Will embedding magnets into prints cause magnetising problems with the steel sheet?

Hi!

I started a batch of prints where I embed strong neodymium magnets into the parts.

Now I wonder, will this permanently magnetize the steel sheet - and cause calibration problems?

Or can this be neglected, because the steel sheet is held in place by magnets as well?

Anyone with good or bad experiences about this?

Best,

LR

I  use loads of magnets and haven't noticed a problem yet!

the heatbed is full of magnets and we turn the build plate over from time to time, 

I don't see the magnets causing issues....   

But others experiences may differ
