Update on ASU 3D Printing Research and Teaching Lab

Two weeks ago, we were part of a fantastic open house at the ASU Polytechnic campus for the grand opening of the Additive Manufacturing Research center, a part of the Manufacturing Research and Innovation Hub.  What a great event it was where the Additive Manufacturing community in Arizona gathered in one place to celebrate this important piece in the local ecosystem.  A piece that puts Arizona in the lead for the practical application of 3D Printing in industry.

I could go on and on, but better writers by far have penned some great stories on the event and on the lab.

ASU’s article is here: New hub’s $2 million in cutting-edge 3-D printing equipment will allow students to stay on forefront of rapidly growing sector

And Hayley Ringle of the Phoenix Business Journal summed it all up, with some great insight into the impact on education and job growth in “See inside the Southwest’s largest 3D printing research facility at ASU“

And last but not least, here are some pictures related to PADT that ASU provided:
