The MakerBot Sketch Sprint sets a new standard in classroom productivity with its impressive print speed of 250 mm/s. That’s a staggering 500% increase over the industry standard of 50 mm/s. This rapid speed allows educators to streamline their projects and maximize classroom time. With the ability to produce high-quality prints faster than ever, teachers can effectively manage multiple assignments and engage students in hands-on learning experiences. Whether it’s for collaborative projects, prototypes, or demonstrations, the Sketch Sprint empowers educators to keep the momentum going in the classroom without the downtime typically associated with 3D printing
Safety is prioritized with a fully enclosed design that creates a secure printing environment for students, minimizing risks during operation.
Supported by industry safety certifications and comprehensive user education resources, educators can feel confident and supported throughout their 3D printing journey.
The enclosed structure protects students from moving parts and reduces exposure to hot surfaces.
The integrated filtration system helps to maintain clean air quality, making it safer for students during printing by capturing particles and odors during printing.
This feature allows teachers to control access to the printer, preventing unauthorized use and ensuring that only trained individuals operate the equipment.
The Sketch Sprint is compliant with a range of safety certifications that meet rigorous standards for educational environments.
The Sprint printer uses PLA and Tough PLA, which are safe, easy to work with, and less likely to emit harmful fumes, adding an extra layer of safety during printing.
MakerBot provides detailed safety guidelines and training materials to help teachers implement safe operating procedures.

Industrial 3-D printing is going mainstream in a big way. Executives and many engineers have realized that technology has moved well beyond prototyping, rapid tooling, trinkets, and toys. “Additive manufacturing” has created durable and safe products that have revolutionized the corporate culture.
Some of the numerous companies using 3-D printing to ramp up production are GE (jet engines, medical devices, and home appliance parts), Lockheed Martin and Boeing (aerospace and defense), Aurora Flight Sciences (unmanned aerial vehicles), Invisalign (dental devices), Google (consumer electronics), and LUXeXcel (lenses for light-emitting diodes, or LEDs). With all the new developments, 3-D printing has emerged from its niche status and become a viable and reliable alternative to conventional manufacturing processes and applications.
Companies are loving the options because the range of printable materials has expanded so much and continues to expand today. The media has grown from plastics to photosensitive resins such as ceramics, cement, glass, numerous metals and metal alloys, and thermoplastic composites infused with carbon nano tubes and fibers. Superior economics will eventually convince those resisting. Although the initial cost may be higher, the greater flexibility afforded by additive manufacturing means that total costs are substantially lower.
Companies have so much more to offer because fabricating an object layer by layer, according to a digital “blueprint” downloaded to a printer, allows for customization and designs of greater intricacy without limit.
Companies can consider the strategic implications as a new ecosystem begins to form around the new realities of 3-D printing. The opportunities are endless, from cost savings to original designs. The time for strategic thinking is now!

New Century has always prided itself on its bright and welcoming classrooms, where natural light streams in and fosters a vibrant learning environment. However, with the growing need for enhanced security, they faced a challenge: how to create a visual barrier without compromising the open atmosphere and connection with the outside world?
Their solution? Vitaliti 901A window perf. This innovative material struck the perfect balance between security and openness. By covering all windows and doors with the perforated film, they achieved a strategic visual barrier, making it difficult for anyone outside to see in while allowing students and teachers to maintain clear outward views.
What truly sets this project apart is the way they embraced the creative potential of this media. By using an HP DesignJet poster printer, they transformed the window film into a canvas for their school’s brand identity. Vibrant graphics and messaging now adorn the windows, creating a visually appealing and cohesive learning space that seamlessly integrates security measures with their existing design aesthetic.
The result is a classroom environment that prioritizes both safety and well-being. Teachers and students can enjoy the benefits of natural light and unobstructed outward views, while the visual barrier provides valuable peace of mind.

Our customers love the Keencut Evolution3. The feedback has been excellent, with users telling us how dramatically the Evolution3 has improved their productivity and finishing quality.
From our experience, the Evolution3 achieves perfect cutting with minimal effort, making cutting a much more comfortable, safe, and easily repeatable task. It is the only benchtop range with the Keencut Lift-and-Hover system, and this, combined with other unique features, dramatically increases production speed.
The key to the Evolution3s performance is the speed and accuracy of aligning the materials offered by the unique Lift-and-Hover system and sightline stip. Keencut tested the Evolution3 cutting 10mm foam board against cutting the same material by hand with a knife and safety rule. The Evolution3 cut the foam board four times faster than cutting by hand. The boards were perfectly identical and finished cleanly. There were no mistakes and no waste. The cutting process resulted in no dust or debris, so there was nothing to stick to other materials or damage expensive printing machines in the workshop. The hand knife cut boards had a poor, unprecise, jagged, and uneven finish. The poor quality increased the possibility of costly mistakes and additional waste.
The Evolution3 also cut banner material 1.5 times faster than cutting by hand. As well as the increased speed, the significant advantage was the quality of the finish. The banners were perfectly aligned and cleanly cut. The production of identical banners was incredibly easy, and there were no mistakes and no waste.
The Evolution3s ball bearing mounted cutting head ensures user comfort, giving an easy, smooth, and perfectly clean cut. Everything is designed for accuracy, safety, and speed.
Contact us for more information or arrange a visit to try the Keencut Evolution3 for yourself.
