Digital Fabrication Lab

The Digital Fabrication Lab offers a wide range of digital manufacturing options: from 3D scans to 3D VR modelling, 3D printing, laser cutting, to CNC processing. For data creation, the Digital Fabrication Lab relies primarily on the programme Rhinoceros which is provided and supported.

The Digital Fabrication Lab provides cardboard to create mock-up models; all other wooden or plastic plates have to be procured in the respective workshops or externally. As far as CNC milling area is concerned, there is a team of tutors to assist the students in their project work.

3D printing

Objet Eden 500V Polyjet Matrix with extremely fine resolution

Filament printer "Ultimaker" & "Gigabot" for fast models

Stereo lithography Formlabs 2 for fine models

Laser Sinter EOS Formiga P110 with polyamide, a machine typically used in industrial production

3D Scanning

For the digitalization of models and reverse engineering

3 & 4 axis CNC milling

For model development and prototypes

3 laser cutters of different sizes

Laser cuts up to approx. 10 mm in wood, cardboard & plastic; laser engraving in wood and metal

VR modelling
