Open Lab evening: 3D printers

Future Tools Series

"Future Tools" is our current series of workshops in which we take an in-depth look at various technologies: We will train you on the machines of the future and use them to develop new ideas. In this Open Lab evening, we will be looking at the dream tool of all fans of three-dimensionality - the 3D printer! Are you interested in 3D printers and looking for a beginners' course on 3D printing? Then come to our Open Lab evening for an easy and clear introduction.

WHAT IS AN OPEN LAB EVENING?

Every Thursday it gets creative in the lab. You will learn about methods such as design thinking or future storytelling, can try out 3D printers and laser cutters and take a look behind the scenes of the lab projects. There's something new every week.

In this workshop, you will learn important basics for implementing your own 3D printing projects. Using the example of a small lettering, we will demonstrate how you can create your own 3D print designs with TinkerCAD and print them on the Ultimaker 2 with the help of Cura. Join in and become a "digital maker" in no time at all.

The 3D printer and materials for experimenting can be used free of charge on site. Bringing your own laptop is an advantage for developing your own design. But don't worry, we also have laptops on site.

A practical note: printing on the 3D printer takes a relatively long time. The focus is on providing an insight into the technology - we therefore cannot promise that all visitors will be able to print something.

What you will learn:

->What is a 3D printer?

->3D printing materials: What materials can you print with?

->How do I create a design?

->3D printer instruction - safety first!

->Tips and tricks

Machine:
