Comparative chart between SMARTFIL ABS MDT and SMARTFIL PETG MDT

They are filaments for 3D printing designed to be detected by any type of magnetic detector, even when the material is present in very small particles. Unlike the existing filaments in the market reinforced with ferromagnetic powders, ABS MDT and PETG MDT are detectable by all metal detectors available on the market, both those with permanent magnet and the most modern with balanced coils. Its composition does not require the use of steel fibers or metal powders, and does not contain carbon, graphite and carbon black fibers, so they do not release dusts or particles during printing that are difficult to identify and therefore are capable to disperse in the work atmosphere and to contaminate the process or finished products.

What material to choose?

The property of being detected magnetically, makes them especially suitable for the food industry, where the absence of contaminants of any origin is essential. It is also indicated for the manufacture of sensors, smart packaging, etc. This filament has a high dimensional stability. Resistant to moisture, fungus and mold.

We recommend cleaning the extruder with SMARTFIL CLEAN after printing with these materials.
