Educational institutions integrate Z Corp. 3D printers into many departments to enhance programs and expose students to leading edge technologies. The printers are indispensable in providing students access to physical models.

Advantages for the Classroom

• Speed - A Z Corp. high-throughput 3D printer is ideal to support several classes of 20 to 30 students each semester
• Low Cost - A low cost per printed part is critical both to support students and keep within budgetary constraints.  
• Reliability - A safe and reliable 3D printer is important, since it operates continuously in a classroom environment.
• Safety - Unlike other machines, Z Corp. 3D printers require no model support structures that need to be removed with razor knives or chemical baths.

Applications

• Mechanical Engineering - Z Corp. 3D printers are capable of creating appearance prototypes directly from digital data, allowing students to evaluate their designs in 3D.
• Architecture - quick, inexpensive models make it possible to print multiple pieces during the course of a project and use the models not only to present, but also as part of the creative process.
• Industrial Design - Z Corp. 3D printers can produce models of any complexity. The models can be sanded and painted to replicate production models.
• Fine Arts - students are able to create physical output of their projects and gain valuable feedback on their projects.
• Bio-Medical Research - the unique capability of Z Corp.'s Color 3D printers to create full color parts allows researchers to accurately represent molecular models in three-dimensions.
