Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) printing is a 3D printing process that uses production grade thermal plastic materials to print its 3D objects.
Our 3D printers can be used for producing functional prototypes, concept models, and manufacturing aids. It’s a technology that can create accurate details and boasts an exceptional strength to weight ratio. We use PLA filament from HATCHBOX in our lab, which we provide free of charge.
A 3D45 Dremel is a professional-grade 3D printer that can turn a digital design into a physical object by layering materials. It has a large build volume and can print with various materials such as PLA, nylon, and PETG. If you've completed T1 training, simply ask one of our staff members about printing on the 3D45 Dremel.

Filament diameter: 1.75 mm
Layer Resolution: ≥ 0.05 mm
This printer has a heated bed - which is especially useful for preventing warping - and boasts a massive build volume. If you've completed T1 training, simply ask one of our staff members about printing on the TAZ.
Build Volume: 280 x 280 x 250 mm (11.0" x 11.0" x 9.8")
Filament diameter: 2.85 mm
Layer Resolution: 0.05 mm - 0.4 mm
These 3 printers, while small, are surprisingly precise and very intuitive. Easy to move around, these guys are always found sharing their little cart. If you've completed T1 training, simply ask one of our staff members about printing on the Ultimakers.
Build Volume: 120 x 120 x 115 mm (4.7" x 4.7" x 4.5")
Filament diameter: 2.85 mm
Layer Resolution: 0.02 mm - 0.2 mm
The JellyBoxes main feature is their ability to be easily disassembled and reassembled - encased in clear acrylic, if you've ever wanted to get a closer look at the mechanisms of a 3D printer, using the JellyBox is a great way to do it.
Say hello to dual extrusion! While they do tend to take longer, the Sindohs can print in two colors at once, which can produce some pretty awesome prints.
Build Volume: 228 x 200 x 300 mm
Filament diameter: 1.75 mm
Layer Resolution: 0.05 mm - 0.4 mm
SLA Printing is a 3D printing process that’s popular for its fine details and exactness. It uses an ultra violet laser convert liquid photopolymers (a special type of plastic resin) into layers of solid plastic. Because of its many applications, SLA printing has become a favored choice for a wide variety of industries.
This resin printer, although slower than our other printers, is incredibly precise. If you have a research or other school project that requires fine detailing, please feel free to get in contact with us!
Build Volume: 145 x 145 x 175 mm (5.71" x 5.71" x 6.89")
Layer Resolution: 0.025 - 0.100 mm
