Reinforced Filament Reinforced filament is a composite material infused with fibers like carbon, glass, or Kevlar, enhancing strength, stiffness, and durability. It provides high strength-to-weight ratios, impact resistance, and thermal stability. Reinforced filaments are ideal for functional parts, structural components, and load-bearing applications. They require wear-resistant nozzles (hardened steel or ruby) due to abrasiveness. Proper print settings, including temperature, speed, and retraction, ensure optimal layer adhesion and mechanical properties. Reinforced filaments are widely used in aerospace, automotive, and engineering applications. |
