    Introduction

    The 3D printing space at SPOT is providing students with advanced resources, training and coaching for rapid prototyping.

    With a community of more than 500 trained users each year, this modern and evolutionary workshop serves as a 24/7 3D printing farm that produces tens of thousands parts per year.

    We are equiped with reliable and well-maintained machines that enable students to learn, innovate and meet their challenges successfully. Because sustainability is one of our primary concerns, we choose the most eco-friendly machines and consumables, and we work towards recycling our plastic waste!

    You need a specific training to access this space and use the open-access 3D printers.
