THE PROCESS

The 3D printing process builds a three-dimensional object from a computer-aided design (CAD) model, usually by successively adding material layer by layer, which is why it is also called additive manufacturing, unlike conventional machining, casting and forging processes, where material is removed from a stock item (subtractive manufacturing) or poured into a mold and shaped by means of dies, presses and hammers.

COST

• All materials, machines and machine time are included as part of academic study and growth.  All projects that are required for a class have NO cost.

• For individual ideas and projects created outside of school requirements there is a nominal cost for materials and machine time. For 3D printing:   

  • $2.00 for setup and the first 30 minutes

  • $1.00 per 30 minutes thereafter

  • For Example....a model that takes 1 hour 29 minutes to print is $2.00+$1.00+$1.00 = $4.00

• You will get a price quote before your file is printed and jobs must be paid for before they are completed.
