Maximize 3D Print Throughput

  • Maximize output of your makerspace with
    • The least amount of hardware invested
    • With the fewest 3D Printers required to meet the demands of your curriculum/student body
    • Streamlined workflows to maximize the number of prints with the fewest printers and people

Ongoing Support

  • Monthly support and / or maintenance calls
  • Printer management, repairs and workflows
  • Expert advice for managing, running and maintaining makerspaces:
    • Onsite support
    • Offsite support calls
    • Monthly zoom calls

Nice Things Our Clients Have Said

background

One of the best workshops I have attended in my 6 years of teaching. The two days met different concerns that I had for my upcoming year of teaching several STEM courses. I now have so many ideas about what to teach and how to teach it. Thank you for your time, effort, and professionalism.

Really helpful workshop that makes me feel more confident in my instruction! As a new teacher, I really appreciate the way the instructors created practical applications for 3D printing, so what I learned will definitely be incredibly helpful to my teaching practice.


Bridget Day

Gregory Elementary School

This workshop was well worth two summer days! I loved that you didn't tell us how to do things but let us struggle through the learning process. Loved this workshop, the pace, the instructors...all great!


Toni-Ann Raj

Woodmont Elementary School

I learned quick methods for getting students started in design without overloading them with too many technical terms. Biggest takeaway: Students will enjoy 3D Design and printing more if they start realizing their designs as soon as possible... Oh, and the sketching and drawing lessons by hand give me new ways to challenge my students.

Two things I loved about this workshop [1] Finding techniques for teaching this to students so that they learn through "doing and making, and [2] Finding the right technology that’s best for my classroom and getting time actually to print/troubleshoot prints.

Blown away by the methodology used to introduce 3D design, establishing facility with foundation features by repetitive design exercises using these features to "make anything”
