- Josef Prusa took us behind the scenes on a tour of their factory in June, 2019 just before Prague Maker Faire. The tour was FANTASTIC and it was amazing to see how much care is put into each aspect of what Prusa and his team offer!

Oh man, he has a LOT of orange and black oompa-loompas working for him.
SO many! :)
"We print them up fresh every morning and melt them down again every night"
Dude. Incredibly solid video. Loved it.
SmarterEveryDay you definitely need one of our printers 🧐
Thanks, Destin!
@@Prusa3D let's make it happen.
DESTIN!!!
Great to see you here!
This makes me feel really confident about spending my money on a Prusa. Quality Control seems to be taken very highly there.
And their printers are running for a really long time in the farm
i bought version 3 of prusa and it do the job perfect
worth the 2000 dollars (if you buy extra nozzles and sheets)
I love my Prusa Mk3 -- but I don't even care what you make... I want Josef Prusa to run *every* company. That was incredibly genuine. Clearly a lot of smart folks working there, and awesome stuff happening. I bet (hope!) your employees all love you, I'm quite sure I would.
Oh no! I think you may have been beaten to the Proposal of Marriage : )
this is for sure the best interview with Josef and his factory!
It's an amazing place, the tour was crazy!
Joel has a way of not bombarding him with random questions instead of letting him talk like some other interviewers :P
“Don’t do the fortnite dance!” Jo is all sorts of wonderful!
If he's not already married there's hope for you yet..
I love how Mr. Prusa is still so very involved in every aspect of his company. Most owners by now would just be on the sidelines in the office.
Hey, thanks for this incredible video. Im a Quality Engineer and Im really impressed with all the quality controls and automated procedures implemented in the factory to be accurate and protect customer from production mistakes. But the must important is definitely the tracking and whole producing traceability that creates all necessary capability to take corrective actions and improve the customer satisfaction. This is really awesome! Im sure my next 3D printing will be a Prusa model. I really regret that I have just bought a model from other company. Thank you so much for sharing!
Your running through a field of 3d printers, that's something I've dreamt of since I found the hobby.
It's incredible to see the amount of 3D printed custom parts used in their testing and manufacturing stations. I'm here printing little toys, they're printing parts that actually do work. So cool.
The level of automation is crazy!
The PRUSA"S are nice little printers, and can perform excellent print quality.
Thank you Josef and 3d printer NERD DUDE for this wonderful video!!!
Fact: don't buy a kit unless you know a little about hardware, software and electronic's! UNLESS YOU LIKE PAIN!!! THEN GO FOR IT!!!
Save yourself a lot of time and frustration and tears and buy the pre-assembled model if you can, you will thank me later!!!
Why do I say this,
I have a small 3d printer store and print farm........ about 3 to 5 times a week I get a call from kit owners or customers in my store and they are crying(real tears) because they can't get a good print from there kit.
Most calls are from the younger crowd and there crying about how they saved there money for a long time to but a 3d printer and now they have a paper weight!!!........I hate it when that happens!!!
Dude came out and I had to double check if it was Seth Rogan 😂
Speaks pounds about the printer when they have so many they use internally to create more of itself! I have seen others take this tour but its awesome to see no matter how many times I see it...;) Plus Josef is the real deal and that is very rare to see these days, hope he never changes!
Sounds like this needs to be a competition - how to build a Mk3 like a pit crew, calibrate and print
Air-driven screwdriver will be a must.
You're right, it ought to be a competition... in Prague, at the factory, Joel should be the one of the contenders, and the winner takes home whatever he assembles :-)
@Joeltelling, the gauntlet has been thrown, will you pick up the challenge of making it a reality ?
This is an impressive amount of organization! I really love how they just keep track of everything!
I love how much Prusa cares about the quality of his products and his staff. Like man Id love to work there.
best tour on YT! Thanks!
Love my Prusa MK3S! Best printer I have owned so far.
That did it!
I'm no longer in any doubt what brand of 3D-printers to aquire for a high-profile prototype R&D project. Actually a very high-profile client so the selection of machines, materials and tools are of utmost importance.
Thanks for the video tour of the Prusa plant!
Thank you for this awesome personal tour of the Prusa Kingdom! My first Prusa i3 Mk3 kit arrives on Monday! Can't wait to get printing on it.
Another fantastic look at what goes into each Prusa printer. I am so happy that I bought the MK3S kit from Prusa. It has been a printing workhorse with minimal maintenance required. I am a total 3D printing newbie, but I have learned so much from this channel and Prusa's videos. I have gone through a few spools of PETG and PLA now with only a few issues (mostly caused by me). I loved the 100K printer anniversary documentary.
Great video Joel! Two great guys enjoying promoting the real Prusa world. What a factory and what impressive detail in the manufacturing process! As a user in the UK, my Mk3s(formerly Mk3) has hundreds of hours under its nozzle through daily use and its consistent performance is testament to the Jo Prusa team's efforts! Thank you Jo and Joel for that great insight!
This is FASCINATING. Love it!
Love my Prusa printer. BEST youtuber tour video of Prusa research facility to date. High Five.
so cool. i have one of these bad boys in shipment to me now. can't wait! what a brilliantly run company.
Seeing how it all works really gave me a greater appreciation for what they do!
Same here, it's interesting to think one of our printer's parts could be in this vid :D
You are going to love it :-).
Mine has been absolutely fantastic, I have no regrets about it at all. You won’t be able to truly appreciate just how good this printer is until you start reading forum posts about print settings for a certain material and then realize that a lot of the problems other people have just don’t apply to you because you have a better printer. What’s even better is that the i3 MK3 is extremely upgradable, so if you’re like me and enjoy pushing the limits of how fast, big, or precise you can print, the sky is basically the limit.
The amount of tracking and testing that goes on their factory is reassuring.
This factory tour and interview with Josef is what convinced me to spend more for a Prusa i3 MK3S+ over other brand printers 8 months ago. That choice has proven to be a wise one. My printer runs over 30 hours a week and with only the suggested regular maintenance has been 100% reliable, not one hiccup or problem. Thank you @Prusa 3D by Josef Prusa and everyone who works with you for your dedication to quality and your customers.
Perfect timing Joel. I got my MK3s package yesterday and putting it together this weekend. I got a roll of Prusament Galaxy black PLA from Amazon so I will be printing soon!
... and much fun was had! Thanks, Joel and Josef, for an inside look at the latest happenings at Prusa.
I heard a Prusa can print itself if needed, but I never thought it was indeed printed by itself in mass production!
Great video, thank you! Also, you running through the farm made my day! How could anyone keep from smiling!
EXACTLY!
Utterly breathtaking. Wow, just wow.
Fantastic! Informative as always! Joe and his crew seemed to have learned a lot of efficiency improvements over their history, and it’s great to see the implementation of custom automation machinery like the ptfe cutter. Someday he may have all machines making his machines!
Loved the "Joker-like" laugh running through the farm at the end! Thanks Joel!
Their QA/QC/traceability process is simply amazing!
I watched this, and....I just can't get enough of these guys! Prusa, you are going to get a lifetime customer out of me. I started with Creality and I don't want to knock them, or their printers, but I can tell that you truly care about each and every product. This will be money well spent with a product that works!
Awesome video guys! I love these factory tours.
I really like the approach to quality control with Prusa.
Makes them very sympathetic for me as a customer.
And their printers truely are reliable.
The tracking of their production line is really good. Everything is labeled.
Saves you a ton of headaches later. I can tell from practice.
One of the main things that sold me on Prusa is that they are proven by having so many cranking 24/7 to make their parts. Brilliant.
Glad I watched the video, great insight ordered my new Prusa last night can't wait 😊
Always Nice to see A tour in the prusa building
Really nice look of the factory and interview with Josef Prusa!
It's so amazing that he started with building 3d printers in his basement with his brother and now he made such really nice 3d printers which i have two of them and the factory with hundreds of 3d printers
Hope this channel and the company prusa research to grow more and more! 👍👍👍
what a great guy. very humble and cooperating. thanks for shearing
This is THE machine I'm working towards getting. Impressive production line and very cool seeing how it all comes together.
It's amazing to see the amout of testing and QA that goes into each and every one of the printers that ship out of Josefs factory!
Exactly this - it was crazy awesome to see how much QA goes into each step of the process.
You should ask Josef if you can bring your girls over in the Spring for Pomlázka. A college friend and his daughter found themselves in Prague during the festival and found the eperience unique. Also, if you go over during Christmas, see if you can get some oplatki.
What an inspirational character Mr. Prusa is.
Very, Very, Very professional setup..
Well done everyone at Prusa!
19:33
In the market for a 3d printer, and Prusa just got my business. Was gonna go with a cheaper alternative but I like what they're about.
As far as Prusa PR goes, this was just a brilliant video!
I hope the Czechs are proud of their own boy!
Serious 'props' to Josef for his amazing manufacturing process! Top notch!
Holy crap, so glad to see this video, what a treat! Extremely interesting!!! Makes me so happy that my MK3S+ is on the way to me now! WOW so impressive of what PRUSA is doing, just incredible.
I'm incredibly impressed with the thorough QA! Definitely making my next 3D printer a Prusa. Thanks for the video, Joel!
Man the Prusa operation is impressive. I'd love to have someone ask them why they still have this giant print farm to create the components for their printer. At their scale, it would seem to be better to injection mold these components. I'm sure they have a good answer to that, I just wish the interviewers would ask that question.
From what I gather, they aren’t at a level of production where injection molding would be financially better. They makes lots of parts, but not 10s of thousands. Plus, their STL files change and are updated more frequently than would be feasible with molds.
When they can run hundreds of printers in real-world application, they can quickly catch problems and iteratively improve on the design of their printers in a continual feedback loop to improve their product. Very smart approach.
I hope one day I can own one of Prusa's amazing machines. Awesome tour!
Best part Joel running down the Farm isles laughing. Would totally do the same.
Quite simply an awesome factory with some amazing automation, part tracking, quality assurance, the works! This is how all plants should be run.
Something tells me it took quite some time to get to this level, but well worth the investment I'm sure.
Excellent Video Joel and Josef,Thank You.
I’ve always wanted to see this. I love the lab. Thanks Joel and Josef.
Thanks for watching!
Love the end of this video, Great video joel.
An amazing tour! If I knew about the story of Prusa and how their I3 evolved before I would have got a MK3S as my first 3D printer.
I have had my Original Prusa i3 MK2 for quite a long time now (December 2016) and I am super happy with it - very few print failures, lots and lots of happy print success. I might get the upgrade kit to turn it into a MK2.5S at some point, but the results I still get out of the stock machine are SO good that I have not felt the need to do it yet. But for that nicer removable print bed and better extruder setup it is probably a worthwhile upgrade.
It makes me super happy to see the company continue to succeed and thrive without cutting corners on quality or on their general "being nice" skills.
Awesome tour. Fun to see behind the curtain.
I love my Prusa MK3(S). The money was well spent!
After seeing how thorough they are with testing and quality assurance my next printer is DEFINENTLY going to be a Prusa!! Excellent!!
Really enjoyed this, Josef is a founding father of the industry and he is such a personable guy, the tour was a lot of fun,
Joe looks really good - healthy & happy I'm so happy for him and his team good luck to you guys on the sl1
Thanks Joel, for taking us through the Prusa Company. Love Prusa printers, going to try get one with my Christmas bonus, then review it. Love the farm with the "Farmers", brilliant. Well done Josef, what a great story to your success.
Wasn't it great to hear him call the operators farmers?
@@3DPrintingNerd I loved that, thought it was so cool.
Absolutely stunning! 500 printers in the farm room, 400 elsewhere in the building. And Making filament in-house too. Wow that would be so cool to see in person :D :D
Stunning so many printers and prusa is not able to make a good Multi material working
What makes you say that? I’ve seen many, many incredible MMU prints from Prusa machines. Did you have an issue?
@@3DPrintingNerd bro u get pay from prusa I now that.
No I don’t. Why would you accuse me of something that is false?
Very impressive testing and QC. This is what I like to see from a company when buying their products. I especially appreciate that they use their own products to make their own products. The is the best QC of all!
It’s really smart to 3D print some of the pieces. Not only is it more efficient and cost effective, but it shows the real world case of using 3D printers and it allows users to print that object at home .
Josef: *breathes*
Joel: OOOOOOH
Epic video made even better given that DHL will be delivering my new MK3S kit any minute! I've built my own printers for years and I finally decided I wanted a no-nonsense workhorse machine and also wanted to support Josef. I really appreciate how Josef and his team continue to advance the industry and haven't sold out to big business, like some others. Keep it up!
That's awesome - good luck and print all the things!
Best crossover episode ever!
I think it's great that there's such a tour and indepth information given. Gives me a good opinion of the company
Glad to see all the effort about to order my Prusa
Great vid thanks! :D
Can't wait to get mine and this takes away some of the wait time gitters knowing how hard core their standers are! :)
Excellent tour! I'm amazed they used 3D printed parts for all of their factory jigs and test equipment. I mean, it's kind of obvious since they are a 3D priniting company but it still astonishing.
My lab just bought and installed 39 of these Prusa 3D printers. It's awesome & I have 24/7 access to the facility. I recently 3D printed some low-profile bull horn speaker housings for a 100W horn driver using the Prusa i3 MK3S :D
Just bought my first 3D printer, a Prusa MK3S+, even more excited after watching this tour!!
This was an awesome video! So cool to see behind the scenes.
thanks Joel and josef
Great video.. love the process of prusa.
What a lovely pair you two make!
It remains my ambition to own some lovely Prusa products in the near future - 'fingers crossed.
Being honest, I want to move to Prague just to be able to work there. What a fantastic place to work. Congratulations
I had a very similar thought. :)
I thought of personally picking up my new MK3S printer. But don’t know it it’s possible. What an amazing production plant! The community lab they have is really incredible! That is like heaven on earth. I really wish we would have something like that where I live. I really love that they are willing to give back so much to the community
This is surreal
Excellent video, I hope some time can go to the Prusa lab an meet Josef, great job!
Impressive!! After watching this excellent video I'll be adding this company
to the top of my list when I'm ready to purchase a printer 😊
Thanks 👍🏻
Totally EPIC!!!! LOVE IT!
You gotta love how Mr. Prusa gives back to the developing community in Prague and the 3D printing community in general... My next 3D printer IS a Prusa !!
And Good Job on the interview Joel !
Thank you!
To me, it's SOO COOL to see all the custom 3D printed parts around the whole facility, especially the Test Lab!!!!! He saved a bundle not having to pay someone to injection mold those custom parts!
This video makes me want to move and work there! :)
21:52 blizzard tatoo, good dude
Wow, impressive and the quality control is amazing, I will get a Prusa after this video.
Very nice factory. Congratulations on your success, very thorough with quality control. I will be looking at Prusa for my 3D printer purchase.
I love the fact that they are running a farm it's probably not the most efficient (injection molding is faster and cheaper and they have the volume for it ) but the r&d benefits must be insane
Watching now brother! Nice work Sean!
U Do It thank you!
Super impressive! Now i know why my mk3 still works flawless after hunderds of hours. I printed pla, various abs types, Asa, pc-max, nylon and petg so far.
So awesome to see that this is how my prusa is being made right now
really comprehensive, thank you!
Despite his success Josef Prusa is still grounded and focuses on innovation and supporting new ideas with the Lab. That's really great and another reason for buying my new printer from Prusa! Props to you, mate!
