Mosaic Print Bed Type I

Product Title

Mosaic Print Bed Type I - Flexible Steel Surface | Compatible Element

Description

The Print Bed Type I This is the standard build plate for the Mosaic Element printer. Made with a flexible, coated metal surface, it allows for easy removal of printed models by simply bending the plate. This is the recommended option for printing with most standard Mosaic materials.

Installation

Positioning : Align the plate and lower it into the correct position - the magnetic fastening will automatically lock it in place
Standard Configuration : Make sure the plate is NOT resting on the skis (side skates)
Usage : Ready to print immediately after placement
Removal after printing : Bend the plate slightly to detach the model

When to Use Type I

Rapid prototyping
Prints in standard materials (PLA, PETG, ABS, Nylon)
Soluble or removable supports
Production of short series
General and everyday use

Maintenance

Cleaning : Gently clean the surface after each print.
Inspection : Check for warping (deformations)
Replacement : Recommended after wear or loss of adhesion

Important Notes

⚠️ For PEEK and PEKK prints : Do not use Print Bed Type I. The Print Bed Type II at high temperature.

✓ Flexibility : The flexible surface allows for easy detachment of models without damaging the printed parts.

✓ Universal Compatibility : Works with all Element series printers.

Mosaic Print Bed Type II

Product Title

Mosaic Print Bed Type II - High Temperature Flexible Surface | PEEK/PEKK Compatible

Description

The Print Bed Type II This is a specialized print bed for high-temperature materials like PEEK and PEKK. Designed to withstand extreme printing temperatures, it includes a skid system to prevent warping during critical high-temperature prints. It's the essential option for advanced engineering applications.

Technical Specifications

Characteristic	Detail
Type	Type II (High Temperature)
Surface Material	High temp flexible coated metal.
Main Compatibility	PEEK, PEKK, High temperature materials
Maximum Plate Temperature	120°C (supports HT processes up to 500°C nozzle)
Removability	Magnetic (with flexible ease-off)
Containment System	Adjustable skis with 2.5mm bolts
Skis Function	Preventing warping at extreme temperatures
Assembly/Disassembly	< 30 seconds (adjustable skis)
Identification	Label printed on the front-right
Serial Number	Unique for every bed

Material Compatibility

Material	Compatible	Notes
PEEK	✓ Yes	Main use Type II
PEKK	✓ Yes	Main use Type II
Ultem 9085	✓ Yes	If with Print Head HT
HT Composite Materials	✓ Yes	Carbon fiber reinforced
Mosaic PLA	✗ No	Using Type I
Mosaic PETG	✗ No	Using Type I
Mosaic ABS	✗ No	Using Type I
Mosaic Nylon	✗ No	Using Type I
TPU / Flexible	✗ No	Using Type I

Installation for HT Prints

Base Positioning : Align the plate and lower it into the correct position - the magnetic fixing will lock it in place
Skis Activation (Essential) :
- Use a 2.5mm hex key
- Slightly loosen the ski bolts
- Push the skis inward to accommodate the plate
- Tighten the bolts again
Skis Function : Prevents bed warping during high temperature prints
Post-Print : Loosen and bring the skis outwards before removing the plate

When to Use Type II

Engineering materials prints (PEEK, PEKK)
Aerospace, automotive, medical applications
High-strength functional parts
Environments requiring heat-resistant materials
Prints with Print Head HT (High Temperature)

Ski Containment System

The ski system is critic for the success of PEEK/PEKK prints:

Warping Prevention : Keeps the platter perfectly flat during extreme thermal cycles
Adhesion : Ensures the maintenance of correct first-layer adhesion
Precision : Ensures required dimensional tolerances for functional parts
Adjustment : 2.5mm bolts allow for precise pressure adjustment

Maintenance

Regular Inspection : Check that the skis are in good condition
Cleaning : Clean the surface after each print (residue can block skis)
Alignment : Periodically check that the skis are parallel
Replacement : Recommended after heavy printing or wear

Important Notes

⚠️ Exclusive Use : Type II is optimized for PEEK/PEKK. It is not required for standard materials.

⚠️ Skis Required : Always activate skis before printing with Type II to prevent catastrophic deformations.

✓ Flexibility : The flexible surface allows for easy release even from hard materials like PEEK.

✓ Robustness : Built to withstand repeated thermal cycling up to 500°C (nozzle) without degradation.
