Using the 3D printers
There are two 3D printers for the students to use in Hervanta. With the printers you can make for example models for your studies. Print models should be in .stl or .obj form. We use PLA plastic as a printing material.
You can print during Hervanta’s service hours Monday to Friday from 9 am to 5 pm. All printing must stop at 4.45 so the printers can cool down before closing. You’ll find detailed instructions for printing beside the printers and also the staff is willing to guide you.
Using the virtual reality devices
Tampere University students and staff can use virtual reality devices at the Library’s unit in Hervanta. VR devices can be booked during Hervanta service hours Monday to Friday from 9 am to 5 pm. One booking is two hours.
When your booking starts, borrow a key to the device cabinet from the Hervanta customer service. You need a personal Steam account to use the devices. Steam account is free and we recommend that you get it before your first booking. You’ll find detailed instructions for using the devices in the VR room.
