“For me, the manufacturing mechanisms, machinery, and futuristic material blends are really the core underpinnings of this technology. With our specialized multi-material 3D printer design for printing batteries, I approached its development alongside our co-founders using the same systematic approach we took when designing Formula One race cars. We're methodically upgrading each component, adding more complexity, increasing the print speed, and reducing weight - advancing it step-by-step through an iterative process. When you boil it down, we're creating a tool to create boundless sources of energy.”

"Shifting substantial portions of what we make and use from steel and plastic to composites—which are amalgamations of a variety of fibers, embedded in a variety of plastics—could bring new kinds of transportation, more terrifying weapons of war, and lighter and more durable smartphones, wearables and other consumer electronics.

All of that is possible because composites, while they have their challenges, are often able to perform just as well as high-strength metal parts, but with a fraction of the weight. Composites are the reason modern jetliners are so fuel-efficient, and the entire wind-power industry would be impossible without enormous turbine blades made from composites."
