VERIFY YOUR SPOOL

â the most precise quality control system on the market

 

Filament for 3D printers is manufactured by the method of free extrusion, which is one of the most difficult processing techniques by extrusion, due to the particularly large impact of process parameters on product dimensions and material homogenization.

During the production each 1mm of Spectrum Filament is being continuously measured in 2 axis with ±0.8µm accuracy, what allows to obtain a high-quality final product. As a proof of this, Spectrum Filaments has introduced, as one of the few manufacturers in the world, the possibility of presenting online, individually for each manufactured spool:

·the course of diameter on the entire length of the spool,

·

·mean diameter,

·

·ovality,

·

·standard deviation.

·

Precise survey guarantees that Spectrum Filaments products meet rigorous market requirements.
