Easy to prepare if you follow instructions. First print of PP was perfect (with your filament and printer settings all adjusted correctly of course). Fantastic build plate which I will test with other compatible materials. I did have problems with the scan sticker for Bambu X1C. The instructions state that the orientation doesn't matter, but my printer wouldn't recognize the build plate until I re-oriented the sticker to match the Bambu Smooth PEI/High Temp plate. Other than that, perfect solution.
Absolutely fantastic must have. I was printing PP for a project and couldn’t find great support. This surface is perfect and parts come right off easily. You can print several materials on it, which I will use for as many varieties as I can since this is so good. If you’re printing PP, this is the best solution by far.
Amazing products, I used to have some cheap silicone mats and they got stained and sticky from the resin spills no matter how many times I cleaned them up with IPA they stayed like that, but the ones from wham bam clean up super easy and stay like brand new. I love the quality of their products.
Leaves subtle texture on the bottom of prints and sticks decently to pla and abs. Minus 1 star because I can’t do 4.5 stars and the pex sticks better to pla and abs. A great build plate for things like tpu and petg though!
I was using glass, and either couldn’t get prints to stick or couldn’t get them off. The PEX plate is awesome…prints are glass flat, and after letting it cool for a short time, pop right off.
Clean with rubbing alcohol, and every once in a while wash with dish soap.
My favourite plate on both my printers. I do use nano polymer adhesive with them every 4 or 5 prints and I get perfect results. Perfect adhesion and release. Could not be happier.
This build plate with PEX makes it so much easier to build with PLA. Initially the parts kept falling off because I didn't read the instructions to set the build plate temperature to 70C. Now that the temperature is correct, we have a perfect build and bottom is so shiny! No more gluing needed on the plate.
The handle is good to hold and the silicone wedge is perfect to help remix resin and help wipe the vat clean.
I am using it on RatRig V-Minion and with Beacon. And its working flawlesly. I am using recomended bed temperaterus and its just working. Great thing, i definately looking forward for it if i ever build another machine. Only thought - please update recomended temperature for other materials, its super helpfull - like i was missing HT-Petg ;)
Not great magnet was bigger than the Bill plate so sooner or later resin will get under it and it will come off or start to unstick like my other two that I bought for my elegoo printers. I should’ve learned from the first time, but I didn’t but I would never buy another wham bam plate again.
Great plate really, it's come to be my standby for everything from PLA to PA-CF
Can also tell this is a really good actual carbon fiber, compared to many of the other alibaba specials which are just stickers
Got it for the X1C and going to get one for the P XL next!
I was having trouble getting PLA to stick without any adhesion issues using the satin and textured prusa plates. Having a Bambu with the gold texture plate and having pla stick ridiculously well, I figured I would give this a try and hope for the same results. Printed an 8+ hour print and it stuck flawlessly. I then printed a large flat 28 hour print using the entire build surface and about 2 inches thick. It printed perfectly. So I decided to grab another plate during black Friday just to have incase I ever mess up the first one.
This was a gamechanger for me, and transformed my experience with the Ultimaker S5, and made the machine seem more in line with it's price tag.
I have purchased them on all 3 of my machines, and intend to be using this going forward.
The original glass build plate experience was very tedious and I hated having to use glue sticks for every print, introducing an element of variation as sometimes I would apply glue too thick, or not enough.
This Wham Bam PEX kit is amazing.
I am primarily printing ASA/ABS, and the adhesion is great, release when the part cools down is super easy (quick flex) and all I do is occasionally scuff with a green pad in a cross hatch direction, and clean with isopropyl alcohol.
I've also tried with PETG and PLA, and haven't had any issues.
This has improved my productivity greatly, I highly recommend this product!
One observation I have is, there does appear to be some visible marks/dots from the bed leveling operation, but it hasn't affected my print quality. I've done multiple large ABS prints and it has so far been successful.
I don't usually write reviews but I'm just very happy with this product, and if you are on the fence about this, don't be.
The Wham Bam is very well made and well designed. Now prints just pop off.
No stickers on build plate, current firmware on Bambu x1c and i get the error build plate marker not found. I recommend sticking with genuine bambu labs build plates.
We apologize for any confusion, the stickers (strip of 5) are included in the extras bag with the prep instructions. Please double-check your packaging and if you do not see it, contact info@WhamBamSystems.com and we would be happy to send you a replacement so you do not have this issue!
Wham Bam did it again and made the ultimate tools for any resin printer. They should be in your tool box now.
I accidentally grabbed the wrong size for my 300x300 Voron so this plate is a bit large but I spent the money so I wanted to try it anyway. I bought it specifically for printing PETG nerf blaster parts and TPU grips. Once I found a spot to get the plate on my bed without bumping into anything I ran a plate of PETG parts. I needed to bump up my normal PETG bed temp by 5c on the first layer to get good adhesion. When the print finished and the plate cooled the part came right off as advertised just like you'd see with PEI but unlike PEI I didn't damage the plate on a smooth print.
Ran a TPU print and while the print didn't slide off effortlessly like the PETG print it did peel off with little effort. Neither print left any residue on the bed.
Then I ran an ASA print, a license plate cover, again I needed to bump up the bed temp by 5c for good adhesion and this time I needed some glue stick to keep the corners from lifting. No issues removing the print from the bed, but needing to use glue stick means I'll save the plate for instances I need a smooth surface or for PETG or TPU prints.
If they make one to fit a 300x300 Voron bed I'll replace the K1 Max one I bought for that one.
its not a carbon fiber plate its a stick-on
I thought for 90.00 I was getting a real CF plate
Hi Colon,
Our Carbon Fiber Flexi Plates are made of woven, authentic 3k carbon composite panels. We mount it to our Spring Steel Flexi Plate so it will attach to your printer with a magnet. If you have any other questions about your Carbon Fiber Flexi Plate, please reach out to our technical support team at technical@whambamsystems.com and they would be happy to assist!
I got this for my M5S. I was worried since you can't manually adjust the leveling that this would make it too tall and break the screen. It did not, and it has been perfect. Prints are so easy to take off now.
Slam dunk. Best carbon fiber weave plate I own. And I own a lot due to having 5 printers.
