SLA101: Learning to use resin 3D printers

SLA101: Learning to use resin 3D printers In-Person

Thanks for your interest in SLA 101: Learning to use resin 3D printers!

This is the first SLA, or resin, 3D printing workshop for the University of Wyoming Engineering Student Innovation Center (EERBSIC) makerspace, and teaches you how to use the Formlabs Form 2's and Form 3's at our state-of-the-art makerspace! You'll need to attend this course before you can use any of our SLA 3D printers at the EERB SIC unsupervised. SLA 101 covers makerspace basics, 3D printing applications, Formlabs Form 2 and Form 3 resin 3D printer anatomy and operation, including materials and software. By the end of the 60 minute workshop, you should have a firm understanding of:

  • What materials can be used by our Formlabs SLA 3D printers
  • How the hardware and printers work together, and why it’s important to know about both.
  • The workflow and software required to use the SLA 3D printers easily and effectively. 
  • How to post-process resin parts

Please make sure to enroll in the Makerspace Badge Training Program to ensure you receive a badge at the end of this course. You can use your badges to track what you've learned, show potential employers, and (after earning enough badges) even receive fun perks like discounted or free material use, after-hours access, and even an invitation to participate and vote as part of the Makerspace Community Subcommittee. Almost all of our equipment requires training and badges before use.
