The wait is over! The Darkmoon LUX build plate for Bambu Lab is finally here! Make your prints STUNNING with a highly reflective surface layer on top of exceptional adhesion!

Print all kinds of materials, from PLA and TPU to ABS and PC! Take your print farm to the next level by presenting your customers with high quality, reflective bottom surfaces!

Note: Materials other than PLA and TPU recommend light glue application.

LUX Plates have a mirror finish that tends to falsely trigger Bambu Lab's "Foreign Object Detection" before each print, requiring the user to manually dismiss the warning. Please consider that before purchasing. ?

Bambu Lab's Foreign Object Detection occasionally misidentifies the highly reflective surface of LUX plates as a foreign object on the build plate. When this happens, the printer will pause before the print begins and prompt you to manually confirm before continuing. As of May 2026, this check cannot be disabled, and the prompt may appear before every print, though how often it triggers seems to vary by printer.
Size: 256mm (X1/P1/A1)

Reflective Bottom Surface

The best feature of the Darkmoon LUX build plate is the incredible reflective surface that can almost be used as a mirror in good lighting and dark filaments! Check out this comparison between the LUX and the standard smooth PEI plate.

Here are some good starting points for various materials. Please note that if you print using a material other than PLA or TPU, glue will likely be required. The glue is used for release from the plate and sometimes for additional adhesion. PVA glue sticks spread with water or IPA are recommended.

PETG always requires glue for release or permanent damage to the build plate can be expected.

Users should assume that glue is required outside of PLA and TPU and may experiment with small prints in far corners of the build plate if they want to see if glue may not be required.

Damage to the build plate can be mitigated by gently roughing the surface with sand paper. Please see the Darkmoon LUX Build Plate User Guide for more information on how to maintain, clean, and service your LUX build plate.
