3D printing capabilities

The following 3D printing capabilities are available across campus. For additional information, contact the facility or faculty member listed.

 

Equipment Details Location Use Type
Stratasys F370 3D Printer
  • a 14" x 10" x 14" chamber
  • a heated build volume
  • printing in ASA, PLA, ABS, PC ABS (polycarb), TPU-92A (polyurethane), ABS-ESD7 (static-dissipated), Diran 410MF07 (nylon), and 1 dissolvable support material
  • the ability to print both rigid and flexible plastic materials
  • reduced warping by keeping the materials at a similar temperature to their print temperature
IDEA Center Innovation Lab User Facility
Connex3 Objet 350 3D Printer

This printer's main feature is its 3 print heads, which allows multiple materials or colors to be printed simultaneously. This saves time and enables:

  • printing an object with flexible and rigid plastics (like an anatomical model) complete with flexible cartilage and a solid bone structure
  • printing a multicolored object
  • printing a hard phone case, for example, with flexible plastics over the buttons and charging port
  • 14" x 14" x 14" build volume

Universal 150W Laser Cutter/Engraver

For small-batch manufacturing (18" x 32" cut area), the Universal 150W is simple to use and can cut or engrave the following materials:

  • wood (up to 1/2" thick)
  • metal (marking only)
  • acrylic (up to 1/2" thick)
  • cardboard

Kern OptiFlex 350W Laser Cutter/Engraver

Combines ultra-high power with fine resolution to create outstanding prototypes at both small and large scale. Excellent for manufacturing, the Kern OptiFlex 350W cuts or engraves sheets up to 4' x 8':

  • wood (up to 3/4" thick)
  • metal (cut mild steel up to 4 mm thick)
  • acrylic (up to 3/4" thick)
  • cardboard
