Make Filament. Reuse Waste. Invent Materials.
In Good Company
Filament Extrusion
We build the best filament extrusion system on the market, against any competitor, at any price point. Our advantage stems from our patented MixFlow™ filament extrusion technology that has a thermally isolated auger, allowing for independent temperature and pressure control. And uses 1 heat zone instead of the 4 heat zones our competition requires.
This extrudes a far superior quality of plastic filament.
Our system also boasts a unique dual optical diameter feedback, integrated cooling and spooling systems, and our software that lets you extrude filament in autopilot.
Recycle your 3D Printing Waste
Our system comes with a mechanical grinder that can shred any unneeded 3D prints, rafting or support material, and other 3D printing waste into granules that can be used to make new filament. Our system allows for compounding of plastics with a single screw. Safe for a classroom environment, and you can recycle PLA, ABS, PETG, HIPS, Nylon 12, and more!
Save your wallet, and the planet! Reduce 3D printing filament costs by 80% and recycle all your waste in the process. Whether it's your bottom line, or the planet's... ProtoCycler+ just makes sense.
Research and Develop New Materials
The ProtoCycler+ comes with our Command Center software that tracks 20+ parameters related to filament extrusion, allowing you to experiment and create new materials for 3D printing or otherwise. Command Center is the most comprehensive filament extrusion software available.
Powered by artificial intelligence, it is able to learn and optimize new plastics, and can be safely run on autopilot. Frequent firmware updates ensure your system is always top of class, and are free for life.
