What We Do Best

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. This allows our system to outperform other extruders, even those that use multiple heat zones.

This all results in a far superior quality of 3D printer filament.

Our system also boasts a unique dual optical diameter feedback system, integrated cooling and spooling, and our advanced 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.

Our Customers Love ProtoCycler+, and So Will You!

I was impressed at the control my team had in filament prototyping. The hardware and software were much more accessible and comprehensive than the large filament extruder we use for fiber infused PLA. It was very easy to know what parameters to change when prototyping new filaments. The data outputted by the sensors allows you to know what parameters to adjust from basic temp and speed to PID weights. We were able to prototype and extrude new filaments in a relatively short time span. We got the results we wanted. Best filament extruder for prototyping without a doubt!

Justin, University Researcher

Canada

I love making good quality filament with my ProtoCycler! The menu structure is easy to understand and the ability to load and create new profiles is great. Having the ability to change settings on the fly (through the software) is really useful while experimenting with new materials as changes can be made in real time.

Peter, Educator

Australia

I tried the ProtoCycler+, and it is a perfectly functional device! The filament extrusion software works great. I have nothing but praise!

Jan, Professor

Slovakia

Very cool tech! I have had a lot of fun being able to personally recycle my own prints and make my own filament using the ProtoCycler+
