@MindRealm - he's asking about extruding filament from pellets, not printing.

The list would start with a a bare metal extruder/hot end (no insulator in the filament path), a well insulated hot end (i.e. fiberglass/silicone wrapped) to keep it from cooling too much from the ambient air, good electrical/fire protection and the use of personal protective equipment as well. 450° C is almost 850° F...

There is a business behind my company that manufactures optical fiber cable, and they use some high-temp, tight-spec extruders there in up to 3" diameters!

   I am planning to buy Filastruder. My requirement is to make PEEK filament

As per the product details of the site, they say some Users have successfully extruded PEEK(See the attached image), but also the details say, the temperature range is room temperature to 260 Celsius.


But PEEK requires around 450 degrees,
Is it possible to Extrude PEEK?
If so, would I have to make any modifications??
Thanks
