QIDI X-Smart 3 HF Plate - Flexible 3D Printing Surface | Qidi Tech Qidi 3D Printer
QIDI TECH 3D Printer X-Smart 3 HF Plate
The QIDI dual-sided textured HF Plate is a flexible magnetic build plate with sprayed dual-sided HF coating(Manganese added to the PEI Plate). During printing, the plate will provide better adhesion and easy print removal after cooling.
Note
- To ensure proper adhesion, regularly clean the printing surface with hot water and dish soap to remove any dust or grease residue.
- Avoid using acetone to clean the textured HF surface, as it may cause damage.
- To make removing printed models easier, wait a few minutes for them to cool down before attempting to remove them.

The Key Advantages of HF Plate
STRONG ADHESION: HF plates exhibit strong adhesion to surfaces, ensuring firm attachment of plastic materials during printing. This minimizes the risk of prints falling off or becoming deformed and ensures consistent print quality.
HIGH TEMPERATURE RESISTANCE: HF materials remain stable at high temperatures and withstand higher print temperatures. These properties make them suitable for engineering plastics that require high-temperature printing, such as ABS and PC.
CHEMICAL RESISTANCE: HF sheets have excellent chemical resistance to many common 3D printing materials and solvents, safeguarding against damage even from materials with strong chemical properties.
ANTI-ADHESION: HF surfaces are less likely to adhere to prints, streamlining the removal process and reducing the risk of accidental damage.
LONG LIFE: HF plates are robust print surface materials with extended lifespans. Compared to disposable print surface materials like tape or glue, they can be reused multiple times, reducing printing costs.
FLATNESS AND UNIFORMITY: HF plates typically exhibit high levels of flatness and surface uniformity, ensuring that the bottom surface of prints is flat and uniform.
ADAPTABILITY TO DIFFERENT MATERIALS: HF plates are compatible with multiple 3D printing materials, including ABS, PLA, PETG, PC, and more. This enables users to experiment with several materials on the same print surface without changing print beds.
ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY: HF is a recyclable material, aligning with increasing demands for sustainability and environmentally aware practices.
