Graphene 3D Lab Inc. has entered into a contract agreement with ZeGo Robotics LLC to develop a proof-of-concept 3D printer.

Specifically designed to print with Graphene 3D Lab’s conductive graphene filament and other functionally enhanced composite materials, the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania based company is set to deliver a prototype machine in the next three months.

"Graphene 3D Lab believes the development of a 3D printer uniquely designed to capitalise on our functional filaments is core to achieving our goal of developing a dynamic ecosystem to allow the 3D printing of operational devices,” explained Graphene 3D Lab CEO, Daniel Stolyarov. “ZeGo Robotics is an exciting and innovative company and we look forward to working with their team."

Graphene 3D Lab is confident that the proof-of-concept machine will have an optimal turnaround time and maximise long-term benefits for its proprietary graphene-based nanocomposite 3D printing materials. Rights to the intellectual property created will be assigned to Graphene 3D along with a perpetual, royalty-free license to use any pre-existing ZeGo intellectual property integrated into the machine.

Daniel Goncharov, owner of ZeGo Robotics commented: "This is an exciting opportunity for ZeGo Robotics to collaborate with Graphene 3D Lab's research and development arm; the project will combine our expertise in the development of 3D printers with their expertise in specialty printing materials to develop a ground breaking new product."

In light of this development, Graphene 3D Lab will no longer be moving forward with the acquisition of Boots Industries, previously announced at the end of 2014.
