Anisoprint (Esch-sur-Alzette, Luxembourg), a continuous fiber 3D printing systems and software OEM, is introducing and , a second pair of filaments for desktop Anisoprinting. Developed for use with Composer A4 and A3, PETG is a universal and effective material for composite fiber co-extrusion (CFC). The material is paired with a proprietary profile in slicer library, which the company says guarantees high standard quality and predictable properties. The announcement aligns with Anisoprint’s goal to continuously update the library with new materials and profiles.

According to Artem Naumov, Anisoprint head of materials, Clear PETG and CFC PETG have been intensively tested. Easy to handle, the transparent PETG material is said to be ideal for beginners. It is characterized by good flowing properties for easy printing, — as well as use for co-extrusion — enables printing in very thin layers while adhering to optimized surface quality and geometric accuracy and maintains a natural adhesion to reinforcing fibers.

The filaments feature high mechanical properties such as wide working temperature range (-40°C to +70°C), good durability, resistance to fats and mineral acids, etc. They also offer low absorption rate (eliminating the need to use a drybox if the humidity of the storage facility is low enough) and are fully odorless during printing.

The new material is now available for all users of 3D printers, and is offered as the default basic printing option for novice customers.
