Removing a print from the bed
Once your 3D print is finished it must be removed from the build plate.
Always let the print bed cool down to room temperature before removing the print.
Otherwise you can damage the bed!
There are several methods to remove the printed object from the bed on room temperature.
After cooldown is completed, just remove the loosened prints from the bed. (photo left)
Use a spatula under the edge of a print, keep the spatula always as flat as possible parallel with the bed to
avoid scratches or damage to the bed. Apply a little amount of force to remove the print of the bed. (photo right)
Still stuck? Try some handwarm water around the model and leave it for a few minutes.
When you print a product with a brim, be aware of the danger of cutting yourself when removing the
print from the build plate. A brim can be very sharp!
