When it comes to Bed Adhesion in 3D Printing, there are few brands who have quite nailed it like Wham Bam Systems have, with their exciting range of simplified Bed Adhesion Aids and their clever way of using these flexi steel plates in conjunction with the 235x235mm Magnetic Base (Not Included) for ultimate ease of use. However, although their range of Flexible Build Systems and Build Surfaces are already made for exceptional quality, sometimes a silly mistake or unexpected problem can cause damage to these build surfaces, and that’s what’s gotten us so excited about their cool new range of Preinstalled Flexi Plates.
This Wham Bam PEX Preinstalled Flexi Plate is one great example from this preinstalled range, and is essentially a standard Wham Bam 235x235mm Flexi Plate that has simply been pre-equipped with a reliable Wham Bam 235x235mm PEX Build Surface. This helps to save time and reduce any chances of mistakes when applying the build surface, and ensures that your equipment is ready to offer the level of convenience and ease-of-use that you need when striving for exceptional 3D Printing quality. It is built to fit the widely popular Ender 3, CR-20 and Ender 5 series of 3D Printers, with the PEX surface being specially made to provide all of the best features of PEI, but without any of the downsides. Furthermore, these preinstalled plates are also perfect as spares, as a secondary build surface allows you keep on printing even while waiting for one print to cool, while also being a great alternative option if you already have a PEI Build Surface or PC Build Surface that you like to use.
Please Note: This pre-installed flexi plate consists of just the Flexible Build Plate and the PEX Adhesion Aid Build Surface, and will work fine as it, but offers the best effect when used in conjunction with the Magnetic Mounting Base featured in the full Wham Bam Flexible Build Systems.

Finally, the following video is a great review and build guide for the Wham Bam Flexible Build System from Teaching Tech, in which he compares it to the classic Creality CMagnet Bed, and shows off some of the key features that set it apart from competitors:
Wham Bam Systems is a funky, lively brand created by Peter Solomon, who has actually been a relatively well known inventor for 45 years now. From developing laboratory methods and protocols, to work on complex interferometer mechanisms, Peter has been applying for patents since as far back as 1984 – and now his most recent work is the reinvention of the 3D Printer Build Platform. This is how Wham Bam Systems started, and since 2019 they have been gaining popularity as some of the most effective and most convenient build plate systems on the market.
Catering to a large range of popular 3D Printers from leading hobbyist 3D Printer brands, Wham Bam Systems offers some of the best build plates on the market, and with the recent addition of the Wham Bam HotBox to their catalogue, we can’t wait to see what else Wham Bam Systems has in the pipeline for future upgrades.
