1.2 MAIN ADVANTAGES OF DUAL EXTRUSION

We consider Dual Extrusion as the next frontier in 3D Printing. While the possibilities are endless we like to divide them in 3 categories:
- SOLUBLE SUPPORT MATERIAL: 3D Print soluble support structures that can be dissolved easily and quickly. No more geometry limits and support structure removal scars.
- DUAL NOZZLE SIZE: Speed up 3D Printing by combining two different nozzles: a more precise one for the outer-inner surfaces and a larger one for stronger infill and superfast 3D prints.
- DUAL COLOUR/MATERIAL: Combine materials inside the same part: hard core and soft shell is a great example of this.
