Video Introduction to Equipment in PROTOLab

Including general rules, safety briefing and tutorials on physical setup at the machines.

This video lecture set will be followed by a practical session planned by your educator or Labtools, and finally it will require you to pass a written multiple-choice test. If successful, you will have 24h access to our prototyping facilities.

If you wish to take this PROTOLab tutorial outside of a regular lab course or as a part of your programme, please thoroughly review the video material and contact labtools@cs.au.dk for a practical session. If you are getting this tutorial through a course, a pratical session will be automatically planned.

The video set contains six videos, where video 1-5 are absolutely mandatory to participate in a practical session, where the machinery will be tried on your (supervised) own.

Suggested pauses in longer videos:

Laser cutting theory video: Studies show that some students prefer videos of 8-10 minute length for videos for "Flipped Classroom"-teaching. You can pause this video and have a break at 07:08 where it changes from theory, rules, and materials to a “how to”-guide.

3D printing theory video: Studies show that some students prefer videos of 8-10 minute length for videos for "Flipped Classroom"-teaching. You can pause this video and have a break at 05:38 where the video changes from theory, materials and software to model preparation settings. You can also have a break at 14:50 where the video changes from preparation settings and printing tips to "Good Habits" and additional info.
