In order to use the Trotec Speedy 300, you will need to come with your vectorised cutting file in .svg or .pdf format (CAD or graphics editing software such as Illustrator, Photoshop, etc.) and prepare only one file per sheet.

For student architects, pleaser refer to our laser cutting instruction leaflet (in French).

You can also take part in one of our training courses or come and practice your drawing at the Fablab.
It will then be necessary to run this file through the proprietary TROTEC JobControl software to start the cutting/engraving process.

All you have to do is let your imagination run wild and the machine will do the rest!

Features

• Power: 100 W
• Part volume: 729 mm x 433 mm x 200 mm
• Materials for cutting of engraving: plexiglas, wood, textile, paper, glass, cardboard, etc.
• Thickness according to materials: MDF/CP/PMMA = 10 mm, Rough wood = depending on the type, Glass/stone: engraving only

Only the first 15 / 30 minutes will be charged at the time of booking. The balance is to be paid on site.

The 3D printing technology used at Fablab Descartes is FDM (Fused Deposition Modelling).
This technique consists in melting a filament of synthetic material, usually ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) or PLA (Polyactic Acid) type plastic through a nozzle. A small wire of molten plastic with a diameter of about a tenth of a millimetre is deposited and forms the different layers of the 3D model.
In order to use these machines you must come with a 3D model created with CAD software (Solidworks, Blender, Freecad, Fusion360, Onshape, etc.) in .stl or .obj format.
You can also take part in one of our training courses or come and practice at Fablab to create your 3D model.
You will then have to pass your file through the slicer of the machine in question (Simplify3D, Cura or Slic3r) to generate the Gcode which will be interpreted by the machine.

Machines and features
All our 3D printers have a heated platen to improve the hold of the part on its support.
