Matt's take
Bed temperature is the quiet spec that separates "can print ABS if you cross fingers" from "prints ABS reliably". Most PLA-focused machines top out at 70-80 °C because that is all PLA needs. ABS wants 100-110 °C, ASA similar, and filled nylons 90-110 °C. Without that bed heat, corners peel as the print cools and you end up running a brim or raft on every part. Pair with an active heated chamber for best results - bed heat alone helps but doesn't fully solve warp on tall ABS.
Frequently asked
Do I need a 100 °C heated bed? +
Only if you print ABS, ASA, or filled nylons. PLA and PETG are happy at 60-80 °C. If you never leave PLA territory, a high-temp bed is unused capability.
Why does bed temperature matter for ABS? +
ABS shrinks as it cools from its 100 °C+ print temperature. A hot bed keeps the bottom layers near glass transition, so the shrink happens gradually rather than snapping the print off the plate at hour three.
Is a garolite/FR4 bed surface different from PEI? +
Garolite is the de-facto surface for nylon because nylon refuses to stick to PEI. If you plan to print nylon, check that the printer either ships a garolite plate or accepts a swap-in one. Otherwise it is an extra £30 and often an extra week's wait.
