The 3D printer’s build surface, often referred to as the heat bed, plays a pivotal role in securing the optimal adherence of printing materials during the printing process. Comprising a flat, conductive material, typically aluminum or glass, this bed is equipped with a heating element. This element facilitates the maintenance of a uniform and steady temperature throughout the build surface.

Furthermore, the inclusion of a level sensor serves as a critical add-on, aiding in the harmonization of the heat bed with various other components, including drivers and springs. This synchronization not only promotes the production of superior-quality prints but also ensures the seamless and efficient execution of the printing procedure.
