On the contrary, the folding spool is designed so that when it is first printed, the size of the print is small. But once you start folding to complete the print, it becomes smaller and more sturdy. Existing folding structures were designed so that when it first starts printing, at an unfolded state, the size of the print is large. When the spool is assembled after the print, the size will be the same as a normal spool and you would be able to fill in enough filaments.ģ. ![]() The spool is designed to be printed on a 3D printer with a build size of 150mm in width and 150mm in depth. I have designed the structure of this spool to be foldable, by applying my folding technology. This spool can be printed on very small 3D printers. Most mold production spools weigh more than 200g and current 3D printable spools weigh more than 230g.Ģ. The spool I have designed is very light, so it consumes less filament to print. The following are the feature of this design:ġ. Therefore, I have designed a spool that is easier to print and eco-friendly. However, the spool designs that are currently available are heavier than conventional spools and are very difficult to print on a small 3D printer. Since the spool is not given, you would have to print your own spool to use these filaments. ![]() Perhaps because of such criticism, there is a current trend among shops where they sell the filament without the spool. And they particularly criticize the spool(an item that helps supply the filament into the 3D printer) for not being recyclable which results in producing plastic waste. People criticize 3D printing for not being environmentally friendly. ![]()
