Facilan™ Ortho Filament

1 of 4 products in this brand
Facilan™ Ortho Filament was developed in conjunction with orthotics and insoles researchers, manufacturers and patients to be high-performance material for orthotics, shoe soles and insoles. It is the world's first material designed specifically for orthotics. Unique hot melt properties make Ortho ideally suited for adhesion to leather and textiles. Facilan™ Ortho is based on compostable raw material according to EN 13432.

Additional info

For many 3D printers, Ortho will print best at approximately 140°C with a bed temperature of 38°C and a speed of 30 mm/s. In designs with significant overhangs and bridges, best results are obtained with fans at 100%. To get the best results while printing we advise you to keep the 3D printer in a room where there is hardly any dra􀅜 and/or temperature fluctuations. Keep the 3D printer out of direct sunlight. When the 3D printer is not being used it is important to keep the 3D4Makers Facilan™ Ortho filament in a bag and stored in a cool, dry and dark place until it is used again.
