EZFlex² for Sovol SV01

Adhesion Help - Check out our article here: EZMat/EZPei – Adhesion Tips and Tricks

ABS - You will need to use something like VisionMiner Nano Polymer to stick ABS to PEI, or use our EZMat on the other side of the plate. Smaller parts will stick but larger parts may lift without an adhesion promoter on the PEI surface

PETG/PCTG/TPU - If you are not careful with your 1st layer you can risk bonding the PETG/PCTG/TPU to the PEI surface. This will damage the surface. To prevent damage to the surface apply hairspray or PVA gluestick before printing PETG/PCTG/TPU on the PEI or EZMat surfaces

Part Removal - Make sure your plate is at close to room temp (under 30C) before removing parts. If you remove it when hot it is more likely to damage the surface.

Magnetic Base Compatibility - Using our plates with a 3rd party magnet may result in the plate warping as other brands' magnets are not as strong as ours. We can only guarantee the longevity and compatibility when using our magnet and our plates.

Maintain Proper Z Height - When starting a print make sure your bed is level and your nozzle is not too close to the bed (if using an ABL system check that your Z offset is correct and use the Babystepping to adjust during a print). Running the nozzle too close will damage the surface and/or embed the plastic into the sheet. Damage due to improper Z height is hard to fix and is not covered under warranty.

Cleaning - Keep the top and bottom of the plate clean as well as the magnet if you get anything on it. IPA is what is recommended to clean the plate and magnetic base. Make sure that no liquids or adhesives are on top of the magnet or bottom of the plate. If liquids are between the magnet and the plate it can damage and degrade the magnet so keep them dry and clean.

Proper Installation - The EZFlex system is designed to be installed on your printer bed directly. Do NOT attach our magnetic surface and/or flex plate with any type of clips and/or adhere the magnetic sheet to any other removable surface. The magnetic sheet must be adhered to the top of your printer bed directly.

SMOOTH PLATES SHIPPED AFTER 4/19/2021 WILL NOT HAVE A PROTECTIVE FILM ON THEM. WE ARE NOW REMOVING IT BEFORE SHIPMENT BECAUSE SOME CUSTOMERS WOULD NOT REMOVE IT BEFORE USING THE PLATES.

Dual Side Usage - When using the EZMat or other surface on the rear of the plate the magnetic strength will feel less than using a plate with only the PEI surface. We have tested using dual sided applications on our plates in house and they work well even with a surface on both sides. Some users have reported that on large prints having another surface on the rear can cause it to pull up from the magnet. Only apply a 2nd surface to the rear of the plate if you accept this risk.

Be sure to check your bed size. TH3D is not responsible for the wrong size ordered and/or errors in the listings. We try do our best to keep descriptions up to date but some manufacturers make changes to machines after release.

• PLA - 60C
• HTPLA - 60C
• PETG - 70-80C
• PCTG - 70-80C
• ABS - 100C

Our magnetic bases use an adhesive that works best on clean, bare aluminum. Attaching the magnetic base to a non-metallic surface, such as a polycarbonate mat, will cause premature failure of the adhesive. Adhesive failure due to improper installation is not covered under warranty.

Magnetic bases are intended to be used with our EZFlex plates ONLY. Do NOT put other surfaces on top of the magnetic base as some have reported that certain mirrors and/or glass can stick to the magnetic sheet which can damage it.

Do NOT print directly on top of the magnetic base. Printing on a magnetic base will cause irreparable damage to the magnetic base and is NOT covered under warranty. Always print on a designed-for-purpose build surface.

Please note that all PEI surfaces are pre-installed on the plates so you will not have to install them yourself. If you purchased the EZMat as well apply this to the side of the plate without the logo on it.

All plates and magnets are inspected to ensure full functionality to make sure they meet our standards for them. We only ship out plates that meet our QC standards.

Smooth PEI plates - These may have a non-uniform appearance under the PEI as that is the adhesive visible through the PEI sheet, this is normal. Additionally, the Smooth PEI plates may have small, cosmetic marks that do not affect functionality from manufacturing and handling.

Textured PEI plates - These may have a non-uniform color appearance as they are sprayed and the PEI is baked onto the plate, this is normal.Textured plates will have the texture covering the print area for the machines they fit (example: CR-10 has a 310x310 bed but print area is only 300x300).

Plates will not be exchanged if they are in these specifications. Only if a plate has a defect that affects it's functionality will be considered defective.

Why are there some variances in appearance with the plates?They are all sprayed (textured) or applied by hand (smooth). It is impossible (even with a machine) to make every single plate absolutely identical. The information provided above is so you know what to expect from the plates
