Print Bed

Emits the active printer's build volume as Vector3 values read straight from the Print profile. Use it to centre geometry on the bed so every model lands in the middle of the build plate regardless of which machine profile is active.

Node

Interactive preview is available in the interactive reader.

Sockets

center (out)
Vector3. XY centre of the bed at Z=0. For Cartesian machines this is (xMax/2, yMax/2, 0); for centerOrigin machines (most Deltas) it is (0, 0, 0).
size (out)
Vector3. Bed dimensions (xMax, yMax, zMax) in millimetres.

Parameters

The Print Bed node has no editable parameters; its outputs are derived from the Print profile (machineLimits.xMax / yMax / zMax / centerOrigin). Change the machine profile in the Print dock to update all downstream centres at once.
