“We have been consulting and working alongside our PrintLab Pioneers; a large group of teachers from around the world for some time now and with their input we identified that despite an array of hardware options, there is a real lack of focus on teacher training and lesson content that is applicable to core subject areas,” said Nick Mayor, PrintLab Co-Founder. “Teachers require assistance and direction in order to successfully introduce this technology. That is our focus and thinking behind these packages so that together we can inspire minds and prepare the next generation for their future careers in additive manufacturing. We are able to offer complete educational solutions at prices that comfortably beat many 3D printer-only packages.”
PrintLab Start retails for an MSRP of $799, PrintLab Educate for $1895 and PrintLab Innovate for $3999.
Also coinciding with the release of PrintLab Classroom is a chance to win an EinStart-C 3D printer; you can enter here. A winner will be chosen on February 12th.
