When it comes to 3D printing, there are many different material types to choose from. The Rapid Prototyping Studio uses a variety of 3D printer processes which cover a range of filaments, resins, and powder. This page is designed to inform you of the materials we have available, their properties, best use cases, and more.
For Personal or Research reservations which go over the user's credit balance, users usually prefer to purchase additional credits from our online store, which covers all material and machine upkeep charges. However, some users may want to purchase materials directly from the Rapid Prototyping Studio, and we also allow this for some materials through the same online store linked above.
