This cast aluminum 3D printer bed makes for a superior print bed, far exceeding what comes standard on most consumer 3D printers in terms of flatness, rigidity and stability.
****Beds with built in magnets are assembled to order and have a minimum of one week processing time****
****Beds with built in magnets must ship with a GROUND transportation shipping service, if you do not pick a ground service your order will be adjusted and you will be invoiced if there is a price difference****
This bed plate offers the following features
-Thermistor slot in the top to allow the end user to glue in a thermistor to measure the actual bed temperature near the build surface. This slot will cause no problems with the print surface and it commonly done on some high end corexy printers and commercial grade 3D printers.
-An additional 15mm on the back edge of the bed to allow for attachment of cable clamps, cable drag chains. In this bed extension there are 3 sets of M3 holes 25mm apart for the clamps or drag chains to attach to.
-Tapped holes for attachment of thermal fuses and electrical ground leads.
-Build surface stop pins have been added via two tapped holes in the bed extension and screws that are included with the bed. These allow you to bump your magnetic build surface sheet up against them before lowering it on to the magnetic surface. This provides a more consistent placement of your magnetic build surface with ever use.
-New quality M4 mounting hardware is included with each bed, included with this is 4 M4 flat head screws, 4 flat washers and 4 nuts so you can rigidly attach the mounting screws so they do not spin when used with leveling knobs.
-Mounting holes are counter sunk so the bed screws sit just below flush with the top surface.
As delivered this is a bare cast aluminum bed that will require you to provide a heater (if you want a heated bed) and a print surface to print on. Most common heaters are either an adhesive silicone heater pad or the factory heated bed. The factory heated bed sandwiched onto this bed plate is the least ideal but has worked for some customers. For build surfaces the most common is to use an adhesive bed-side magnet and spring steel plate system, like the Wham-Bam system. Alternately you could apply an adhesive build surface, like Build tack or PEI, directly to this bed.
These beds are made from cast aluminum tooling plate with the top and bottom surfaces left untouched (mill finish). This means occasionally there can be some small marks on the surface from material handling. Nothing significant, but still visually noticeable. This is just normal condition for the material. We do everything we can to deliver a visually appealing product to our customers but we can't prevent what happened before we buy our raw material.
