ICE ICE BABY
Hot Summer. Cold Printer.
Print it Cold.
Warping is a thing of the past.
The DarkMoon ICE Build Plate can print PLA and PETG at ambient temperatures. Stop worrying about drafts in unclosed printers like the P1P and A1 and keep the aux fan on during prints on your P1S and X1C. Warping is a thing of the past.
Strong Adhesion. High Durability
The DarkMoon ICE features best-in-class adhesion by utilizing the gripping strength of textured PEI along with a coating of a special epoxy polymer. The PEI and epoxy work together to hold your prints tight.
Big Flexy.
While the ICE plate has unmatched adhesive qualities, you can also pop prints right off the build plate when you give a few flexes to each side.
Double Sided.
Double the lifespan of your plate and quickly start a new print if you happen to have dirtied up one side!
...and even more!
Easy Cleaning
Simply wipe the ICE plate with a damp washcloth to clean. Do NOT use any solvents like isopropyl alcohol or acetone. Water is all you need.
Bed Detection
The Textured PEI Plate ArUco (QR) code is included on the build plate so it may be recognized by the Bambu Lab X1C. The code is on both sides of the build plate.
Built for Bambu
We took great care to make the dimensions of our build plates as close to Bambu Lab’s OEM plates as possible, so the transition between Bambu Lab and DarkMoon build plates is totally seamless.
Recommended Temperatures
Like we said before, the ICE plate doesn't need heating, but it also won't hurt to add some if you feel like it. Here are some recommended bed temperatures for each supported material.
NOTE: While other materials like Nylons, PC, HIPS, etc. are not listed here, many users have reported success using these settings. They are still not recommended as long term use has not been studied.
25-60°C
30-70°C
Unsupported, do not print.
FAQ
How do I clean the ICE Plate?
Let us reiterate: DO NOT EVER clean the ICE build plate with isopropyl alcohol or acetone.
To clean the ICE plate, simply use hot water to wet a cloth and wipe down the build surface with mild force applied. You do not need to use soap or detergent.
Is it bad if my prints leave a ghost image behind once removed?
No, this will happen with various filaments. They fade quickly and typically do not transfer to the next surface. You can clean them off usually, but they always go away after a few more prints.
Why can't I print TPU?
TPU will fuse to the ICE plate surface. Please do not print TPU on it.
I can't remove my print!
Use a printed scraper to get under the edge of the print. Small surface area bottom layers can sometimes be hard to get off since flexing won't help much. Be patient and diligent and it will come off.
Can I use glue on the ICE plate?
Glue is not necessary or recommended. If you applied glue by mistake, use warm water and a washcloth to remove the glue.
