Composite Extruder

MakerBot Composite Extruder

The MakerBot Composite Extruder brings all the benefits of 3D printing PA-CF (carbon fibre reinforced nylon) parts on MakerBot Method 3D printers. Ideal for 3D printing structures and spare parts.

The carbon fibre reinforced nylon (PA-CF) is optimised for high strength, stiffness and heat resistance, making it ideal for structural applications and replacement of metal parts:

• Excellent strength-to-weight ratio (110 MPa TS)
• Exceptional stiffness (tensile modulus – 7600 MPa)
• High thermal resistance under load (184°C HDT)

The unique feature set of the MakerBot Method delivers carbon fibre parts with superior dimensional accuracy and structural strength:

• Heated chamber ensures parts that are strong and precise
• Exceptional finishing surface
• 3D printing the most complex geometries
• The closed filament storage helps keep the material dry, resulting in better 3D printing quality and reliability. Pre 3D drying function on the reel allows recovery of moisture-laden filaments
