This CNC milled heated bed plate is designed to replace the stock heated bed.

The heated bed has been re-designed from the original FT-5 stock bed.

 

Features include:

  • To provide the needed rigidity and flatness the heated bed plate is milled from cast aluminum tool plate.
  • Re-designed to accommodate a ground that was not in the original heated bed plate design.
  • Added 8 additional M3 threaded holes to aid in holding any print surface you choose to attach to this plate.  
  • ***NEW****   Recessed mounting holes allow for a larger print surface (glass, flex sheet, etc) to be used without interfering with the mounting hardware.

This bed now also features a smooth back side.  This not only reduces the chances of the bed warping with repeated heat cycles, but also allows for more versatility in the size and brand of silicone heater pad you may choose to use with this bed.

We highly recommend using a print surface, attached atop this heated bed, such as glass (not included), to avoid and scratches or dings that may permanently impact print quality.

Please note that due to the widely varied methods of attaching a heated bed to the build plate, we do not provide springs or attachment hardware with this kit.

Due to the high temps that this bed will see, we are not able to anodize this piece, therefore we only offer this piece in the shiny (non-anodized) finish, which may show minor tooling marks.

LEVEL bed!

If you are wanting to print on a surface that can be "perfectly" level, then this is the part you are looking for.

I purchased the gorgeously milled aluminum bed and a Keenovo silicone heater, which I attached in the perfectly milled out area on the bottom of this bed. You can heat this bed to the temp you need with no worries of it becoming warped and ruining your print. When this is in stock, it should be the ONE thing you purchase first...UNLESS the full kit is in stock, THEN get it!
Thank you for the wonderful parts you make!
