SIMPLE UPGRADE, BIG RESULTS
No matter the shape, size, or design of your 3D printer, adding a BuildTak FlexPlate System converts it to a removable print bed system. Instead of reaching into your 3D printer and removing parts there, you can now remove your FlexPlate from the entire print bed along with your finished 3D printed part. Take your FlexPlate and finished part to your chosen workspace, bend the FlexPlate in any direction, and your 3D print should effortlessly pop off of the BuildTak print surface. This simple upgrade to your 3D printer can make a world of difference. Once you experience the ease of using a FlexPlate with BuildTak, you’ll never want to print on anything else.
MAXIMIZE YOUR MACHINE TIME
BuildTak Sheets have been a favorite 3D printing surface for over two years, and the FlexPlate System makes utilizing BuildTak even easier. Available in a variety of sizes to fit all kinds of 3D printers on the market, simply install the Magnetic Base on top of your 3D printer’s existing print bed, adhere a BuildTak sheet to the FlexPlate, and magnetically attach the FlexPlate to the Magnetic Base. After your 3D print is finished, the FlexPlate with the BuildTak sheet can be easily detached from the print bed, flexed in any direction, and with a gentle twist, your 3D printed part should separate from the print bed cleanly. Replace the FlexPlate back onto the Magnetic Base, and you're ready to print again!
The BuildTak FlexPlate makes removing prints quick and easy!

Questions
How do you mount the BuildTak system on the Max? The glass build plate, the magnetic mounting base, which is adhered to the build plate, and the flexplate are all 12” in diameter? The glass build plate with the attached magnetic mounting plate should be held in place with the bed clips. When the bed clips are turned in it reduces the size of the build area. Since the flexplate is the same size as the build plate and mounting base the bed clips prevent the 12” flexplate from sitting on the mounting base. So, what am I missing?
it looks like we have to add 2 more layers to the boro glass on top of the heated bed. How does this affect the heat distribution and the accuracy? If it says 90C, is it really at 90C? Or do I now need to heat the bed to 100C?
Does the heat effect the magnets over long term use? How long do you expect the magnetic plate to last?
On a Rostock Max V2, does this completely replace the glass bed or does it sit on top of it?
Will this fit on the Artemis 300 by seemecnc?
Are you sure this works with PETG? I just started printing with my BuildTak sheets on the standard glass plate, and I could not get the PETG print to release.. it was very much bonded with the BuildTak. Is this the same type technology that is used in the Prusa Mk3 or different? Do I need to do something special to release the PETG prints from the BuildTak sheet? I ended up having to peel the BuildTak sheet from the glass plate and had to throw the hole thing out.
Does it comes with a smaller diameter? Like 10.5 inches.
How many Buildtak sheets does this come with?
Must have missed it, but I don't see anywhere where it says what plastics it works with, and bed temps, etc. I 'mostly' use PETG with 50/50 water/PVA solution at 90 deg bed temp. For PLA I have been using blue tape at 40 deg bed temp. Often I use a rum on stick glue on top of that. And, ABS - I even more rarely use due to wrap issues, and also the toxic fumes. But when i did use it I had to mix up ABS juice. But, i've got a few smaller pieces fine with the PVA mix. I have nylon rolls i hardly used because they wrapped too much, and I didn't use them enough to know what bed treatment worked for me. I live in FL and i will have to dry them in an oven first, which i never hassled with. Oh, and TPU, or whichever the flex material is. That, I have had to use hairspray to get that to hold reliably at 70 deg bed temp. So - will the build tak work with 'ALL' of these plastics, especially PETG and TPU, or would i also need to use a glue with it? Or does it only work with certain materials? And, I assume at the same 90 / 70 deg bed temp? Will PLA need a 40 deg bed temp?
Will this fit the Rostock Max V3?
Does the magnetic nature of the add on plate interfere with the calibration sensor of the Rostock Max V3?
The calibration sensor is not affected in any way. You can still level as before!
