Hi,

I work as a continuous improvement engineer and I’ve been discussing getting a 3D Printer for our shop here. Main applications would be:

  • Prototyping tools, jigs, parts, etc
  • Small custom parts for use on equipment

The main thing I’m struggling with is there’s so much technology and brands now! I decided to reach out for more insight. The main requirements are essentially:

  • Food safe plastic OR Metal Detectable plastic (plastic with metal impregnated)

I would appreciate any help or direction!

    There are metal-detectable filaments you can use, which may help (although I’m not sure if they’re food safe; presumably the suppliers will respond to business inquiries though!)
