Heated bed doesn't seem to be staying on
I have only printed about a dozen things. I have been having problems in the last couple of days with things not staying stuck to the bed. I have cleaned it after every print. i have noticed that on the thing that I was just printing was about 65% done when the pieces i was printing started to move around ( come of the bed ). when I put my hand on the printer bed it was cold. When I had started the print the bed was at 60 degree celsius. Any thoughts on what could be happening or things for me to check.

Are you attempting to print on the textured powder-coated PEI spring steel sheet or the smooth PEI spring steel sheet?
If the bed is shutting off prematurely, log into the Prusa estore and contact support via online chat.

Did you buy a preassmbled printer or kit?
What temperature values shows your display when printing?
The current/ required temperatures shown on display should be almost the same +- 1-2 degrees.
For PLA the bed temperature during the whole print time should not decrease under about 60°C.

Also note the LED on the heatbed lights when it is receiving power.
If the light stays lit and the bed is cold - the bed has a problem.
If the light is off when the controller says it should be on - your problem is further up the line.
