FGF pellet extruders · Complete robot cells
Large-format 3D printing.
Add a pellet extruder to the robot or gantry you already have, or get a complete printing cell with the robot on a fixed base or on a linear track. From 0.5 kg/h up to 80 kg/h with the 3DE 8010, delivered plug and play.
- A special short extruder design for maximum output in a compact build
- Nitrided screw and barrel, optionally bimetallic, for a longer service life with glass- or carbon-fibre-reinforced plastics
- Programmed and tested before delivery

What we do
Extruders, controls and process know-how from one partner
From a single extruder for your own machine to a complete robot cell, and from extruders for pipe coating, cables, profiles and blown film to service on existing lines. You talk directly to the people who design and build it.
Complete robot cells
Robot, extruder, print bed, material handling and control in one cell, with the robot on a fixed base or on a linear track.

Building your own FGF printer? We supply the extruder under your name, with a mounting interface made to your machine.
Read more →Robot and CNC integration
Mounting plates for any robot or cobot, and made to fit any gantry. Speed control and start/stop come from the robot or CNC control.
Read more →Extruders beyond 3D printing
Extruders from Ø 20 to 250 mm for pipe coating, cable extrusion, profile extrusion, blown film and other applications.
Read more →Service and upgrades
Maintenance, new screws and barrels, upgrades and process improvement for existing lines, also for extruders from other manufacturers.
Read more →Materials
We help you select and source materials made for FGF printing, from recycled PETG with glass fibre to carbon-filled PC and custom compounds.
Print files and software
We help make your 3D models printable and advise on choosing slicing software, such as Ai Build or Adaxis, or custom software.
Commissioning and training
On request we install the extruder, commission it on your robot or gantry and train your operators. Material dryers and print beds too.

Four standard sizes of one concept
A short extruder with high output, designed and built to get the most out of the 3D printer.
Projects
From the field
Robot cells on a track and a three-layer pipe coating line, from the first layout to production.
First boat printing line · 2021
Printing boats up to 12 metres long
A complete printing line for boats, printed in two parts: up to 12 m long, 2.3 m wide and 2 m high.

Pipe coating · since 2010
Three-layer pipe coating line for steel pipes
For the three-layer anti-corrosion coating of steel pipes we build the extruders: an HDPE/PP extruder and a co-polymer extruder, with screen changers, melt piping and flat dies. The layers from the dies are wrapped around the rotating pipe.
