“Nous utilisons beaucoup l'impression 3D. Ce n'est pas seulement pour les tests, nous l'utilisons aussi pour créer des pièces qui vont directement dans les tunnels du Grand collisionneur de hadrons.”
Le CERN, l'Organisation européenne pour la recherche nucléaire, a été fondé en 1954 et se consacre à l'étude des particules fondamentales qui constituent la matière. Les imprimantes Original Prusa fonctionnent dans tous ses départements, et une partie de ce qu'elles impriment va directement dans le tunnel.
CERN was founded in 1954 to study the fundamental particles that constitute matter, and has since earned several Nobel Prizes.



“3D printing allows scientists and engineers to quickly create prototypes and push the boundaries of what is possible.”
Dina Zimmermann, Structural engineer at IdeaSquare, CERN
Tell us what you are building. We will come back with the machines, the materials and the parts other research groups print first.

Customer story ETH Zurich
The architecture department’s HYTAC programme trains 300+ students a term, and each of them assembles an Original Prusa kit in two days before printing anything. It started as a maintenance problem: the university could fund the machines, but not the people to keep them running.
“I cannot imagine a world without 3D printing. It just would not work!”
