Single-Screw Extruders: $161 No-Motor Unit vs $1,567 INTSUPERMAI 110V Filament Machine

Two single-screw extruders go head-to-head: a $161 no-motor unit for builders who have a drive and a $1,567 INTSUPERMAI machine with temp/speed control and a 6-month warranty. Find out which one matches your filament setup.

Last updated Aug 17, 2026

Starting a filament extrusion line comes down to one practical question: how much of the machine are you willing to put together yourself? A single-screw extruder melts and pushes plastic, but the options here take different paths. The 3D Filament Single Screw Extruder is offered at USD 161.39, while the INTSUPERMAI 110V Filament Single-Screw Extruder is listed at USD 1,567.50. Both are 110V units in the plastics rubber processing machinery category, and both are meant for filament-type extrusion. The price spread is wide enough that your choice should hinge on whether you already own part of the drive system.

Quick verdict

Choose the 3D Filament Single Screw Extruder if you want the extrusion head on its own. Choose the INTSUPERMAI 110V machine if you want a more complete package with a 6-month manufacturer warranty.

Where each product wins

  • The 3D Filament Single Screw Extruder wins for builders who already have a motor. The motor isn't included, so you can match the extruder to your existing drive instead of buying a duplicate.
  • The INTSUPERMAI 110V machine wins for operators who need a wide material range. It is suited to PEEK, PCL, ABS, PLA, PETG, TPU, and TPE, which covers common 3D printing filaments.

Product notes

3D Filament Single Screw Extruder Plastic Extrusion Processing Machine

3D Filament Single Screw Extruder Plastic Extrusion Processing Machine New

This unit gives you a 20mm screw and three 200W heating coils, with a 28mm inlet and a default 2.5mm nozzle. The trade-off is that the motor isn't included, so you'll need to supply the drive yourself. If you already have a motor and matching drive, this is a clean way to get an extrusion head as a standalone piece. That makes it a sensible option if you're repurposing a motor from another machine. The 2.5mm nozzle suits filament production at that diameter; if you want another size, you'll need to swap the nozzle. The 110V rating and heating-coil design are straightforward for a filament extruder. With the motor out of the picture, this option keeps the hardware focused on the melt-and-push elements.

110V Filament Single-Screw Extruder Plastic Extrusion Processing Machine

110V Filament Single-Screw Extruder Plastic Extrusion Processing Machine

This machine is aimed at someone who wants a configurable filament extruder. It offers adjustable temperature and speed, which matters when you switch between plastics. It suits PEEK, PCL, ABS, PLA, PETG, TPU, and TPE, so it covers a broad mix of common 3D printing materials. A 6-month manufacturer warranty is included. One thing to weigh: the machine may be one of two styles, so you should be prepared for either variant. With a max output of 0.1-0.5 kg/h, this is clearly aimed at small-batch or specialty filament runs rather than heavy production.

Final choice by use case

  • For a bench where the drive already exists: The 3D Filament Single Screw Extruder keeps the purchase focused on the extrusion head, letting you match the screw output shaft to the drive you already have.
  • For a bench where you want to adjust conditions on the fly: The INTSUPERMAI 110V machine offers adjustable temperature and speed, a good fit for someone who wants to tune extrusion parameters without building a controller.

Both are legitimate options; the right one is the one that completes the system you already have.
