Crazy! I wasn't expecting it to just go on top of the printer like that! And to see it printing the housing for another one is just awesome. You've basically gone infinite, assuming you can find bottles in the garbage. :)
Thank you so much for posting this, I've been struggling with trying to melt the filament rolls together, I think this beats the repet solution by a longshot. Connecting the strips is way more efficient, I'll try this for sure. I think instead of using a separate extruder assemly, with the right board, one can flash a firmware with 2 extruders and do a gcode wizard and slicer settings to to do this. Another ideam I might experiment with is making a die to cut the strips and punch the holes with one push, it's speed up the process a bunch. Great approach tho, I think this'll work for me. Thanks again!
Holaa, muy interesante!! solo una pregunta, no da ningún problema a la hora de la retracción del material? es decir, cuando retrae el filamento, no supone un problema con el nozzle superior? gracias!
Hola, Ecodecat! Gracias por este video. Quería pedirte sugerencias pues intente reproducir este modelo pero no termina de funcionar con el extrusor de mi Ender 3 V3 KE. Tendrá que ver con la fuerza del extrusor? Si aumento la temperatura del componente de termomoldeado si lo hala perfecto. Pero se rompe la tira de plástico a la mínima retracción 😢. Espero puedas aconsejarme ❤
Hey, thank you for showing us in better detail how you are "sewing" these together. I don't wish to be a party pooper, but would you be willing/able to do a live stream of a longer print? I am not confident with the joins, you seem to have mastered them, but they still make me feel uncomfy... If that makes sense. I am currently in the camp of seeming after they are pultruded 🙂
Hola, la botella utilizada es del mercadona, así que me imagino que sabrás español. Seria bueno para los demás que añadieras donde compraste el cortador de botellas y proceso para montar todo el tinglado. Buena idea de reciclado. Gracias.
Are you printing at 255°? I thought it would need around 270-280. I had cloughs at 260-265 and need to rise it. What about the printer result? PET seems to be a little to brittle in comparison with PLA
I'm making wheel from your previous video can u share your experience how to choose strip width in relation to thickness of a bottle? Also on what settings u print i mean Flow and temperature
In order to make the filament the hole needs to be 1.75mm, so you just grab the nozzle and drill the head, unless you can find a 1.75mm nozzle@@Marc-yh4gf
I've tried your technique that binds to strips together but with no success. It always breaks when trying to go through the nozzle. What am I missing ?😢
Can't you weld/fuse the two end pieces together >after< it becomes usable filament? ...And then deburr/smooth out with a scalpel, Diamond milling heads or simply sandpaper? .....or am I seeing it too simple and don't understand it at all how that works...?
I’m with you. Binding the ribbon together just isn’t gonna work because when pultruding is done right, there’s a lot of tension on that filament leaving the nozzle and it’s not going to fit through. I have a much easier time welding the sections of filament together (using a soldering iron) after pultruding. The only explanation for it working as a ribbon is that the ribbon is so thin (so little material) that it can fit through. So likely the resulting filament isn’t very dense.
@KevinGroninga3D I think you're right. I tried this method with a bottle strip with a thickness of 0.25 mm and it did not work. Maybe with a 0.2 or less it works. I'd love to make it work, I weld the filament like you say but it is an extra step I'd be glad to be rid of
Dude that’s so much more clever than a full separate machine!
Very hard to tune and speed has to be set very low. I would say in most cases, the other way is better.
I am watching from Japan. All your videos are great. I subscribed to your channel when the short video came on.
This is all really well done! And you cracked the strip splicing problem!

Was so inspired by this idea. Even made my version of compact PET machine design on the channel.

Can you also do a how-to/setup video next!
imagine a whole industrial process with that :o
Thanks for the video, still figuring out the joining of two bottles hehe Ill try this one and maybe put it on youtube. Kudos to you.

Hi i'm from Senegal in West Africa, and we have a lot of boutiel in the garbage we reallly need this ? Where we can find this machine?
God this is so fucking cool
THIS IS EPIC!!!

Wow! Increible el invento de poner todo junto. Este verano lo monto 100%. ¿Hay algun mod para montarlo en una ender 3 v2?
my man clean the bottle surface with aceton or any other solvent to get rid of the tag glue, that is one issue that cause the stringing in ur prints
Any chance of thise but for the Ender 3 S1 Pro?

Es para botellas muy delgadas?
La verdad que exelente como se empalmaron las tiras

Hey I'm having trouble with the fillament sticking to itself and ruining the print
I'm making wheel from your previous video can u share your experience how to choose strip width in relation to thickness of a bottle?
Also on what settings u print i mean Flow and temperature
Would your mod also work for a prusa Mk3?
Qual a dimensão do bico voce usa para fazer o filamento de PET?
Yo lo hice y cuando comienza a exteuir se parte el filamento , baje témpera a 110 y aún sigue rompiéndose nse que hacer?
Que valores de impresión usa ventiladores de capa ?
❤❤❤
Hi! Where did you take 1.75 - 3 nozzle?
Soo cool❤❤❤
awesome!!
Hi, it is adaptable to delta printers?
Hi, whats name of the printer?
nozzle dimension?
On another video I saw him using 1.75 mm nozzle
@@cliors200 that's the diameter of the filament, the nozzle diameter is probably more around 0.4 to 0.6 mm
In order to make the filament the hole needs to be 1.75mm, so you just grab the nozzle and drill the head, unless you can find a 1.75mm nozzle@@Marc-yh4gf
I think it's 0.5 mm
Buy whichever one and drill it at 1.75
La parte verde donde se atornilla de que material es?
can you share your bottle cutter?
Lu keren bang👍
Anyone tell me the name of equipment he use so i buy it
Please share the device making tutorial that you posted in the last Instagram post.🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Is there a way to smooth out the prints so i can use them for molds?
Use a resin printer as it doesn’t produce the lines.
@@gaztill8920 I don't want a resin printer
Does anyone have the files to mount it to the Prusa, as he did in this video? As the shop to buy them is down.
No funciona el link de compra
Question: Can you sell me obne of these machines that turn bottles into 3d filaments?

I am facing the same issue with you, can't feed the nozzle after joins strip
al cargar programa a arduino me da error
Compilation error: expected primary-expression before 'const'

How to get
does anyone have the tickness- strip "wide" chart? i can't find it anymore
I'm searching for it like 4 days and i cannot find it anymore ... @allkindofvideosforyou
This is what I have:
Thickness Width
0.15mm 11mm
0.20mm 10mm
0.25mm 9mm
0.30mm 8mm
0.35mm 7mm
0.40mm 6mm
0.45mm 5mm
Спасибо👍 🤝
Здравствуйте! А как обстоят дела с ретрактами и как вы боритесь с попаданием пыли в экструдер? Мне кажется, сто ваш экструдер быстро засорится
