The Airpath gives the strand a repeatable, controlled cooling path so it reaches the ideal temperature before it hits the Spooler, delivering clean, consistent winding and stable diameter. A front-panel speed control with a built-in readout lets you record and repeat the airflow that works for each material. Engineered for labs and production benches alike, it runs quietly (about 50 dB at max) and packs a bench-friendly footprint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eForced-convection cooling\u003c\/strong\u003e — six high-velocity fans rapidly pull heat from freshly extruded filament for stable diameter and higher line speeds.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable fan-speed control\u003c\/strong\u003e — front-panel knob with digital power\/speed readout for repeatable setups.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMagnetic filament guides\u003c\/strong\u003e — top-mounted guide magnets keep filament centered as it traverses the cooling path.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuiet, lab-friendly operation\u003c\/strong\u003e — approximately 50 dB at max speed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUniversal power input\u003c\/strong\u003e — 110\/220 VAC, 50\/60 Hz.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompact footprint\u003c\/strong\u003e — 24 × 7.25 × 3.5 in and about 9 lb; fits neatly between your extruder and spooler.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePart of the Filabot Modular Ecosystem\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery Filabot machine is a building block.
