I love seeing manufacturing and 3d printing in mfg settings. I work in mfg (not 3d printing, sadly).

All that white filament. They must go through a lot of nozzles.

Though it's hard to see from the video whether they're using something special like a ruby-tipped one or whatever. Also, maybe a wider nozzle makes a difference.

Does white filament wear out nozzles faster?

Titanium Dioxide is fairly abrasive, and it’s one of the most common white pigments. It could be something else though, that’s just my best guess.

Or a single diamondback nozzle :p
