ROBOTS AND 3D PRINTERS
Go to the formEquipment description
Iris Lab offers companies, entrepreneurs and educational centres specialised equipment for the development of digital skills at different levels. The centre has a wide range of tools, including educational robots such as MBOT, LEGO Learning System kits, UGOT from Ubtech and a humanoid robot, as well as several state-of-the-art 3D printers also for different levels of digital readiness.
Objectives and Benefits:
- Hands-On Technology Training: The equipment facilitates hands-on learning in areas such as programming, robotics and rapid prototyping using 3D printing
- Development of Digital Talent: It seeks to promote interest in technological careers among young people and improve the digital skills of workers.
- Business Application: 3D printers allow companies to create prototypes in an agile and economical way, optimising product development processes.
Dedalo Foundation
This centre focuses on democratising access to cutting-edge technologies, allowing individuals and organisations to explore and develop innovative solutions. Iris Lab positions itself as a catalyst for digital transformation, promoting the development of skills and the creation of projects with social and economic impact.
Equipment keys
Educational activities, research projects and technological projects are the most common uses for this type of equipment. These are audiences that seek to inform other groups about the possibilities of technology (linking here with STEM movements). Also, companies that want to delve deeper into areas of automation for certain parts of their processes, or that simply want to experiment with aspects such as 3D creation for certain exclusive pieces.
The user pays to guarantee the sustainability of the equipment and consequently of the service whereby it can be used by third parties. What is collected covers part of the expenses related to consumables, parts that wear, small repairs, etc.
The transfer of this equipment is temporary, and the final duration will depend on the project in question. Experimenting with a small additive manufacturing test can take a few hours, using these robots as part of the development of a collaborative project can take weeks or even months.
It depends, the 3D printers are fixed and cannot be moved, so if you want to use them you will have go to the Dédalo Foundation facilities. However, other equipment such as robotics kits for children can be taken to other places (for example classrooms to work with educational centres).

Maintenance and revision of the equipment
The Dédalo Foundation staff are responsible for carrying out regular preventive and corrective reviews and maintenance, to detect and correct small breakdowns that may arise.
What if there are problems?
The person who receives the material is responsible for any problem or damage to the equipment. You must therefore notify it as soon as possible and bear the possible repair costs.
Do I need training to use this equipment?
Yes, basic training is necessary to use the equipment with guarantees and to achieve the best possible performance.
