There are 2x 3D Printers in ACW103 (Cage area) that students can use to print prototypes during class time, an Ultimaker and a Bambu X1-Carbon as show below. You can use these printers if you have been given a demonstration by your instructor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you have not been taught how to use the 3D printing machines by your instructor, or you require several copies of a 3D print, contact the AMPD Maker Space: https:\/\/makerspace.ampd.yorku.ca<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

Bambu X1-Carbon Guide<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The following is a step-by-step guide for printing 3D (.stl) objects on the Bambu X1-Carbon 3D Printer using the Bambu software on the iMac in ACW103 Printer Cage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The red-rectangular<\/mark><\/strong> selections within each image indicate what setting needs to be configured using the Bambu software. These are our lab’s default settings using PLA filament and will be set as default. However, follow each step, confirming each setting is correct to ensure a quality print. Click on image for a detailed scaled up image.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The Bambu X1-Carbon connects automatically to the ACW-103-5G<\/strong> WIFI network. Once you have sent your 3D print job, you will see your job on the LCD panel of the Bambu printer settings shown below.<\/p>\n\n\n
