Sensors Compatibility Alert
Attention: Regrettably, not all sensors seamlessly integrate with our Garolite plates. At present, we strongly advise against acquiring this plate if you are using an induction sensor.
Which Sensors Are Compatible?
- Contact Sensors: Sensors like the BL Touch and nozzle probes are fully compatible.
- Capacitive Sensors: Ideal for detecting surfaces, such as glass.
- High-Sensitivity Induction Sensors: Sensors like the SuperPinda work effectively.
Why Does Prusa Work, But My Sensor Doesn't?
Prusa utilizes the advanced "Super P.I.N.D.A," which responds to 40% aluminum foil. Although not flawless, by positioning the nozzle very close, it can effectively detect surfaces. Please be aware that this is at your own risk; while not guaranteed, tests have shown promising results.
Future Compatibility Improvements?
Absolutely! We are actively developing a system to enhance compatibility in the future. While this new system may not be optimal for the Beacon, it will significantly improve functionality for older systems. This means a broader range of printers will soon be able to use our plates.
Stay tuned for more updates, and we sincerely appreciate your understanding and patience.
