EXPERIMENTAL EXTRUDER GEN 2 FOR METHOD
Print more abrasive 3rd-party composites and polymers for longer thanks to upgraded hardened-steel components with the NEW LABS Experimental Extruder GEN 2.
With the number of third-party composites available on the market today, the experimental extruder has been optimized to allow you to print with some of the most abrasive materials available – like Carbon Fiber and ESD composites with confidence.
Apart from unlimited open-materials experimentation, you can also do a quick swab with a model extruder for highly repeatable, dimensionally accurate parts with MakerBot Materials.
