In the field of 3D printing, filament management has always been a critical factor affecting the printing experience. As an industry innovator, SUNLU is committed to providing users with more efficient and eco-friendly solutions. Today, we are proud to introduce the third-generation reusable spool—a durable, reusable, and environmentally friendly solution! Building on SUNLU's high-quality standards, this product achieves comprehensive upgrades in eco-friendliness, durability, and ease of use, addressing the shortcomings of traditional spools while enhancing the 3D printing experience.
Core Upgrades: 7 Key Highlights, A Comprehensive Leap Forward
1. Reusable, Detachable, and Eco-Friendly
The third-generation reusable spool features a reusable and detachable structure made from high-strength materials. The key to its eco-friendliness lies in its ability to be reused multiple times and its compatibility with refill spools. At the same time, using refill spools can minimize the production of new spools, further decreasing plastic waste. This approach aligns with reducing, reusing, and recycling principles, contributing to a more sustainable environment.
2. Upgraded Size, Enhanced Compatibility
The size of the spool has been optimized to φ200mm × φ55mm, ensuring perfect compatibility with AMS/AMS Lite and also supporting the increasingly popular spool-free filaments. Whether you use PLA, ABS, PETG, ASA or any other functional filaments, this spool offers a flexible solution, ensuring smoother operation on these devices and reducing issues like jamming or retraction failures, thereby providing a more stable printing experience.
3. Innovative Cable Tie Design for Easier Filament Switching
A unique structural design allows users to secure unused filament with cable ties, enabling easy removal from the spool and seamless switching between different filament types for greater operational flexibility.
4. Multi-Hole Design for Better Filament Drying
The spool features a multi-hole design that optimizes heat conduction, ensuring more thorough filament drying, reducing drying time, and improving printing efficiency.
5. Weight Scale for Clear Filament Tracking
The spool is equipped with a weight scale so that users can easily check the remaining filament based on the consumption data from slicing software, avoiding printing failures or waste.
6. Upgraded Label with Clear Printing Parameters
The label clearly displays recommended printing temperatures and platform setting temperatures, allowing users to quickly adjust parameters for different printing speeds according to different temperatures, improving print quality and reducing trial-and-error waste.
7. Temperature Resistance Reminder to Prevent Spool Deformation
The label includes a temperature resistance reminder, alerting users to avoid excessive heat that could deform the spool, thereby extending its lifespan.
Comparison with Traditional Cardboard Spools: A Clear Winner
1. Cardboard Spools Absorb Moisture, Affecting Print Quality
Cardboard spools are prone to moisture absorption, which can soften and deform them, negatively impacting print quality. The third-generation spool uses waterproof materials, completely eliminating this issue.
2. Cardboard Spools Have High Friction, Causing AMS Jams
Cardboard spools generate higher friction in AMS systems, leading to feeding and retraction issues. The third-generation spool features an optimized surface design with reduced friction for smoother operation.
3. Cardboard Spools Are Fragile and Easily Damaged
Cardboard spools are assembled with adhesive, making them low in strength and susceptible to deformation or even falling apart during shipping. The third-generation spool is robust, pressure-resistant, and drop-proof, making it ideal for long-distance transportation.
Conclusion: Innovative Design, Seamless Output
SUNLU's third-generation reusable spool not only addresses the pain points of traditional cardboard spools but also achieves breakthroughs in eco-friendliness, durability, and ease of use. From its optimized design for the AMS/AMS Lite to innovative features like multi-hole drying and weight scales, every detail reflects SUNLU's deep understanding of user needs and relentless pursuit of product excellence.
