WASP Manual Feeding Extruder
The Manual Feeding extruder is designed for printing with rapid-setting cement and geopolymers, thanks to its stainless-steel funnel body and self-cleaning system.
Automated Production System (APS)
Lastly, the Automated Production System (APS) enables the printing of ceramic artifacts in series, automatically replacing the used printing plate with a new one. The used buildplate is then independently transported to a conveyor belt waiting to be picked up.
Continuous Feeding System (CFS)
The Continuous Feeding System (CFS) allows you to constantly add new material to the printer, overcoming the limited capacity of the tank while mechanically degassing the material without a vacuum pump.

FAQ
- WASP 2040 Clay is ideal for printing compact and precise parts, representing an excellent affordable entry-level choice for ceramic 3D printing.
- WASP 40100 LDM is suitable for medium/large size prints, for designers and architectural studios.
- WASP 40100 Production is suitable for series printing and industrial production.
The WASP 40100 Production version is optimized for series printing and consists of three key components:
- WASP 40100 LDM: 3D printer designed for fluid-dense materials.
- Continuous Feeding System: continuous feeding system that constantly mixes the clay via a screw that allows you to print 24/7.
- Automated Production System: conveyor belt that moves parts along the production line. This component facilitates the continuous flow of printed products.
No, ceramic printing material is not only specific to the 3D printer. Rather, it is the same material traditionally used in manual applications such as the potter’s wheel or other ceramic processing techniques. Ceramic 3D printing uses conventional ceramic materials adapted to the printing process.
This makes it possible to take advantage of the unique properties of ceramic materials in the production of complex and intricate objects through 3D printing technology.
Aggregates added to 3D printing slurries can be useful for modifying their properties and facilitating the printing process. Here is some specific information about two commonly used types of aggregates:
CHAMOTTE:
- Chamotte, also called grog, is a powder obtained by grinding ceramic materials after firing.
- It can be added to clay mixtures to modify their properties.
- It is particularly recommended for large prints to avoid collapse and reduce warping during firing.
PAPER CLAY:
- The name “Paper Clay” is used for clay-based slurries to which cellulose fibers, such as paper, are added.
- The addition of cellulose fibers can help during printing to reduce the collapse of structures and aid the drying process.
- During firing, the cellulose fibers burn, leaving porosity in the finished piece.
MAXIMUM AGGREGATE SIZES: The maximum aggregate sizes that can be added to slurries depend on the type of extruder used in your LDM 3D printer:
- LDM Extruder (version 3.0 and earlier): The maximum aggregate size should be a maximum diameter of 0.2 mm.
- LDM XL Extruder (version 3.0 and earlier): For this extruder, the maximum aggregate size should have a maximum diameter of 0.5 mm.
Higher than stated particle size values could damage the extruder and cause nozzle clogging during printing.
In general, make sure that the press slurry is smooth and free of debris or hard parts that could impair the flow inside the extruder or on the nozzle. By experimenting with small amounts of aggregates and closely monitoring the printing process, you can determine how to achieve the desired results with your printer.
