Would you like to learn how to use a 3D-printer? Are you already familiar with 3D printing and wish to print your own projects? The Medical Library has a 3D printer that you can book. Participate in a 3D workshop to learn the basics of the printer and gain access to book the printer.
The Medical Library has one bookable 3D printer. Learn how to use the library’s 3D-printer in a mandatory workshop. After having completed the workshop you will be able to book the printer for your own projects as a certified user.
Frequently asked questions

The software listed below is free to download for your own use. The library staff does not provide support on these software products.
Please note that Simplify3D is licensed software and is therefore not listed below. The program is installed on the 3D computer at the Medical Library.
You must comply with the handling and safety regulations included in the mandatory workshop.
You are forbidden to print items that are intended to harm others or are otherwise illegal.
The printer hood should be in place and the hatches closed to minimise noise and odour during printing.
You are responsible for the entire printing process (starting the printing process, that the printing proceeds normally and that it runs within the scheduled time).
Leave the workspaces and the 3D printer in such a condition that they are ready for the next person to print.
