ProtoCycler makes 3D printing filament for schools, colleges, and universities around the world.

Empower Creative Thinking

Go beyond what's available "off the shelf", and create whole new filaments with custom colours and materials. Allow your students to push the boundaries of what's possible with custom 3D printer filament.

Unleash your students' creativity today.

ProtoCycler is a filament maker system for creating or recycling 3D printer filament

Inspire Change

3D printing in an educational setting can be highly wasteful as people learn and make mistakes - that's the whole point! Teach the benefits of closed loop recycling with ProtoCycler's industry exclusive available grinder, and recycle all of that waste back into high quality 3D printer filament.

Sustainable 3D printing is possible when you recycle your 3D printer filament with ProtoCycler V3

Testimonials

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!

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.

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

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+
