Good day! I am running a Klipperized Sovol SV06+ and have been getting some really great prints. I am however having an issue where lately I am having to adjust the Z offset with each new print. I did a first layer calibration and got a perfect result but after a couple prints I saw I needed to lower it to get a good first layer. Again I printed a few and then again I needed to lower it. This has happened a few times.

Yesterday I was printing a pretty large print and midway through the extruder shifted (the print remained secure to the bed) and continued printing. After I canceled the print I had to lower the Z offset much further than I thought was possible. I am concerned that the bed keeps “lowering”.

I have a very good bed mesh loaded (used the silicone bed leveling mid I have seen discussed). I am just unsure why this is needing to be adjusted and why the last print went wonky (related?)

Thanks much!

    What type of material are you printing? Could be the material is eating away at the brass nozzle causing you to need to adjust the z offset.

        Shouldnt be the filament then. I would make sure the probe is fully secured like the other comment suggested. Good luck, that sounds frustrating! I need to adjust mine, but usually after printing for a couple weeks.

          It is secure. Not a wiggle or jiggle to it.
