DUKE UNIVERSITY CASE STUDY

“In the first four weeks of operation our students have accumulated 1478 hours of 3D printing across 601 print jobs. We did this using only seven printers and a small student support staff. 3DPrinterOS allowed us to maximize output while minimizing input and at the same gave a tool to our makers that is simple, easy to use, and requires a minimum amount of training.” – Chip Bobbert

Before 3DPrinterOS – Print lab average less than 50 hours a week of printing. School required multiple administrators to manually monitor, start and track jobs. Less than 20 students had access.

With 3D PrinterOS – 15000+ hours of printing per week, our university was able to add over 100 additional printers. 5000+ students have access currently and no additional administrators needed!
