Filabot Full Recycling Setup

The Filabot Full Recycling Setup is a complete, professional-scale system for converting plastic waste, failed prints, and polymer feedstock into finished 3D printing filament.

Designed for universities, research labs, manufacturers, material developers, and advanced additive manufacturing programs, this system provides the core equipment needed to establish an in-house filament recycling and material development capability.

Rather than purchasing individual machines and building a process around them, the Full Recycling Setup provides an integrated workflow for size reduction, material preparation, extrusion, cooling, and spooling.

Build an In-House Material Processing Capability

The system enables teams to:

• Reprocess failed prints and compatible plastic waste

• Produce filament from virgin or recycled polymer feedstock

• Develop and test custom material formulations

• Evaluate recycled materials and additives

• Reduce dependence on commercially available filament

• Support research into circular manufacturing and polymer processing

• Produce filament internally for prototyping, testing, and production

The Full Recycling Setup is available with either the Filabot EX3 or higher-capacity Filabot EX6, allowing the system to be configured around your processing requirements.

Complete Processing Workflow

Reclaim → Prepare → Extrude → Cool → Spool → Print

Each component performs a dedicated step in the recycling and filament-production process, creating a flexible platform that can support both routine material processing and advanced R&D.

Power Requirements

The Full Recycling Setup is available for 100–120 VAC or 200–240 VAC, 50/60 Hz, single-phase power, depending on the selected equipment configuration.

Each machine is powered independently, so multiple properly rated outlets or branch circuits may be required.

EX3 Full Recycling Setup

• Input Voltage: 100–120 VAC or 220–240 VAC, single phase

• Approximate Maximum Connected Load: 3,000 W

• Calculated Maximum Current: Approximately 26 A at 115 VAC or 13 A at 230 VAC

EX6 Full Recycling Setup

• Input Voltage: 110–120 VAC or 220–240 VAC, single phase

• Approximate Maximum Connected Load: 3,800 W

• Calculated Maximum Current: Approximately 33 A at 115 VAC or 16.5 A at 230 VAC

Individual Equipment Loads

The totals above represent the approximate maximum connected load if all equipment is operating simultaneously. Actual power consumption will vary based on machine settings and operating conditions.

For facility planning, confirm the electrical requirements of the selected configuration before installation.

A Platform for Recycling and Material Development

The Full Recycling Setup is more than a collection of machines. It provides a complete polymer-processing platform that allows organizations to control how materials are prepared, modified, recycled, and converted into filament.

For organizations investing in additive manufacturing, materials research, sustainability initiatives, or circular manufacturing, it creates a dedicated internal capability that can be used across many projects, materials, and applications.
