The Digital Fabrication Studio (dFab), is accessible to all enrolled students during regularly scheduled open shop hours.
The 7800 sq foot Digital Fabrication Studio (dFab), located in the Mount Royal Station building, offers a variety of resources for students. The facility includes classroom space, a 16-seat PC computer lab, CNC printing lab and machine/wood shop. Students can utilize equipment such as laser cutters, 3D printers, 3D scanners, CNC routers, and more. Keep in mind, dFab is a hands-on environment and prior knowledge is required for proper use of the equipment.
