shorten the y belt!. I used two tie wraps as a belt lock and left the remaining belt attachted just in case.
Extra parts needed:
M3 x 12 mm bolts (4x)
M5 x 30 mm bolts (2x)
M5 spring loaded (or regular) t-nuts for 2020 v-slot (2x)
Reuse both the M5 bolts from the stock mount.
