Regardless of the heat bed you are using, you should generally use these temperatures (heat deflection points) for PLA and ABS: +1. For PLA 50-60°C +2. For ABS 100-110°C + +### Heated Beds Using PCBs as Heating Element: +---- +[We recommend the PCB heat bed]( http://bootsindustries.com/heat-bed-3d-printing/) as the heating elements. These are available with the budget 3D printers. However, these won’t last long if your 3D printing projects are complex and require frequent jobs with 3D printers. In short, they are meant for smaller projects that do not take much longer to complete. +### Recommended PCB HEAT BED: +---- +• The [MK2A heat bed (200mm x 200mm)](https://www.amazon.de/-/en/MK2-a-heated-bed-300-x-200-mm/dp/B01NBEX91J) is a good example of a PCB heat bed. These heat beds are used by many 3D printers due to their great performance and affordability. + +• This particular heat bed has 2 integrated LEDs and an integrated resistor which makes it rather ‘plug and play’ when compared to other solutions. + -- GitLab
