"PullStruder": how to make 3D printer filament from recycled plastic bottles

I am starting a hackaday project to give detailed explainations on "how to do it". Please refer first to this page !
hackaday.io/project/185196-pu...
Please do not hesitate to "like" both this video and the project on hackaday !
I saw on youtube a few videos of guys recycling plastic PET bottles into 3D printer filament spool.
Here are some links :
• How to Make free & eas... a full serie of videos quite long to wait week after week ...
• #2 Bottle Cutter - Det...
Finally I tried to make my own "pullstruder".
You will need :
- to put some pressure into a PET bottle (2 bar). This is optionnal
- hot gun the bottle to remove all the "carvings" and get an "almost cylinder" : 0:20
- cut the bottle into a ribbon : 1:35 . Plans for a really good "roller cutter" are here : davehakkens.nl/community/foru...
- you can make "cheaper" one but not as good with a simple cutter blade
- build an extruder. For this first prototype, I simply drilled a cylinder of aluminium à 1.75mm diameter. - Then I made a conical shape from 1.75mm to 10mm. So that the filament can enter the hotend and is progressively curved to 1.75mm.
to produce heat I simply used a cheap chineese PID controler equiped with a thermocouple sensor
s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_AX9....
- the PID is controlling a ceramic band heater :s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_A9N....
Here is how to wire PID and band heater. don't forget that it is powerd by MAINS voltage. This could be letal ... you will be warned !
The detailed wirings : • FILAMENT EXTRUDER PART...
Then I designed a winder using an old wiper motor. You will need really a lot of torque to pull the ribbon. A strong and well reducted motor is a MUST...
3D printed parts are on thingiverse : www.thingiverse.com/thing:496...
Finally I successfully "pullstruded" my first filament. One bottle produces 6m of PET filament. 3:12
And I tried to print with this filament the gear to adapt the wiper motor to this winder !
The temperature to print must be high enough. After several failures I got a working set point at 270°C
The printed part adheres very well to the bed at PETG temperature (90°C).
Apart for the filament temperature, the settings are the same as regular PETG.
If you want to join filaments to increase the "bottle size" ! • 3d printer filament jo...
Or better, use a filament run out sensor and change it as sson as it is finished. • prusa i3 mk2s filament...
Now for the width of the ribbon... Here is what I did :
considering that a 1.75mm filament as a section of 2.4mm square
considering that my bottle has a thickness of 0.25mm, then the width should be 2.4/.25 = 9.6mm
I tuned my roller cutter to get (almost) this width, and you can see the result in this video !
With a hole of 1.75mm the filament when pulled has a kind of oval shape and U shape... It is 2mm wide by 1.5mm. It turns out that 2mm is not a problem for my Prusa Mk2S :-)
And I believe that the section is close enough to 2.4mm^2 as the printed result is not that bad.
Still some improvement to be done but for a first attempt I am quite satisfied !
A few months after, I have printed a lot of bottles. And it works pretty well.
You will see on thingiverse that drying your filament before printing can improve a lot the quality of the print. PET is very sensitive to moisture and can absorb water in any room and very fast. Dry your filament into a kitchen oven at 65°C during 1 or 2 hours minimum. Then use your filement as soon as possible

This pet material is more rigid than pla, abs and even petg. It has however a tendency to less absorb chocks It is thus more brittle than petg You are right buying filament is not that expensive. But I can say that making your own at no cost is really exciting ! Have a look at the thingiverse page into the description. There is a batman's batarang printed at a much better quality than the gear into the video. I just changed the temperature to 270° it makes a huge difference.

A vrai dire je n'ai pas mesuré ! Le moteur d'essuie-glace a deux vitesses, j'utilise la vitesse lente et j'alimente le moteur en 5V au lieu de 12... Une vitesse trop rapide ne laisse pas assez de temps au filament pour se rétracter. Une vitesse trop lente peut ramolir le filament qui peut casser. Ceci dit le vitesse n'est pas critique. Ce qui l'est c'est le diamètre du trou (1.5mm) et la température 200-210 °C

Milk bottles are HDPE / LDPE which is very different plastic from the PET. Milk bottles when heated up are better kneaded and press formed into shapes then CNC down into whatever you want or heated up pressurised using a hopper and Archimedes screw to injection mould. The 3D print method relys on quick cooling of the material I feel like hdpe and ldpe retain heat which can cause warping and sagging of layers

So start with a 1.5mm hole, then a little shorter 2mm...etc, up to 10mm at the very end. This approximates the conical shape. You can then use a small conical grinder bit on a rotary tool to improve the conical shape.

Then adapt the tip of the ribbon into the adapter on the roll. When température gets 195°C start the roll.

Why did you put air into the bottle? Whats the purpose for that?!

@freedom2000 2 жыл бұрын

To put pressure and then to hot gun the bottle in order to remove the "carvings"

@@freedom2000 Hi what happens when you leave the carvings?

@freedom2000 2 жыл бұрын

@@DarthTrollz well i don't know exactly. But the bottle getting less flat, the thermoforming process is for sure less efficient. You could have small "bumps" at the location of the carvings and this could induce a lack of consistency into the section of the filament.

How did you make the extruder part? It would be cool if you post a video about it.

The moment someone has a proprietary product that I can fill 10kg of shredded cleaned PET into the hopper and come back the next morning to a bigass roll of filament, I'd pay like 15k for that. I want to fucking 3D print a boat! Get your act together guys, a 15ft shitty wooden fishing boat still costs 20 fucking grand where I live. Chop chop

I was thinking the same thing - even further --> bottles one end --> filament at the other end. It shouldn't be that difficult. But how do you 3D print an entire boat ? In sections ?

@pablowall 2 жыл бұрын

@@RP4UXO yeah I imagine it would have to either be done in sections or you'd have to have the printer on rails so it could do the entire boat in 1
