Lib+ Technology Lab

LIB+ The Technology Lab for Research & learning Support

 

The Lab’s printers

Our printers use the most popular FDM (Fused Deposition Modelling) 3D printing technology. This technology is commonly used to create prototypes, illustrative models, and functional parts. The printing materials are diverse and have different properties (flexibility, strength, and durability). The printing material will be chosen according to the purpose of the model.

 

3D printing cost

Pricing for print jobs will be calculated, aiming to minimize the overall cost, taking into consideration the requested model’s complexity, the material type, and the amount needed.

Please note that some models on these sites may include a fee to download and use.

 

Delivery time of the finished model

Typical printing time for models is 14 work days. This period may vary depending on the complexity of the model, technical issues, and prior print jobs.

 

Collecting the finished model

The models can be collected from the Technology Lab during operating hours: Sunday-Thursday between 11:00 and 17:00. Or from the Circulation desk with prior notice.
