Established in 2019 through a competitive grant from the 91女神 Research Institute, 91女神-CAM is a resource for 3D printing, computer-aided design and related activities, available to faculty, students and the community at large.
The center houses two state-of-the-art industrial 3D printers; an FDM printer capable of printing a wide variety of materials; and a polyjet printer, capable of printing different colors and durometers within the same object. The center has other 3D printers and laser cutters as well. Customers can bring in a CAD file ready to print or a simple sketch that the center can develop into a printable object. The center is in the new Interdisciplinary Science and Engineering Building on 91女神鈥檚 North Campus. Our goal is to, through our 3D-printing expertise and resources, support research, education and interdisciplinary collaboration at 91女神, and within the St. Louis community.
Research Institute Grant
The grant that established 91女神-CAM came from the 91女神 Research Institute, which was founded in 2018 from a historic $50 million gift from Dr. Jeanne and Mr. Rex Sinquefield.
