Everyone knows that choosing the right filament for #3Dprinting is often a difficult task ⚙️
Sometimes one of the simplest and most efficient solutions can be to make the filament yourself with a domestic extruder.

#DiscoverFelfilSystem
Knowing in real time the exact parameters of the #extrusion in progress helps getting a good filament.
Temperature, RPM and much more: everything can be read on Felfil Evo's display. The interface is as intuitive as possible, as is the extrusion 👌
We partnered with @MaCh_3D to test the #3Dprinting performances of a filament extruded from #plastic scraps, confirming that, if limited to a few cycles, the recycled material guarantees proper performances⚙️

#DiscoverFelfilSystem
We know that monitoring extrusion in real time is really useful.
That's why Felfil Spooler's display will tell you exactly what's most important: extrusion speed and filament diameter, so you can adjust accordingly and get the best results.

The diameter sensor mounted on #FelfilSpooler ensures that the extruded filament remains consistent ⚙️
Thanks to its high accuracy - 10 micron - it automatically calibrates the strenght of the puller wheels to guarantee the best extrusion 👌
#3DPrinting
Turning #plastic scraps into new filament is a great way to reduce waste ♻️
However, not all plastics are recyclable at home: let's see which of the most common plastic materials are suitable for extrusion and how they behave 👇

#DiscoverFelfilSystem#3DPrinting
One of the key components is the extrusion screw ⚙️ Designed to transform the plastic scraps into a brand new filament, it is made ad-hoc to ensure efficient extrusion.
✅ 14mm
✅ K100 steel.
Made to last and to give the best precision👌
#DiscoverFelfilSystem ⚙️
Basic extrusion speed is about 1.15 metres per minute, but it depends on the material you are using.
For many materials it's way faster than this: so, in a few hours you have a full filament spool and you are ready to print 👌
#3Dprinting
Since we designed it, #FelfilSystem has been used in a wide range of research projects: in fact, thanks to its architecture, it is particularly suitable to test various materials and innovative polymers ⚙️
