Benefits of Pellet Extrusion

  • Affordable Feedstocks

    Pellet extrusion 3D printing enables the use of affordable feedstocks, often at 10X reduction in cost compared to filament.

  • Faster Print Times

    High deposition rates ranging from 1lb – 30lbs per hour with pellet extrusion 3D printing means faster print times, enabling large parts to be printed in days instead of weeks.

  • More Material Options

    Pellet extrusion 3D printing opens up a world of material options, with hundreds of formulations available ranging from low durometer (soft) to high performance and highly filled resins such as carbon fiber and glass fiber.
