Print Bed Adhesion Print bed adhesion is the ability of the first layer to stick to the print bed, preventing warping, lifting, or failed prints. Techniques to improve adhesion include using adhesives (glue stick, hairspray), heated beds, and specialized surfaces like PEI sheets. Proper bed leveling and nozzle height calibration are crucial for consistent adhesion. Advanced printers use auto bed leveling for accurate first layers. Materials like PLA require minimal adhesion aids, while ABS and Nylon need heated beds and adhesives to prevent warping. |
