What is a makerspace?

Most notable for its large-scale and industrial grade 3D printing, the Stratasys F900 3D printer creates highly accurate 3D printed parts.

The Stratasys J850 Resin Printer achieves higher resolution, a better surface finish, and produces higher-quality parts compared to 3D printers. GrabCAD Print, an application for preparing and managing print jobs, and GrabCAD PolyJet Server are both used to control the printing.

The F120 provides users with precise prototypes from a CAD design useful for manufacturing and creating functional parts using two material coil boxes, one for the model and one for support.

The MakerBot Method X 3D printer produces manufacturing and production parts using manufacturing-grade materials, such as PLA and PETG. The Method X has its material bay located on the front of the printer, allowing for an accessible way to load materials.

The VersaUV LEF2-300 can be used to directly print onto products, including accessories and ceramics, creating colorful and textured effects. The LEF2-300 is notable for customizing and creating unique graphics.

The BenchMill 6100 is a benchtop CNC machining center used to rough cut or drill strong, solid materials. The milling machine functions by delivering robust instructions in computer numerical control (CNC) and advanced manufacturing.

Similar to the BenchMill 6100, the BenchTurn 7000 is a benchtop CNC turning center used to cut or drill strong, solid materials but uses a rotating tool. The BenchTurn 7000 allows users to develop and edit programs in order to create and cut parts.

Unlike the Ultra R5000 with two lasers, the Universal VLS 6.75 Laser has a single laser used for engraving and cutting. The VLS 6.75 has Smart Laser Source Technology that allows the system to automatically choose the correct settings depending on the material.

The Ultra R5000 Laser offers laser material processing for various advanced polymer and composite materials using its two lasers to cut or engrave.

The ProtoMax WaterJet is a precision machining tool operating under software control that uses high-pressure water and garnet abrasive to cut complicated parts. The ProtoMax supports numerous materials, including metal, plastic, glass, ceramics, and stone.

The Formech 508DT Vacuum Former has a depth of up to 7.3” (185mm), useful for challenging tasks. The 508DT is utilized to form various materials, such as ABS and polycarbonate, into different shapes.

The Artec Space Spider is a high-resolution 3D scanner based on blue light technology. It is perfect for capturing small objects or intricate details of large industrial objects in high resolution, with steadfast accuracy and brilliant color.

The SST4030 Ultrasonic Cleaner has a 187-gallon capacity and removes soluble support structures from printed parts. The SST4030 can hold a printed part as large as 3’x2-1/2’x3’ in order to accommodate the print capacity of the Stratasys F900.

The Balco WaterJet Cleaner is utilized to clean support material from printed parts by using one of two types of nozzles. Based on the type of nozzle, users are able to choose the flow rate and pressure suitable for cleaning both delicate and robust parts.
