About the Digital Fabrication Lab

In the Digital Fabrication Lab we have a range of 3D printing equipment for CCI students to use, once they have done an induction, this equipment includes;

Three Ultimaker S7 fused filament printers:

these printer can print black and white PLA filament as well a special type of support filament called PVA which dissolves in water.

in order to prepare files for 3D printing on these machines you need to slice them using a piece of software called Cura which you can download for free for mac and windows OS by following the link below
