Zusammenfassung:	An apparatus, system and method for limiting build plate expansion in a 3D print environment. The apparatus, system and method may include a decoupling leveler associated with mounts for a build plate in the print environment; and a plurality of adjustments passing substantially through and mounted within the decoupling leveler. The leveler may be decoupled from the mounts during heating and cooling of the print environment, and recoupled via a positional clamped by the plurality of adjustments during printing on the build plate.
