Shilament is OSE's brand of recycled, mixed material 3D filament obtained from post-consumer waste.
( User:Eric here, what is meant by mixed material, an intentional mix/composite, or the mix of non sorted recycling? The latter seems impractical, if not full on wasteful in my opinion. )
Accuracy
- Recommended is 0.8 and larger nozzles for fast printing of large objects. The worst case accuracy For 3 mm filament is such that layer thickness can vary by 20% if 20% filament width tolerance is used in the absence of a filament width sensor. This is such that the outer surface can have up to 160 micron (<1/5 mm) naccuracy. For bulk objects, such as 2x4 lumber, that means overall one-millionty deviation, which is still orders of magnitude better than commercial lumber.
If a.filament width sensor is utilized,.this .eans that prints are perfect regardless of filement tolerances.
