Construct3D 2018

While 3D printing continues to grow and gain traction for educational institutions across the world, logistical challenges still plague programs starting and expanding today. It's difficult to dedicate time and resources to tracking student usage and training machine specific workflows. This is the problem 3DPrinterOS set out to solve in providing a single platform for educators to offer students campus-wide 3d printing. Focusing on examples from our work with other top universities, we will discuss how to collect and report program data, integrate seamlessly into existing IT infrastructure and maximize access to limited printer resources.
