The Anisoprint Composer A4 is a desktop carbon fiber 3D printer made by Anisoprint, a Luxembourg-based manufacturer of continuous fiber 3D printing systems.
This Composer A4 is able to 3D print lightweight, complex shape composite material parts with superior mechanical properties for end-use production.
3D printing continuous carbon fiber
The Composer A4 uses Composite Fiber Co-extrusion (CFC) technology. Anisoprints patented technology for extruding matrix and continuous fiber through one extruder offers the most flexibility for composite manufacturing.
This allows 3D printed parts to boast high strength and resistance, all while being lightweight. The manufacturer boasts that CFC technology makes the material 20 times stronger than simple plastic, 7 times stronger than plastic compounds, and 4 times lighter than titanium.
The machine combines a unique extruder composition, consisting of two thermoplastic filament feeders and a third feeder for composite fibers. Used in combination, they can print parts from PLA, PETG, ABS, Nylon, and PC that are reinforced with composite carbon fibers (CCF) or composite basalt fiber (CBF).
