PrimaCreator Textured PEI Plate for Bambu Lab A1 Mini
Introducing the PrimaCreator Dual-Sided Textured PEI Plate The Ultimate Upgrade for Your Bambu Lab A1 Mini 3D Printer. Elevate your 3D printing experience with the PrimaCreator Dual-Sided Textured PEI Plate, engineered to deliver unparalleled first-layer adhesion, remarkable durability, and effortless print removal. This innovative plate is your key to mastering complex prints with a wide range of filaments, offering a seamless and superior printing journey from start to finish.
Excellent first-layer adhesion, improved durability
After optimizing the manufacturing process of the PrimaCreator Texture PEI Plate, the durability of the plate is enhanced. Additionally, the adhesion between the prints and the plate is significantly improved, eliminating the need for adhesives. *In some situations, glue is required for very specific filaments
Self-release when cooled down
PEI is an excellent material for 3D printing applications due to its ability to withstand the repeated heating and cooling cycles of a printer heatbed. Prints come off easily when the temperature of the heatbed reaches room temperature, and we always recommend waiting until it reaches 35℃ or lower. If the print is still adheres to the plate, simply bend the steel plate and the model will fall right into your hands.
Textured surface finish
PrimaCreator Texture PEI Plate offers a one-of-a-kind first-layer surface. Through the application of a powder-coating process, this PEI Build Plate creates a rugged texture that adds a texture to your prints.
Compatibility with various filaments, especially for PLA
PEI enables printing with common materials such as PLA, TPU, PETG and PVA.*Please apply liquid glue or a glue stick to prevent the sheet from tearing if print filament other than PLA.
Installation Steps
- Step 1: Align the plate with the fixed points of the platform with the name of the plate facing you.
- Step 2: Lower the plate and secure to the magnetic platform.
Recommended Settings
Please note that other slicer settings might need to be adjusted based on the printed model and the filament requirements.
Considerations
- Increasing the temperature of the heatbed enhances the adhesion of the filament to the build plate. Users can adjust the temperature of the heatbed or apply glue if additional adhesion is needed.
- During the printing process, dust and grease on the surface of the build plate can negatively impact material adhesion. It is recommended to regularly clean the surface with detergent and water to eliminate any dust or grease residue first. If it doesn’t work, clean the surface with alcohol.
- Wait until the build plate fully cools down to prevent damage to the plate and prints when removing the printed parts.
- Do not clean the plate with acetone, as it will damage the PEI surface.
- Carefully sanding the surface with fine-grit (600 was recommended) sandpaper can help restore adhesion.
