I want to tell you about an invention that makes it easy for you to 3d print circuits buttons power connectors voltage dividers and more right inside your plastic prints functionalize F electric is the most conductive 3d printing filament you can buy it's over a thousand times more conductive than any filament available today and it works on the most popular 3d printers functionalize F electric is the only filament that lets you print flashlights battery packs or power connectors right into your project imagine a world where you can print your next cellphone an internet-enabled thing or the latest in wearable electronics right on your 3d printer it'll take us a few years to get there but that's where we're going and functionalize F electric is a major step forward introducing proto cycler the world's first fully integrated fully automated safety certified filament recycler proto cycler allows you to create custom filament and any color you like anytime from raw plastic pellets these pellets are available in a variety of materials and at a drastically lower costs than filament a one-kilo spool of filament costs you up to 50 dollars with proto cycler you can create that same 1 kilo spool in any color for as little as $5 that's a 90% cost savings on every school you print with it's fully automatic operation combined with real time diameter feedback means that anyone can get perfect filament every time because there's a distributed spooling system built right into proto cycler your filament comes pre spooled and ready to use with a class-leading extrusion speed of 10 feet a minute it only takes about two hours to create each one kilo spool and given all the expensive waste 3d printing produces proto cycler delivers a revolutionary solution to that problem as well proto cyclers integrated grinder can recycle all the plastic waste from your 3d printing for the first time and he faild prints obsolete prototypes and especially rafting in support material can now be recycled into perfectly usable filament in any color so using the proto cycler to create a one-kilo spool from your waste plastic costs you practically nothing a 90 percent savings using pellets and a 100 percent savings using your own waste plastic three smart guys in the maker community invented the proto cycler solution the desktop extrusion device that anyone can use designers innovators students teachers companies makers and manufacturers anyone anywhere every day thousands of schools 3d printing filaments are being put to use bringing to life the imaginative ideas are creative people filament is the material used in 3d printing so filament would be the equivalent to ink in two different artists ability of filament is very well it's also expensive typical roll costs anywhere between 25 and 35 pounds we are a UK based startup looking to change this in a big way by introducing the world to the first truly consumer orientated plastic filament extruder the strudel it's a device that allows you to produce quality filament we on how strong role on the type of plastic parts the raw buzzer pellets are available at a fraction of the price we're looking at over a course of the use of one reel they're going to be saving 80% by using tension the team consists of robotics engineers product designers electronic scientists one market you the overlaying frustrated was not only to create a product that perform is better than anything else in the market but also has a design that fits a multitude of environments ranging from workshops home offices and schools we wanted it to be significantly more approachable then our better design so our design is going to be compact we really wanted it to fit on the desk next to your 3d printer so we wanted it to make up as little as space as possible stood out is the product that I would see every workshop every home every makerspace it truly is going to have easi one button press interface that is going to allow you get extra by simple click of a button strudel comes with a 2.4 inch touchscreen with pre-loaded programs these programs contain or fajitas and motor settings needed to be able to exclude successful plastic materials you'll potentially be able to go to any RGB value including any primary color and we are really excited to see what our users will produce it's always been my dream to be able to create things freely with all sorts of different materials there has never been a technique that allowed me to do that until your 3d printing the low-cost personal Street printers has really made 3d printing accessible to a great number of designers and engineers but the choices of materials for printing are extremely limited we want to change this by providing makers be the best and most innovative materials for their printers tada maker was founded in 2012 and is dedicated to develop new and high quality materials for desktops 3d printers after over a years our new work we are now bringing to you three entirely new materials for you to print with the first material is poly Max PLA regular PLA is extremely brittle I think a lot of you have experienced this already to solve this we design an entirely new POA by engineering the Nano structure of the material it is over eight times tougher than regular POA you can deform it to a large extent without breaking it it makes all your parts more durable poly max POA prints under exactly the same conditions as regular POA it is really simple to print and has really good printing quality the second material is poly flax Polly flax is designed specifically for desktop 3d printers and optimized to generate flexible printing objects with very good printing quality signing with poly flex has been a really good opportunity because it allows you to design around really tough constraints like a prosthetic that needs to fit right up against the human skin but it also affords the ability to design fun things like the version of our logo next we have Hollywood Hollywood is different from all other would mimic printing materials which contain large percentages of actual wood powder Hollywood is the first food mimic printing material that contains no actual the wood like appearance of poly wood comes from a spray foam structure which is also what makes would feel like wood you can also control how much it looks like actual wood by simply at adjusting the printing conditions so here at made solid we feel that great 3d printing starts with great 3d printing materials my name is Ryan Martinez the CEO of made solid I joined made solid about six months ago and I came in and saw 3d printers for the first time and I was immediately impressed and I thought well this is a way that we can really really change the world by helping people take their imaginations and turn them into reality it's a problem I also saw was that there was a real limitation what people could create you have something in your head and it wasn't directly translated into a product to have a really good 3d print you need three things you need a good printer mechanically you need good software and you need great materials and we saw that everyone was focusing on first two things let's make more software let's make more printer to make them cheaper make it so that everyone can access them for their price but no one was really focusing on researching materials that would help me create something that mattered to you so with that in mind we started focusing on materials we took our engineering and our chemistry backgrounds and started building stuff that we actually wanted to see that would actually help us create the reality that we had in our imagination there's a reason you put premium gasoline and a $200,000 car you've invested quite a bit of money in your preser and mate solid provides the quality premium materials that will help take that credit to the next step you
