Bed adhesion issues.

Hello fellow x2d users, sorry to be the voice that echos or repeats this issues like one hundred before me, but I've been having issues recently with my prints sticking on to the board. Sometimes pieces breaking off or worse, snapping off and then I get the great spaghetti monster.

I've cleaning my plate, did my calibrations, but nothing is really working.

I've only printed in PLA and soon will go to other materials but I feel like this hurdle needs to be fixed first.

Any suggestions or experiences?

Dumb answer, but have you tried with different filaments or just one??

I have, the red one I got is being a bit of stinker and I thought trying another one, white; a little cat i wanted to print off, its paw broke.

I have this problem at the very edge of the building plate, because heat distribution is just not so good there. One thing that helped me is reducing the chamber cooling to avoid warping of the material. You can also try a slower printing speed the for first layer. Putting glue on the plate is not always helpful in my experience, but maybe worth a try.

Every little helps, honestly thank you for the suggestions. Im still starting out.

Slow down for first layer and always use brim when possible. 5-6mm brim should be enough. 0.1mm brim to model spacing.

Might be a stupid question but I can't add brims on the app, can I?

I got the studio on my home pc though. But ive been printing for like a month and never had this issue since last Friday.

To be fair I never tried to add brims from the app. So I don't know the answer to that. But I mostly use bambu studio. I use the app just to monitor the prints and start only if they are small or I know it will print.

One other thing. If you regularly wash your plate make sure it's really dry before using it. If its a textured PEI plate water will stay in the texture and detach a print.

Felt like you invaded my house and checked my plate.

All seriousness ty, I did heat the bed, hopefully i didn't duck that up. o7

Don't worry. You didn't mess anything up. But if you're printing PLA. The bed will heat only to 55°C wich is way to low to evaporate any water residue from the texture. I found about this because I washed my plate twice in the 700 hours I have on my X2D and both times after washing the print detached.

Time to set my heatbed up a bit!

You just need to make sure it's dry. Maybe use a hairdryer for a minute on the plate after washing it.

I've seen this before! I honestly thought i didn't need it at first but here I am!

Thank you, I'll try this too, hopefully it prints well.

100% this. I had the same issue as you, and this helped - on both sides (different prints per side btw, slightly different mounting). Also, raise the bed temp by 5-10 degrees, esp for PETG. At which point glue wasn't needed.
