Aluminum printing bed + GFRP print plate for Artillery Sidewinder X1 / X2
The
GFRP permanent printing plate is the ideal basis for perfect prints:
very good adhesion, flat and smooth surface, extremely wear-resistant and - very important -
no toxic fumes.
It complements perfectly with our
aluminium printing bed. Because the great weakness of the Artillery Sidewinder X1 / X2 is its glass printing bed, which has an uneven heat distribution and is also not flat. With our selected high-quality aluminium plate, you achieve an evenly distributed stable temperature over the entire printing bed.
And megacool:
the plate is completely smooth, without any annoying holes. A printing foil could therefore also be glued directly onto it!
The Sidewinder X1 / X2 heating mat can be taken over: simply carefully remove it from the Sidewinder X1 / X2 glass printing bed, which has been preheated to 80 degrees (disconnect the printer from the mains before!) and glue it to our aluminium plate.
Aluminum printing bed:
- High quality printing bed made of aluminium
- Cast aluminium plate finely milled and deburred on both sides
- Realisation without drillings and accompanying screwing, which can cause tensions. You also have the option of applying a printing foil directly
- The four fixing screws are glued to the cast aluminium plate with one of the strongest adhesives (temperature-resistant up to 315 degrees). Very important: There is no (!) drop in temperature at the four gluing points, unlike the original Artillery glass plate. This is due to the enormous thermal conductivity of aluminium and the small area bonding
- High accuracy of fit
- Very good heat distribution. The heat differences of up to 20 degrees known from the Sidewinder X1 / X2 glass plate are reduced enormously to only about 2-3 degrees over the entire bed
- M6 hole with thread in one of the corners for attaching a protective conductor (earthing)
- The Sindewinder's X1 / X2 heating mat and the four springs can be taken
- Sindewinder X1: An M3 slot stone for repositioning the end stop can be found in the spare parts supplied by Artillery
310 mm x 310 mm x 5 mm
approx. 1324 g including screws (1271 g "gross weight" plate)
Alloy: AlMg4,5Mn0,7
GFRP continuous printing plate:
- GFRP/Epoxy continuous printing plate
- High-quality bidirectional GFRP plate made of E-glass filament fabric and epoxy resin matrix
- Includes 8 clamps for fixing to the printing bed. The clamps are smaller than usual and fit perfectly to our aluminium printing bed and the Artillery heating mat
- Best industrial quality
- Excellent adhesion, for example with PLA, PETG, TPU etc.
- Extremely wear resistant
- Can be used on both sides
- Sandable (please wear a breathing mask)
- The surface is completely smooth, so no disturbing structures are transferred to your print object
- Cleaning with isopropanol is not necessary, but occasionally recommended
- Toxicity: free from halogen, antimony compounds, nitrogen compounds, sulphur and phosphorus
- Temperature resistance: 130 °C
310 ± 1 mm x 310 mm ± 1 x 1 mm

Attention, important warnings:
- Please do not fail to connect the cast aluminium plate with the protective earth conductor. Otherwise there is a danger of electric shock if the heating mat is defective!
- Conversion work on the printer is at your own risk
- All electrical work must be carried out and checked by a trained specialist
- No liability is accepted for damage caused by incorrect or improper installation
