IMPORTANT! Hardware Requirements – Bring Your Laptop and USB!If you are attending the Laser, WAZER or 3D Printing courses, you will need to bring your own laptop and a USB drive on-site during training. We will also ask you to download software PRIOR to coming for training. If you are unable to bring your own laptop or your laptop doesn’t meet the hardware requirements, please contact us at 1-800-338-2238 or email [email protected].
Hardware Requirements for 3D Printing CoursesPrior to the course, we will be asking you to download Ultimaker Cura slicing software (this is “light” software and most computers have no trouble with running Cura). The recommended requirements are:
From exporting and importing STLs, to slicing software and material, there are many factors to consider when 3D printing, and you need to think of them all for successful prints! If you have had some 3D printing exposure and are ready to expand your comfort zone, this course is for you! Join us to learn current industrial trends for designing a part for 3D printing, the powerful tools found in slicing software from pre-set material profiles to in-depth printer settings, what materials you should use for what and why, how certain 3D printer features affect usability and printability, plus extra “tid-bits” to help you make successful 3D prints! Troubleshooting some common issues will also be discussed. We will be working with multiple 3D printer brands and models; the course material covered applies to most popular 3D printer brands. Each attendee will 3D print and take home a part(s)!
