The Hudson Valley Advanced Manufacturing Center hosts the 3D printing lab on campus at SUNY New Paltz. The 3D printing lab is a campus wide entity that is open to the entire campus, whether you’re an art or engineering major or not, for a small fee to cover the costs of the materials. The lab is home to the most sophisticated 3D printing technology in the country. Its service center supports campus courses, mostly in the art and engineering fields. Daniel Freedman, the Dean of the School of Science and Engineering and the director of the HVAMC program, says the printing lab serves purposes beyond campus courses. With over one hundred customers, the lab creates 3D prints for a large range of individuals, from manufacturers to entrepreneurs to artists. The lab has also partnered with other medical professionals to make models used for educational purposes or visual references before a complicated surgery. The lab is usually open from 9 AM to 5 PM during weekdays and run by its workers and interns, which is located within the Smiley Art Building. More information about the 3D printing lab, including updates, a timeline since the lab’s opening, and an online request form to create within the lab, can be found on www.newpaltz.edu/hvamc.
