The machines we have available in the PIT:

3D Printer (Projet 3510 HD Plus)

    3D printing is a process of making a three-dimensional solid object of any shape from a digital model.

Laser Cutter (VLS 6.60)

    This technology uses a laser to cut materials and is typically used for industrial manufacturing applications.

CNC Mill (Roland MDX 540)

    This is a multiaxis machine allowing the horizontally mounted workpiece to be rotated, essentially allowing asymmetric and eccentric turning.

Drill Press (Jet 17″ Drill Press)

    A drill press is a fixed style of drill that may be mounted on a stand or bolted to the floor or workbench.

Mill (Bridgeport Series I Standard Mill)

    A milling cutter is spun about an axis while a workpiece is advanced through it in such a way that the blades of the cutter are able to shave chips of material with each pass.

Lathe (South Bend 28″ Bench Lathe)

    The Lathe is a machine tool which rotates the workpiece on its axis to perform various operations such as cutting, sanding, knurling, drilling, order formation, facing, and turning.

Band Saw (Jet 8201-k 1HP)

    A bandsaw is a power tool which uses a blade consisting of a continuous band of metal with teeth along one edge to cut various workpieces.
