Flexi Plate with Carbon Fiber - Bambu Lab A1, X1, P1, P2S, X2D - 258 x 258

bed_temperature_initial_layer_single] ;wait for bed temp G4 P600000 ; pause for 300,000 milliseconds Bed Leveling: For printers with touch or tap bed leveling systems, set the nozzle temperature to no more than 140°C during leveling to avoid damaging the surface. While some systems tap lightly and work fine up to 170°C, others tap with more force and may leave marks at temperatures as low as 150°C. Hot End Temperature: It’s advisable to keep the hot end temperature for the first layer at or below 270°C to prevent damage to the surface. If you notice any light distortions on the surface, they will likely dissipate if the bed is reheated to the same temperature and left for 15-30 minutes. Adhesives: This build surface is meant to be used with adhesion promoters like: Vision Miner Nano Polymer, Glue Stick, or Magigoo for most filaments. Certain filaments like PETG and TPU usually do not need any other adhesives. We have found that certain filaments (like PLA and PC CF) and brands stick without adhesive and you can experiment to find your best settings and functionality. If you’re using filaments prone to significant shrinkage, such as ABS and Nylon, it’s recommended to use an enclosure like the Wham Bam HotBox to maintain a controlled ambient temperature of around 40-50°C. +Downloads FDM Flexi Plate Holder Attention: Please be aware that this is our only build plate designed for one-sided use. Carbon fiber is electrically conductive, and its woven fabric acts as a strong magnetic shield. If you try to flip the plate and use it upside down, the carbon fiber layer will interfere with the magnetic connection between the metal Flexi Plate and the magnetic base, resulting in poor hold. +Q: Why aren't you selling the build surface by itself? A: We want to offer the highest quality and flatness possible by installing the proper industrial equipment. We recognize that during self installation one can impart a curvature between the two rigid panels and throw off the whole build surface tolerance. +Q: What surface finish should you expect? A: Our true Carbon Fiber leaves a very smooth surface with the slightest of pattern only when seen in the exact cross light. +Q: How does the Carbon Fiber Build Plate compare to our other build plates? A: We are very proud of our PEX and Powder Painted PEI as well as our new Carbon Fiber Build Surfaces and find that each has its place in your lab! Use our Powder Painted ULTEM PEI to have a great textured print surface. It is a very robust surface that is not easy to damage. Use our PEX for a wonderful smooth bottom finish and easy to print and release for most every filament. The PEX does require a bit more research and process to use well, and you must be careful when printing PETG, some ASA and other materials which may bond too well. The new Carbon Fiber Build Surface is our top of the line smooth build surface solution that is very robust and does not have issues bonding with certain filaments. +Q: Are there special filaments I would want to get this new Carbon Plate for and why? A: Yes! PETG, PEI, and PEEK all have similar molecular composition to PEI build surfaces and Wham Bam PEX and therefore tend to stick and bond and may cause damage. The polymer in the Carbon Fiber is a completely different family of plastic that does not bond with the above and other, so if you plan on printing PETG, PEI, PEEK, and even ASA you should get this build surface!
