Pin Configuration

  • Component Documentation: 214x214mm Heat Bed Sticker Build Plate Tape with Adhesive Backing for 3D Printer
  • Overview
  • The 214x214mm Heat Bed Sticker Build Plate Tape with Adhesive Backing is a popular component used in 3D printing applications. It is designed to provide a durable and heat-resistant surface for printing, ensuring consistent and high-quality prints. This documentation will focus on the pinouts and connection guide for the heat bed sticker.
  • Pinouts
  • The heat bed sticker typically has a set of pinouts that need to be connected to the 3D printer's main board or power supply unit (PSU). The pinouts are usually labeled and colored for easy identification. Here is a breakdown of each pin:
  • VCC (Red Wire): This pin connects to the positive voltage supply (+V) of the power source, typically 12V or 24V depending on the 3D printer's specifications.
  • GND (Black Wire): This pin connects to the ground (GND) of the power source, providing a common return path for the heat bed's current.
  • Signal (Yellow or White Wire): This pin connects to the heat bed control signal on the 3D printer's main board, which regulates the heat bed's temperature. The signal is usually a PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) signal that controls the heat bed's power output.
  • Connection Guide
  • To connect the heat bed sticker to the 3D printer's main board or PSU, follow these steps:
  • 1. Power Connections:
  • Connect the VCC (Red Wire) to the positive voltage supply (+V) on the PSU or main board.
  • Connect the GND (Black Wire) to the ground (GND) on the PSU or main board.
  • 2. Signal Connection:
  • Connect the Signal (Yellow or White Wire) to the heat bed control signal on the main board.
  • Ensure the signal pin is connected to the correct pin on the main board, as specified in the 3D printer's documentation or manual.
  • 3. Thermal Connection (Optional):
  • If your heat bed sticker has a built-in thermistor or thermocouple, connect the thermal sensor wires to the corresponding pins on the main board or temperature control module.
  • Ensure the thermal sensor wires are securely connected to prevent damage or inaccurate temperature readings.
  • 4. Mounting and Adhesive:
  • Clean the heat bed sticker's adhesive backing and the 3D printer's heat bed surface.
  • Apply the heat bed sticker to the heat bed surface, ensuring proper alignment and adhesion.
  • Allow the adhesive to set before using the 3D printer.
  • Important Notes
  • Ensure the power supply meets the heat bed sticker's voltage and current ratings to prevent damage or overheating.
  • Consult the 3D printer's documentation or manual for specific connection instructions, as pinouts and connections may vary.
  • Always handle the heat bed sticker and electrical connections with care to prevent damage or electrical shock.
  • By following this documentation, you should be able to properly connect and utilize the 214x214mm Heat Bed Sticker Build Plate Tape with Adhesive Backing for your 3D printing applications.

ser = serial.Serial('/dev/ttyUSB0', 115200)
# Set the heat bed temperature
ser.write(b"M140 S60
")  # Set heat bed temperature to 60C
# Wait for the heat bed to reach temperature
while True:
    temperature = ser.readline().decode().strip()
    if temperature == "ok":
        break
# Start the bed leveling process
ser.write(b"G29
")
# Wait for the bed leveling process to complete
while True:
    response = ser.readline().decode().strip()
    if response == "ok":
        break
