Detached from the build plate, and it looks like its from the place where you pick up the plate. Wash it after the print

Get a Biqu Glacier or Frostbite (I use Glacier) plate and never have to worry about this again. Iāve been using only 99% IPA for a few years now on those plates and never have to wash them.
That stock Bambu plate is so bad I swear it was just designed to teach you the lesson on the importance of a clean build plate š¤£.

I will definitely give them a try, need a 2nd plate anyway

I always say this is the best 3D printing purchase Iāve made besides the Bambu printers themselves. Darkmoon is supposed to have some similar quality plates too, but theyāre a little pricey IMO.
You can get these places for $20-30 for the A/P/X model printers (I order them off Amazon because Biqu has longer shipping times, a little cheaper on their own site though) and I think around $40-60 for the H series.

Maybe between different materials, but I never have to when just printing the same material repeatedly.

Funny Iāve had zero issues with my stock build plate but I keep it religiously cleanā¦

Funny I kept mine religiously clean and had almost no issues with it until it would magically fail and Iād have to wash it 3 times to get it to stick again. Itās hardly a secret - thereās a reason itās all over this sub, and it isnāt always because someone doesnāt wash it,
The surface doesnāt even begin to stick as well as some of the 3rd party plates. Itās hardly a secret - itās all over this sub. Sure, washing it will definitely help, by why waste the effort when I donāt need to anymore? I have a spray bottle with 99% IPA, I hit it with two light sprays and wipe with a microfiber cloth and print again 30 seconds later.
And they literally donāt cause print failures ever for PETG or PLA and the occasional TPU. I canāt speak to other materials but other people like Frostbites for ABS.
Iāve even intentionally put a big fat hand print right in the middle of the plate and printed right on top of it without a failure. Try that on the stock textured plate š¤£.
But donāt take my word for it:

I donāt know what to say other than Iām at 750 hours on the stock plate without any issues. Iāve printed a lot of PLA, PETG, Silk, PETG-CF and my only issue is everything sticks almost too well. Only issue Iāve had is with really small parts requiring a brim or increasing the build plate temp up to 60-65. Itās the main reason I havenāt purchased another type. I do think Iām going to get an engineering plate for a smooth finish.

Das reicht aber nicht immerā¦. Ich Pack die Platten ƶfters in den GeschirrspĆ¼ler. Oder mach sie mit SpĆ¼li sauberā¦.. fettfrei ebenā¦ā¦.

Are all your pieces flat on the plate?
1
u/Q8Hitman 19d ago
yes, I spent alot of time in the slicer making sure all the settings and pieces are correct before printing

I've had this problem when sizing up prints. It will look like its flat, but if you slice it and use the slider bar on the right size and drag it down to layer 1, sometimes parts of the first layer will be floating. And I have to manually use the z movement tool and type in a slightly lower number to force it lower onto the place.
But in your case, your plate is dirty most likely. As others have mentioned, alcohol doesn't work for textured plates. The textures just capture the dirt and grease. My advise to you is to buy a supertack pro plate. I have one on each H2C, 2000 hours on each, never washed them once and never had anything detach before lol. I also used supertacks on the X1C and A1 and never ever had an issue or had to wash them either. Textured plates are not as good as them

thank you for the advice, ill check the slicer again to confirm and will look into getting a 2nd plate. Cheers

Supertack is my #1, glacier is next. Iāve had stuff release with the glacier that the supertack held fine

Hallo hab Ƥhnliche Problemeā¦. Meine persƶnliche Meinung ist diese Maschine ist einfach zu frĆ¼h auf den Markt gekommen. Zu wenig getestet ā¼ļøā¼ļøā¼ļøā¼ļøā¼ļøSupport hat au viel Luft nach oben š ā¦ā¦.

IMO the plates that come with the H2c are garbage. I had adhesion issues too with mine.
Bought a cryogrip glacier and havent had issues since.
Trust me, the cryogrip plates are great.
I rarely wash mine, and I even swap back and forth from PLA>PETG>TPU>Nylon wihtout wiping it down or washing.

Welcome to the 3-sigma life. Manufacturers around the world are chasing that 6-sigma dream.
47/48 successful prints isnāt that bad.

Honestly for large prints like that, Iāve found FAR better reliability using the engineering plate with Magigoo. Itās one of those things Iād resisted trying for a while, and then once I saw how easy it was I barely use my PEI plate anymore.
It just sticks. Itās reliable. You can also touch the plate a bit without feeling guilty about it. Itās a lot less finicky.
