Dear all,

 

Long story short: I accidentally didn't put the glass plate on the heating plate.

I printed for about 3 min  on the heating plate before I realised I left a plate on the sink after cleaning.

Could you please tell me how can I remove it without damaging anything?

Is it too far gone?

 

Thank you,

Paulina

    I would warm the plate up to 75° or so and gently scrape it off with a putty knife.  It should be fairly round since without the glass there would be no squish to the build plate.  You do need to try to get the surface flat.  You wouldn't want a high spot in the middle that could cause the glass to rock back and forth.

      • Release Notes: S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 (Latest)

        Dustin posted a topic in Firmware,

        S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...
        All UltiMaker S series  
        New features
         
        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
