#Heated bed not working with Tyson build plate

Hello friends! I bought a 2yo 355mm Voron 2.4 that is great shape with about 400 printer hours on it. I used to have a Sovol Zero with a the small Tyson build plate and it worked flawlessly so I shelled out for the build plate for this one.

I am finding that my prints are not sticking to the Tyson bed but are sticking okay to a thinner PEI sheet withthat came with the printer if I use glue.

Thoughts on how to figure out what the problem might be?

Welcome! Lets start with some pictures

#

Also, when you get a chance, can you please select a country flag at #rules

I picked a flag and when I do a print tomorrow (I am doing one right now with the flexible textured PEI plate) I will use the Tyson plate and take pictures

Got some pictures of what happens

#

My print on the regular textured PEI plate with glue worked just fine.

looks like your z offset is too high

take a look at that tuning guide to get started

Every time it prints I am like 99% sure it is doing tap configuration for the Z offset

#

But thank you for the suggestion

#

Follow-up question - should I do the calibration hot or cold?

Even with a tap, the correct z offset often varies a bit between different build plates (not a lot, but enough to make prints not stick sometimes).

#

I don't think temperature matters all that much, but might as well do it at "the usual temperature" where measurements are done during prints (typical bed temp, hotend at 150°C).
