Objet price changes: | We now receive Objet materials from Stratasys at a reduced cost. We're passing this savings on to you. We're also reducing material choice to clear. This removes the excessive purge required for material changes. This further brings the cost down to $0.30/gram from the previous $0.50/gram. You'll see the impact immediately. |

With very few stipulations, the AOC’s services and facilities are available to currently enrolled students, active faculty and staff at SAIC; some services are open to alumni as well. Please see the individual resource sections for details.
All users must attend an certification prior to using the laser cutters or 3D scanners. The devices are self-service and are available for use during regular operating hours. See the Laser Access Policy or 3D Scanner Access Policy page for details.
Certifications are available online and can take about 30 to 45 minutes to complete. Certifications are good for two calendar years at both the Advanced Output Center and the Columbus Digital Fabrication Studio.
