Germany's first publicly accessible 3D printing factory opened in Leipzig - a place for knowledge and inspiration
Germany has the first publicly accessible "glass 3D factory"
In Leipzig, the first publicly accessible and company -managed "Glass 3D Factory" was opened in Germany today. The Leipzig Rapidobject, a pioneer in 3D printing, would like to impart further knowledge of the fascinating technology on over 1,000 sqm area of small and medium-sized companies, students, trainees, students and job seekers. At the same time, interested parties should be helped to plan their own objects and print them on site.The benefits for the community
The glass 3D factory offers a variety of highlights that enable training, workshops and practical applications. This includes, among other things, an information and showroom in which printed components, exhibits and consumer goods can be presented and experienced. In addition, training rooms are available for workshops as well as jobs with 3D software and 3D printer for practical application. Visitors can also visit Rapidobject's professional production and follow live how prototypes, components and series are created. Designers also have the opportunity to exhibit in the 3D ambience and companies can use the Glass 3D Factory as an event location. The Saxony Association also plans on site to illustrate the importance of this technology for their competitiveness.
Fix knowledge deficits
The opening of the glass 3D factory is part of a Germany-wide offensive to fix the knowledge and application deficits through technology in industry. In addition to specialist knowledge in online webinars, Rapidobject also offers a consulting service, which in particular is intended to help small and medium-sized companies professionally operate and successfully use 3D printing departments. Because while other countries are already promoting state-funded expansion in this area, many companies in Germany still do not know about the advantages of 3D printing.
Insight into the future technology
The glass 3D factory is not only aimed at companies, but also to students. Rapidobject is known for its development creativity and is currently talking to the state of Saxony about a school-capable educational offer in the area of 3D printing. The aim is to strengthen the creativity of children and adolescents in the technical environment and to give incentives for professional orientation.
