FABLAB - Fabrication Laboratory


An environment designed to stimulate the creativity of our students, this digital manufacturing lab is geared towards innovation and prototyping development. The use of opensource softwares is also stimulated and routinely workshops on arduino and 3D printing are offered in the lab.

Located at the Mechanical Engineering Department of the Rio de Janeiro State University the lab has two 3D printers and one laser machine. The equipment is available to the students for the development of engineering projects and prototypes. Hence, microcontrollers such as Arduino are available to the users for automation projects.
