Equipment
The digital lab has various machines for rapid prototyping and design experimentation. They enable students to transfer design ideas quickly from the digital realm into physical objects. These resources include:
- four PC computer workstations with a 3070 graphics card
- two Universal laser cutter / engravers (18" x 32")
- three 3D printers (resin, ABS, and PLA)
- a foam cutter
Cost
Laser cutting: Use of the laser cutter/engraver is free for undergraduate and graduate students. Time slots are booked online.
3D printing: The cost of 3D printing depends on the material. If you need to know how much a 3D print will cost, see Ken before asking him to print it. Cash, debit, and credit card are accepted.
