Magnets on a LEF-20 Bed

Post by PhillyDee » Tue Jul 11, 2017 10:49 am

Hallo, I design and make my own jigs, and am looking at adding some magnetic hold downs onto the bed of the printer in a jig. Is it ok to add magnetss, will it do anything funny to the print heads? Ive tried calling the office, but they are apparently not open today

Avoid the ultra strong hard disk magnets. Regular ones are ok.

Hmm, they are the 3mm rare earth ones (same as from hard drives) I was planning on using, might change the plans to use ferrous ones then. Cheers :)
