Overview
Bambu Smooth PEI Plate
High Z-axis Precision Printing
The use of a Smooth PEI Plate contributes to improved Z-axis precision during the printing process, ensuring greater accuracy and consistency in the vertical dimension. These qualities make the Smooth PEI Plate an excellent choice for printing parts that demand a high level of fit accuracy, where precise alignment and tight tolerances are crucial.
Smooth and Matte Surface Finish
The use of a specially selected matte PEI sheet can impart a smooth and matte texture to the bottom surface of the printed object, enhancing its overall appearance.
Compatible with Various Filaments

Reliable Magnetic Adhesion to Prevent Warping
The Bambu Smooth PEI Plate features a 0.5mm-thick spring steel plate that enhances magnetic adhesion. This helps to prevent warping and ensure optimal print quality during 3D printing. It also helps when printing larger models with materials that are prone to warping such as ABS, PC, and Nylon.
Note: The Smooth PEI Sheet cannot be peeled off from the build plates.
Considerations
- Please note that with the Smooth PEI Plate on the A1, there is a higher risk of the plate curling from the corners, or the printed models to detach from the plate. This is caused by the thicker Smooth PEI applied to the plate, which will increase the distance from the bed magnets and lower the magnetic attraction.
- If bubbles appear on the bottom of the sheet, heating it on the heatbed at a temperature of no less than 80 degrees for several hours can be helpful in eliminating the bubbles.
- Deposition of dust and grease on the build plate decreases adhesion. It is recommended to regularly clean the surface with detergent and water to to maintain the best adhesion.
- Do not clean the Smooth PEI with Acetone, as it will damage the PEI surface.
- Always wait for a few minutes before removing printed models to allow the plate to cool down for easy print removal. This prevents damage to the plate and ensures a long lifetime of the product.
- Carefully sanding the surface with fine-grit (600 was recommended) sandpaper can help restore adhesion.
- The Smooth PEI plate is considered a consumable part, which will degrade over time. The warranty will only cover manufacturing defects, not cosmetic damage like scratches, dents, or cracks. Defective sheets upon arrival are the only ones covered by the warranty.
