Wood is a high-quality filament; It has a high wood load combined with a variety of pigments to simulate the appearance and the feel of real wood.

Pieces printed with Smartfil Wood have a spectacular result, as they appear to be made with real wood, because this filament is made of 40% of organic matter, such as wood. During the process of printing, the same piece, the colour tone can vary if temperature is changed. 

It is easy to print with the possibility of machining to improve the surface finish.

Characteristics:

• 40% wood.
• Possibility of machining to improve its finish.
• Wood feel.
• Free of deformations.
• Biodegradable and compostable.
• Easy to print.
• Compatible with most printers on the market.
• Manufactured from organic material by Smart Materials 3D with our compounding line.

Applications:

• Pieces that require an aesthetic and feel like wood.
• Prototypes.
• Decor.
• Visual models.
• Educational projects.

Notable printing tips for a correct use

Due to the high amount of wood particles seals may occur on 0.4mm diameter that is why we recommend nozzles with diameter 0.6 or higher.

We recommend to feed the printer without making pronounced turns on Bowden systems this way you will avoid breaking the filament.

We recommend to print with a layer higher than 0.2 mm.

It is important to avoid the filament to heat with the extruder in standby this can produce blocks. 

The finish surface can be changed by increasing the printing temperature.
