“All-in-All, the extruder is a cost-saving alternative for our 3D printing needs, as it cuts out expensive purchases and deliveries of ready-made filament.”

Svein A. Hjelmtveit

Laboratory Manager, Fieldmade

“Navigating the menu was intuitive, and the pre-set list is perfect for the first steps of processing.”

Pere Castell

Nanotechnology Manager, Aitiip 3D

“The machine is perfectly suitable for small batch extrusion in short time-frames, and allows you to immediately proceed with material testing and analysis.”

Dr. Mathias Czasny

Materials Scientist, TU Berlin

“As of this moment, we are extruding a new type of material weekly.”

Martin Olofsson

Laboratory Engineer, Research Institutes of Sweden

“The Composer 450 is ideal for proceeding with immediate testing and analysis as it requires the minimum amount of input material, unlike the other extruders which require a minimum input of one kilogram.”

Corinne van Noordenne

Researcher and Lecturer, NHL Stenden

“It is a lot more flexible than our big extruder. Quick to use and doesn’t need lots of material. This device allows us to conduct most tests as part of research projects with other companies.”

Kurt van Houtte

Coordinator Fablab, Ghent University
