Filament Swatches

Ultra-Fast Filament Swatches (Niimbot 50x30 Edition)

These filament swatches are optimized for maximum efficiency. No unnecessary bevels or variable thicknesses – simply a flat, sturdy card that prints in just 13 minutes.

The highlight is the slightly oversized recess for Niimbot labels (50x30 mm). Thanks to the small buffer, the label can be applied stress-free and perfectly straight, without catching on the edges or bubbling
 

Why this design?
 

Speed: Optimized for quick printing (approx 13 min per card)
Simplicity: Consistent thickness for a clean, uniform stacked feel
Niimbot-Ready: The recess is minimally larger than 50x30 mm, so the label fits perfectly, even if the printer has minimal tolerances
Material Test: Since the card has a uniform thickness, it is ideal for evaluating the true color and surface texture of the filament
 

Print Settings
Print time: ~13 minutes (depending on printer and speed settings)
Layer height: 0.2 mm (standard) is perfectly sufficient
Walls: 2 wall lines are ideal
Infill: 10-15% (Grid/Rectilinear) for a solid feel with low material consumption

Note on Fit:
