Warped bed?

Hi,

Since I red more and amore about X1C being affected by a warped bed: How to find out if mine also is affected?

Any hints?

Thank you!

Honestly, if you are not having issues don’t look for them :slight_smile: I’m pretty certain 99% of beds aren’t flat but the bed levelling seems to manage quite well. This is NOT a Creality machine, you don’t have to constantly touch it to keep it working.

That’s why I am asking, since I printed almost full-plate size and all corners lift up badly. SO I was wondering what is wrong, and wanted to evaluate if a warped bed is the reason.

Any hints for me how to check this?

As GenericUser said, if you aren’t confronted with the warped bed issue, you don’t really need to be looking for trouble. Here, the old adagio about “if it ain’t broken, don’t fix it” does apply.

One way would be to get a flat edge steel rule and check for clearance with the bed heated stable at 60c. You’re always going to get a tolerance, but you’ll need to check with Bambu Support how much the going rate is.

My suggestion is to chase why your print is warping, my guess is its not the plate (although cleanliness/adhesion may be a big factor). For that, you’ll need to supply lots more information. Model, plate, temperatures, material used, brims, etc.

Ask Bambulab support. They will see if it is out of specs. Mine was badly warped (1mm) and they immediately sent me a new bed.

It took me 3h however to install, so I would only do it if it is needed.
