We don't doubt it, but the life in three dimensions is everywhere around us.
00:12
The gain of time, energy, reduction of cost, creativity,
00:15
the impression 3D transform our modes of consumption and fabrication.
00:20
And one of the world's giants of the sector is here in Prague, the capital Czech.
00:24
Découvrez l'entreprise technologique à la croissance la plus rapide d'Europe centrale
00:29
dans Made in Europe, le nouveau magazine d'euro-news dédié aux success stories européennes.
00:54
The world's capital of 3D printing.
01:00
Please welcome Yosef Proussa.
01:03
This is the Core One Al, the largest sibling of our proven Core One with edit features for reliable large format 3D printing.
01:19
Venu présenter ce jour-là à la presse les dernières nouveautés de son entreprise,
01:24
Yosef Proussa est l'un des entrepreneurs les plus visionnaires de la République tchèque.
01:29
Nous le retrouvons dans cette ancienne usine reconvertie, le site historique de l'entreprise.
01:35
L'entrepreneur était étudiant en économie lorsqu'il a découvert l'univers de l'impression 3D il y a 16 ans.

L'entrepreneur était étudiant en économie lorsqu'il a découvert l'univers de l'impression 3D il y a 16 ans.
02:03
Je suis en train de me faire musique, j'ai fait des performances de la musicalité.
02:08
J'ai besoin de knobs et de faders.
02:10
J'ai cherché à quoi je vais protéger et de faire les choses pour moi-même.
02:14
Il y a eu a projet au Université de Bath, la UK, en make de self-replication 3D printers.
02:23
J'ai décidé de construire des des immédiats.
02:26
Over a very short time, my design became the effective standard of people who were building it.
02:33
I was still studying, I dropped out. At the same time, I started the business.
02:37
Depuis la création de sa start-up en 2012, la notoriété de Josef Proucha n'a cessé de croître,
02:44
notamment après avoir produit et fourni gratuitement des visières de protection
02:47
à tous les hôpitaux tchèques lors de la pandémie de Covid-19.
02:51
L'entreprise produit aujourd'hui plus de 10 000 imprimantes 3D par mois,
02:56
exportée dans 120 pays sur tous les continents.
02:59
Elle compte 1 200 employés et génère un revenu annuel de plus de 160 millions d'euros.
03:05
Josef Proucha a récemment reçu la médaille du mérite tchèque pour services rendus à l'État dans le domaine de l'économie.
03:11
What drives me is, you know, to push the technology forward, to find new ways how we could use the machines,
03:19
how we can make them better.
03:21
It is truly limitless.
03:23
The same machine, you can buy it for a hobby.
03:26
But at the same time, the same machine is the driving force of a development office of a company
03:31
with over 100 000 people worldwide.
03:33
It is just amazing.
03:35
Proucha Research compte plusieurs géants industriels parmi ses clients jusque dans l'industrie spatiale.
03:41
Outre quatre usines en République tchèque, l'entreprise veut devenir le premier fabricant d'imprimantes 3D
03:47
et de filaments aux États-Unis, où elle vient d'inaugurer un site de 10 000 mètres carrés.
03:53
Josef Proucha mise sur le savoir-faire européen pour contrer notamment la concurrence chinoise.
03:58
We are working on some technologies to make it viable for entrepreneurs to use 3D printing
04:04
as their main manufacturing method.
04:06
That will unlock a lot of potential to bring some of the product manufacturing back to Europe
04:16
so we could be more self-sufficient.
04:18
This technology has to be made here at affordable prices.
04:24
It is a strategic industry.
04:25
We made these traps for masks on the 3D printers.
04:54
For the medicals because of COVID, it was the first thing that we printed pro bono.
05:00
And the next step was maybe it will be a good idea to print some other stuff.
05:06
I need a silent cello for practicing in our flat because of neighbors.
05:14
So I have idea to print the silent cello for me and then for other people.
05:21
Baptisé My cello, l'idée a valu plusieurs prix à l'entreprise et une ascension fulgurante.
05:29
So the same piece on the My cello with electronics.
05:35
Outre son activité première, Sensio est aujourd'hui le plus gros fabricant en Europe de violoncelles électriques
05:44
et vend ses instruments dans le monde entier.
05:47
Une réussite européenne pleinement assumée.
05:49
We have stability, we have a lot of ideas and we are able to do it on our way.
05:57
Právě jsou tady nějaké umělecké tradice, umělecké řemeslo, vyrábení nástrojů
06:01
a dokážeme to uchopit moderním způsobem.
06:05
Takže my jsme proevropští, protože vidíme v tom více výhod než nevýhod.
06:09
Že nejde teda jenom třeba ten business, ale chceme jí poskytovat práci lidem
06:13
a vracet něco té zemi, která nás tady vychovala.
06:17
That's the reason that we are returning part of our know-how and knowledge base to other companies
06:26
and to to schools.
06:27
We are connected to our Czech Republic and we are happy here.
06:35
De retour dans la capitale tchèque, c'est dans une brasserie bien locale mais très particulière
06:41
que nous attend une dernière surprise.
06:43
Aux côtés des cuves de brassage, trônent deux imprimantes 3D Prusa qui tournent 24h sur 24h.
06:49
We have trained these coasters, they are actually cheaper than the old paper ones, they last much longer.
06:55
We have covers for our beer cans, carriers for our cans, so people can easily take them and it's a promotion as well.
07:04
We save costs on the promotion because we produce the merch and the promo material ourselves and that's how people remember us.
07:11
We have designed our own sampling set holder.
07:13
Devenue partie intégrante de la stratégie commerciale de l'entreprise,
07:17
l'impression 3D permet aussi de fabriquer des composants pour les équipements de la brasserie
07:22
comme ce boîtier de contrôle des cuves ou ces simples crampons de fixation.
07:26
Des détails qui sont loin d'être anodins pour le brasseur.
07:30
Je l'utilise Brusa et le cèque-printer parce que je design et fabriquer des composants,
07:35
et je ne veux pas que les circulent autour du monde.
07:38
Quelqu'un peut me copier facilement.
07:40
Je dois soutenir les cèques ou les européennes entreprises et pourquoi je dois soutenir les chineses ?
07:45
C'est probablement qu'on va détruire mon design.
07:47
Je dois soutenir les cèques qui ne va détruire mon design.
07:52
Pour moi, c'était un no-brainer.
07:54
Je l'ai ouai d'un soutien !
