2. Recyclebot - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recyclebot

   A recyclebot (or RecycleBot) is an open-source hardware device for converting waste plastic into filament for open-source 3D printers like the RepRap. [1] Making DIY 3D printer filament at home is both less costly and better for the environment than purchasing conventional 3D printer filament.

3. Lyman filament extruder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyman_filament_extruder

   The use of DIY filament extruders like the Lyman can significantly reduce the cost of printing with 3-D printers. [2] The Lyman filament extruder was designed to handle pellets, but can also be used to make filament from other sources of plastic such as post-consumer waste like other RecycleBots. Producing plastic filament from recycled plastic ...

4. 3D printing filament - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_printing_filament

   3D printing filament is the thermoplastic feedstock for fused deposition modeling 3D printers. There are many types of filament available with different properties. [1] Filament comes in a range of diameters, most commonly 1.75 mm and 2.85 mm, [2] with the latter often being confused with the less common 3 mm. [3] Filament consists of one ...

   In addition, several RecycleBots have been designed and fabricated to convert waste plastic, such as shampoo containers and milk jugs, into inexpensive RepRap filament. [18] There is some evidence that using this approach of distributed recycling is better for the environment [ 19 ] [ 20 ] [ 21 ] and can be useful for creating " fair trade ...
