CARBON FIBER SURFACE SHEET

Transform ordinary prints into cutting-edge creations with the Bambu Carbon Fiber Surface Sheet.

It adds a very slight texture, similar to real Carbon Fiber, onto the first layer of your part to create a 3D effect with a distinctive texture. Combine it with gray carbon-colored filaments to impart a professional, industrial-grade finish that looks and feels like the real deal.

STARRY SURFACE SHEET

Make your prints shine brighter than the stars with the Bambu Starry Surface Sheet.

The first layer of your 3D printed model will have a rainbow kaleidoscope starry effect that glitters and changes color, depending on the angle. Leave everyone starry-eyed when you combine this with silky or shiny filaments.

FAQ

Do the Bambu Lab 3D Effect Sheets come pre-applied?

No. You must manually apply the Effect sheet onto a compatible steel build plate yourself before use.

Can the Bambu 3D Effect Sheet be applied to both sides of a steel build plate?

Yes. For best results, apply the Bambu 3D Effect Sheets only on the official steel plate from Bambu Lab.

Can other official Bambu Lab build plates be used for Bambu 3D Effect Sheet application?

The Bambu Engineering Plate (the other side of Bambu Cool Plate/High Temp Plate) can also be used for applying the Bambu 3D Effect Sheets if you remove the previous sheet and clean any glue residue completely, before installing the 3D Effect Sheet.

  • Make sure the surface is dry and clean before the application.

What Plate Type do I set it as once I've applied the Bambu Effect 3D Sheet onto a build plate?

Set the Plate Type to Smooth PEI/High Temp Plate and carefully follow the Heatbed Recommended Settings when using the Bambu 3D Effect Sheets.

Can I apply glue to the Bambu 3D Effect Sheet?

No, do NOT apply glue to the sheet surface.

Are the Bambu 3D Effect Sheets made to last?

The 3D Effect Sheets are considered consumables. To prolong the lifespan of the transfer textures, place your print objects on different areas of the sheet.

What maintenance tips are recommended for the Bambu Lab Effect 3D Sheets?

  • Keep it Clean - It's essential to keep the surface clean for the 3D effect patterns to remain visible. Grease can cause the patterns to disappear. Use hot water and detergent for cleaning, and avoid touching the surface.
  • Take Pre-caution with Scrapers - Pay close attention when using a scraper to remove prints, to avoid damaging the sheet surface.

Do the Bambu 3D Effect Sheets affect any printing workflows?

Due to reflections, the LIDAR calibration will not work as expected when using Effect Sheets. Either skip the LIDAR calibration sequence or calibrate with a regular plate.

Which materials are recommended for printing on the Bambu 3D Effect Sheet?

PLA and TPU are recommended.

  • Note that other slicer settings might need to be adjusted based on the printed model and the filament requirements. Reminder---select Smooth PEI Plate/High Temp Plate for the Plate Type in Bambu Studio.
  • For X1 Series users, disable the Build Plate Position Detection in 'Settings ->Print Options -> Enable the detection of build plate position' when printing with the 3D Effect Sheet to avoid error reports.

What settings do you recommend for printing PLA / TPU on the Bambu 3D Effect Sheet?

Filaments Heatbed Temperature
PLA 60 - 65℃
TPU 35 - 45°C



How Do I Install the Bambu 3D Effect Sheet?



STEP 1 - CLEAN

Clean the surface of the build plate where you'll attach the effect sheet.

  • Use isopropyl alcohol and microfiber cloth.
Clean the build plate you will put the Bambu Lab 3D Effect Sheet on
Place the Bambu plate and Effect Sheet on to the Fixture tool

STEP 2 - SET UP

Place the build plate and Bambu 3D Effect Sheet onto the Fixture Tool.

STEP 3 - SECURE

Securely tighten the two screws on both ends of the Fixture Tool.

Tighten down the fixture tool onto the Bambu Lab 3D Effect Sheet and plate
Peel the adhesive film behind the Bambu Lab 3D Effect Sheet half way. Then apply the open sticky part onto the Bambu Lab build plate

STEP 4 - PEEL & APPLY

Peel the adhesive film (located on the back) half way off. Then align the sheet with the plate and attach the edge.

STEP 5 - LOOSEN

Loosen the screws and set them aside. Keep one of the fixtures.

Unscrew the fixture screws and set the tool aside except for one piece, which you will use to apply the rest of the Bambu Lab 3D Effect sheet
Finish applying the rest of the Bambu Lab 3D Effect Sheet onto the Bambu Lab build plate

STEP 6 - APPLY ALL THE WAY

Use the fixture tool you kept from Step 5 as a squeegee for pressing the sheet down onto the plate as you continue removing the adhesive film.

STEP 7 - REMOVE

Remove the clear film that's on top of the Bambu 3D Effect sheet.
