These filaments are then cooled, typically using air or water, to solidify the material. The filaments can be wound onto spools for further use or processed into products such as fibers, 3D printing materials, window profiles, or monofilaments. Filament extrusion allows for a high degree of control over the diameter and properties of the filaments. To optimize this process to specific applications, various compounds can be incorporated. Single layer as well as multilayer filament extrusion is possible.
