Filament Recycler

A filament recycler, such as the GP20, converts plastic waste into high-quality filament. The process involves shredding plastic into granules, which are then dried (optional) and extruded into new filament using specialized machines.

The 3devo solution helps reduce plastic waste by transforming discarded plastic into reusable filament. This process starts with the GP20 shredding plastic waste into flakes. These flakes can then be dried to remove moisture, ensuring high-quality filament production. Finally, the dried flakes are fed into filament makers, which precisely control temperature and extrusion parameters to produce consistent, high-quality filament. By converting plastic waste into valuable resources, the 3devo solution promotes a circular economy, reduces environmental impact, and supports sustainable manufacturing practices.

Yes, the 3devo solution handles various types of plastic waste, including failed prints, outdated prototypes, and other plastic items from different sources.

3devo provides support through in-house material specialists and a customer success team. Customers can test their materials, including MFI (Melt Flow Index) testing, before purchasing to ensure compatibility and optimal performance.

Using a filament recycler like the GP20 Plastic Shredder reduces plastic waste, lowers material costs, and supports sustainable practices. It also allows the production of high-quality, customized filaments that enhance the quality and performance of 3D printing projects.
