3D printers can be an invaluable tool for teachers and students to teach and learn about STEM applications. From creating a physical model of a complex mathematical concept to aiding in the expression of an artistic idea, 3D printers can always bring objects out of the imagination into the real, physical world, and then into the hands of students for their motivation, inspection, analysis, and more. Apart from 3D printing, the Snapmaker 3D printer enables students to combine laser engraving and CNC carving into a 3-in-1 machine, making it ideal for education. Now the company is launching special back-to-school deals with up to 20% off from September 6th to September 20th, 2022.
Create with more freedom
Snapmaker 3D printers aren’t just limited to 3D printing. The 3D Printing Module can be swapped out with the included Laser Module and CNC Module. For students with various needs for 3D printed models, etch designs, or sculptures, Snapmaker 3-in-1 3D printers convey ideas and facilitate STEAM education better than any other things with a hands-on approach.
Kazuyuki Mito, associate professor at the Department of Informatics, Graduate School of Informatics and Engineering, the University of Electro-Communications, used a Snapmaker 3D printer to create physical guide maps.
Immerse expandability: Snapmaker is also committed to providing continuous upgrades such as the 10W laser module & rotary module and add-ons like enclosure & air purifier for even more inventive possibilities. A Snapmaker dual extrusion 3D printing module will be released this month.
Students are able to learn to use three digital manufacturing technologies with one single machine in the classroom, saving a lot of space compared to three different machines. The Snapmaker 3D printers support a wide range of materials, such as PLA and ABS, and engrave on or cut basswood, leather, brick, slate, stainless steel, and more, further inspiring creativity and encouraging problem-solving skills.
Manufacturing on Demand
More STEM advantages
Snapmaker offers a set of practical materials like video tutorials, quick start guides, and user manuals for beginners to get started. Besides, Snapmaker academy also regularly updates a series of how-to articles to further facilitate 3D printing learning.
The integrated software Snapmaker Luban allows complete control over 3D printing, laser engraving or cutting, and CNC carving. Utilizing the three features is made as easy as clicking a few buttons. Luban provides computer programming and computer software design services for various types of people who like DIY and craft. In addition, Luban provides software update and maintenance services for 3D printers manufactured by Snapmaker.
Snapmaker 3D printers applications
With multiple functions, premium quality, and user-centric services, Snapmaker 3D printers now can be found in many education industry segments, including universities & colleges, and even primary schools.
Kazuyuki Mito, associate professor at the Department of Informatics, Graduate School of Informatics and Engineering, the University of Electro-Communications, used a Snapmaker 3D printer to create physical guide maps – Braille blocks that can be understood by people with visual impairments through touching. He said: “It will lead to a solution by having more people know and understand visually impaired people through 3D printing, and by actually creating sculptures aimed at visually impaired people. I would be happy if 3D printers will continue to be used in such places to support people with disabilities in the future. ”Next, he plans to hold on-site classes for elementary school students to experience manufacturing using Snapmaker 3D printers and CAD software.
The Central Christian Academy (CCA) is a ministry of the Central Christian Church that partners with the Christian home and church to educate and equip children to reach their full academic, physical and spiritual potential in K12 education in Jesus Christ. They offer students an updated space, the Innovation Center, to create, collaborate, learn, build, and demolish. In their 3D printer lab, they used Snapmaker 3D printers for children to print the items they like. According to CCA WICHITA, they were very excited to introduce the Snapmaker 3D printer in their teaching and said “thanks for helping us create luggage tags, playground models, and more 3D printing fun.”
