M2 Materials ABS Filament 56ci Stratasys Dimension 1200es/Dimension Elite/Fortus 250mc, Black

Not very good quality or strengthfor the price

First of all, I usually never write reviews. But this material surprised me so much that I just had to.I was very skeptical at first, I never heard of this brand before and always use Stratasys material. There weren't many reviews and the low price seemed kinda sketchy... But then I thought, I should just buy a spool and give it a try.I really like the design of the box. I also like the cardboard spool, I think it looks very cool.I unpacked the spool and followed the instructions on the back of the box. They were very clear and easy to follow. Opened up the cartridge, exchanged the chip, put in the spool, closed the cartridge and voila - you are good to go, it only takes like two minutes and it's very easy to do. The spool fits perfectly into the cartridge. Then, I inserted the cartridge with the M2 Material spool and loaded the material. The printer had no issues of recognizing the spool and displayed 100%.I started a print just as I normally would and the result was really good. I was surprised. It looks just like the prints with Stratasys material. For comparison I printed the exact same parts using Stratasys material again. Honestly, the parts look completely identical, you can't distinguish them at all. I asked a couple of my co-workers and none of them could see the difference at all. We also did a bunch of tests with the prints to see if the M2 Material is likelier to break or more fragile or anything. Our conclusion is that there is also no difference in terms of performance.The prints have the same quality in terms of aesthetics and performance but for so much less money. You save 60% of material cost using this material.For the future, we will use this material. It's the lowest price you'll find on the market and the quality is really good.

I must say that this is the best 3rd party filament I have ever used. To save on operating costs, the shop that I work at use 3rd party filament and it produces subpar results. We see consistent underextrusion with the other filament and upon checking with a caliper, we see that the filament dimensions aren't very consistent. With this one, the filament dimension variation is undetectable with the calipers I have and the print quality shows. I no longer get underextrusion and layers are very smooth. Do yourself a favor and give this brand a try before wasting precious hours for a failed print.

Excelente articulo y muy buena calidad

This is an excellent option for 3D printer material. It is more flexible and tends to crack less that the OEM material and is less than half the price. It also seems to separate from the break away support material easier making removing parts much easier and cleaner.
