3D Scanner

3D Scanner

EinScan Pro 2x Plus is a 3D scanner from Shining 3D. It can be used to create 3D models of real objects.

With this scanner you can:

  • Scan objects freehand or with the turntable in high accuracy and resolution
  • Capture the color and texture of the surface
  • Scan in automatic and manual modes
  • Merge multiple scans to capture large objects

Suitable for industrial inspection, reverse engineering, prototyping, digital archiving, and more.

 

Start

The software creates a point cloud that can be exported as OBJ or STL.

Software

The software „EXScan Pro“ is preinstalled at the Fablab computer. Tutorials for the software can be found on the internet.

Material 

Pretty much everything.
Note:  transparent or reflective objects can`t be seen by the scanner. Very small and thin texture like hair is hard to capture.

Costs

2,00 € per machine use

Ultimaker S5 dual extrusion

Ultimaker S5 dual extrusion

3D printer based on the Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM) or Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) process. The 3D printer has two extruders so you can load two different filament types or different colours. This 3D printer can run overnight. Build volume: 330 x 240 x 300mm

Always ask the fablab team before using the machine and we will give you all necessary information about working safety.

Official tutorials on youtube>>>

 

Start

You need a digital 3D model that you can export in .STL format.

Software

Before printing, you have to prepare your 3D model. For this purpose, the software CURA is available at the Fablab. You can also download CURA for free and install it on your computer. 

 

Material 

Fablab has different materials (filaments) to choose from. PLA, TPU, PVA, Breakaway and some experimental filaments. You can also bring your own filament (D=2,85mm).

Costs

The costs depend on the material required and the time needed.

For more information consult our price list.

Vacuum forming machine

Vacuum forming machine

It`s a manual thermoforming machine for the production of negative moulds and for moulding objects. The machine heats thermoplastic films and stretches them over the mould by applying a vacuum. It disposes about programmable heating elements you can control via touchscreen and it`s possible to safe programs. The negative moulds should be heat resistant and solid as the hot thermoplastic films stretches over them. It has a moulding area of 430 x 280 mm and a height of 160 mm. After the formed part has cooled, air is forced between the mould and the sheet to help it release.

Vacuum forming is widely used for industries and applications such as chocolate or sweets molds, frames and covers of any kind, packaging for electronic devices and production of small plastic components.

Please be aware that the heating elements get really hot, so don`t put your hands in that area. Always ask the fablab team before using the machine and we will give you all necessary information about working safety.

Material 

PPlastic sheets up to ~6 mm: PMMA, PC, PE, HIPS, PETG & many more
