The heatbed in the X1 series printer is a platform installed inside the printer chamber. It can move up and down along the Z-axis and can be heated based on the temperature set by the user. Setting an appropriate heat bed temperature can enhance model adhesion to the build plate, preventing warping.
Important to know
Please refer to the Wiki page here (external link) to check the version of your X1 Series Heatbed Unit.
The X1 series printers currently have both Heatbed Unit V3 and V2 heatbed options. All printers will eventually shift to the V3 heatbed.
Heatbed Unit V3 is more user-friendly for replacement, while maintaining the same functionality as the Heatbed Unit V2. This change is part of our updated production schedule.
In addition, please note that different versions of the heatbed must correlate to the relevant version of the AC board.
If your printer initially had a Heatbed Unit V2 and you intend to upgrade to a Heatbed Unit V3, it's essential to upgrade the original AC board to the version compatible with the Heatbed Unit V3.
If your Heatbed Unit V2 is faulty and needs to be replaced under warranty, Bambu will provide a replacement Heatbed Unit V3 + AC Board free of charge under warranty.
If your printer is out of warranty, you will need to purchase the Heatbed Unit V3 replacement and Bambu will provide the AC Board free of charge as a one time courtesy.
To do so, please open a ticket by following this link (external link), and our team will handle your request ASAP.
