3D Printing

Last Review: September 2025

To best serve the Florida Tech community, the Library adheres to the following 3D Printing policies:

3D printing is available to Florida Tech faculty, students, and staff on a first-come, first-served basis.
3D printing is free for students. Large print jobs or those that require special materials may be referred to L3Harris Student Design Center.
Only designated Library staff will have hands-on access to the 3D printers.
To print an object, complete the 3D Printing Form and email it with your file to gallagherm@fit.edu. Print jobs will be performed in the order they are received.
Due to limited staff and hardware resources, the Library cannot guarantee specific delivery times. Usually, 2 business days (Monday – Friday) are required from the time of submission.
Printed items must be picked up in the 3D printing lab by the person who made the request. All items are in labeled bags.
Printed items not picked up within 7 business days from the notification of completion will become property of the Library.
Use of the 3D printers is strictly limited to lawful purposes. The Library reserves the right to refuse any request to create material that is prohibited by local, state or federal law; unsafe, harmful, dangerous, or poses an immediate threat to the well-being of others; obscene or otherwise inappropriate for the university environment; subject to copyright, patent, or trademark protection; or likely to lead to legal action against the university, its employees, or its students.

For questions, contact Martin Gallagher, DSL Support Manager, via telephone or email at (321) 674-8638 or email gallagherm@fit.edu.
