The two programs use inexpensive 3D printers in a number of courses. A newly-established 3D-printing lab includes: nine inexpensive 3D printers (two MakerBot Replicator 2,three MakerBot Replicator 2X, two UP Plus, one Thing-O-Matic, and one Replicator Z18) basedon Fused Deposition Modeling technology, one inexpensive 3D laser scanner (Next Engine 3Dscanner HD), one 3D printer filament extruder (Extrusionbot EB), one plastic shredder(FilaMaker mini XXL shredder), and 3D pens from three different manufacturers.

At EastTennessee State University, in the Department of Technology, faculty agrees on theinterpretation of the rules and regulations. In addition to evaluating the dossier, thedepartment’s role is to advise the applicant of suggested changes and/or modifications thatshould be made.
