This is an alternate, optional build platform for the EPAX E10 3D printer. Its top bracket is unique to E10 printers. All E10s can be upgraded to a metal build plate.
Make sure that you order these for your E10 printer. This is not for the X10 printer.
It is made from soft aluminum with a sandblasted surface for the best adhesion and print removal, and it is constructed to be stable for minimal re-leveling.
Be sure to get the correct version for your E10. The 14/16K version will not fit on a 4/5/8K E10 and the 4/5/8K version will not fit on a 14/16K E10.
Metal Build Plate benefits
Using this build platform will minimize resin accumulation on the top of the plate, allowing it to more readily drip back into the vat during printing. This makes clean-up and print removal faster, easier, and less messy overall so that you can spend more time printing.
This build plate comes with all of the parts necessary to install it quickly and easily into your printer. All that is necessary is to calibrate the plate to your machine. It is calibrated in the same way as our other build plates.
If you are upgrading an older E10 that has a plastic build plate, you'll also need the E10 metal build arm kit. The metal plates will not fit onto the plastic build arm. You can find the metal build arm kit here.
The way to install it is similar to X10's build plate. Please refer to the below video for installation:
Here at EPAX 3D, we genuinely want you to be completely satisfied and enjoy your EPAX printer. We stand behind our printers and if something goes wrong, we are here to help.
