The Filabot Original is designed and engineered to bring industrial filament production quality right to your desktop. In fact, you’ll enjoy savings of up to 90% over commercially purchased filament when you produce your own filament using inexpensive, raw plastic pellets. Save even more by turning failed prints and household waste plastics into filament. Create your own custom filaments with unlimited physical properties. Built, inspected, and tested by our technicians at our Vermont facility in the United States.
**Voltage Note – be sure to select the 110VAC (Domestic) or 220VAC (International) specific to the country that you are going to be using the extruder system in. There is no operational difference between the 110VAC or 220VAC.**
