Weber State University Expands 3D Printing Education with Stratasys F370CR Composite Printer
Weber State University's Advanced Research and Solutions Center serves as an innovation and collaboration hub for local industry, primarily in the aerospace, defense, and advanced materials industries. The institution offers students educational and hands-on opportunities, as well as access to a variety of research and development resources, including additive manufacturing.
The challenge
To give students and local industry the best chance of success, the university must provide access to current and emerging technologies, including additive manufacturing. However, Weber State University had older 3D printersthat were slow and expensive, and offered a limited selection of materials. This situation limited the university’s Advanced Research and Solutions Center from meeting the needs of students and industry.
The solution: composite 3D printing
To strengthen its 3D printing capabilities, the university has added a Stratasys F370®CR composite 3D printer to its line of manufacturing equipment.
The F370CR is capable of using two composite materials and a variety of other engineering thermoplastics. Composite 3D printing materials include FDM® Nylon-CF10 and ABS-CF10, which contain 10% shredded carbon fiber for increased strength and stiffness.
Composite 3D Printing at Weber State University
With the Stratasys F370CR composite 3D printer, Weber State University can take advantage of state-of-the-art technology with a wider range of materials, including advanced composite polymers. The F370CR’s ease of use and consistent print performance 3D printing solutions provide users with
The composite 3D printer will help the university provide innovative and cutting-edge tools to its current and future students and clients.
