Storyboard Text
- 3D printing is rapidly transforming the way that we create, and it has proven to be an invaluable technology that is actively solving many problems. Unfortunately, it is also contributing to another one. Plastic waste.
- The vast majority of 3D printers in homes and businesses use plastic as their feedstock. Now everyone that 3D prints knows, not every print goes as planned, and not every prototype is a success.
- * Mountains of 3D Waste *
- 3D REDO
- Now that we've explored the problem, let's talk about a way to deal with it . 3D REDO aims to coordinate, manage, and redirect the flow of 3D waste away from garbage cans and landfills, and back into a valuable resource
- 3D REDO
- AT 3D REDO we're developing a simple and straight forward process to sort, granulate, and reprocess these plastics
- 3D REDO
- We believe that the best use for 3D waste plastics is to turn it right back into 3D filament again
- 3D REDO
- Our method utilizes a robust grinder unit to granulate the plastic, a plastic extruder to process it, and a spooler to wind it.

- But before you can do that, you have to sort the material. For our pilot program, we're working with Voodoo manufacturing out of NYC. These guys do a lot of high volume 3d print jobs, so they're a great partner to work with on this
- They send us a couple hundred lbs per month. We sort it by color, granulate it, extrude
