There’s also a downside to this, which is the remaining filament inside the hotend. ![]() I love this, as it’s super helpful in eliminating the need of forming a tip when retracting and lowers the risk of clogging the hotend when changing filaments. Below, you can see the extra spares you get in the package. A small blade is positioned between the hotend and the extruder which is pressed during printing that cuts the hot before retracting. If you look carefully, you can also see a plastic lever on the left, which at first I thought was used for loading filament, but it’s actually used for cutting the filament when doing a filament change. The High Temp side has the same coating, so nothing can stop you from printing on both sides if you don’t actually need the sticker. I printed ABS with good adhesion on the engineering side, and the finish is similar to the printing on a piece of glass. You apply a bit of glue stick on that side, then start printing. It might be some kind of special paint, but what I can say about it is that it works great. The Engineering Plate side of the flex plate is simply a painted side of the sheet. So it’s good to know that other printing surfaces work, as long as they are not translucent and have a smooth finish. I also tried sticking a BuildTak sheet instead of the stock sticker, and I had great results. Fortunately, you get an extra two stickers in the package to replace them after they are worn out. I was able to print over the bubbles, but I was expecting this to last longer. Bambu Lab mentioned that at some point in the future, they will have a PEI sheet available to purchase.Īfter about 150 hours of PLA and PETG printing, I got a few bubbles underneath the black printing surface. I would have liked to see a PEI printing surface instead of the current plate, but PEI is partially transparent so it can interfere with the LIDAR sensor during leveling. Everything was carefully considered to ensure no space is wasted. It’s an impressive build volume for such a low overall size of the machine and if you take a closer look, you will be impressed to see just how much tech was tightly integrated with the machine. ![]() ![]() When considering the print volume of 256mm cubed of this printer, we also need to think about the whole size of the machine which is 389*389*457mm.
