Javelin's SOLIDWORKS integrated 3D software, curriculum, and lessons make design development easy to learn, easy to teach, and exciting to use.

Our education industry technology is designed for:

  • Software for Researchers

    The SOLIDWORKS Research License gives researchers the latest in SOLIDWORKS design and science engineering technology, while connecting them with other users.

  • Software for Educators

    Featuring software plus a full curriculum and interactive courseware, SOLIDWORKS® Education Edition is an all-inclusive resource for teaching 3D mechanical CAD, electrical CAD, design validation (FEA/CFD), and communication.

  • Software for Students

    With SOLIDWORKS skills, students have a clear advantage in engineering and industrial design job markets. The easy-to-use SOLIDWORKS Student Edition lets students sharpen their skills outside the classroom as they learn to design better products.

3D Printing in Education

Additive Manufacturing Solutions

Stratasys 3D Printers empower educators to bring innovative technology into the classroom which inspires students to reach new levels of thinking.

Our additive solutions allows educators to:

  • Provide a Hands-on Experience

    Using 3D printing is an exciting alternative to virtual modeling because students can actually see, hold and interact with their projects.

  • Offer STEAM Curriculum

    An excellent match for STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts and Mathematics) curriculum projects at associate, undergraduate and graduate levels. Educators can increase engagement with exciting classroom projects.

  • Provide Industry Experience

    The same 3D Printers in use at academic and technical institutions are also used by your students’ future employers, like major manufacturers Magna, Honda, and Boeing.

Technology for Education

Provide a clear advantage in engineering and industrial design job markets

In today’s competitive job market, professionals don’t just design—they simulate, innovate, visualize,  communicate, and prototype to advance new ideas and their careers.

Javelin's Academic software solutions deliver powerful, engaging, hands-on software to help students and researchers understand and develop designs for the real world:

The use of 3D printing in the classroom will help students become college- and career-ready.

Why work with us

Javelin-Cimetrix Solutions is a leading provider of professional grade Additive Manufacturing (3D Printing) solutions serving academic and research institutions across Canada. We support all levels of education and the only Gold Level Stratasys Education Partner in Canada.

From middle schools to Universities, from community spaces to research labs, our objective is to provide the correct technology accompanied with ongoing support, and applications training to ensure long-term successful implementation of 3D Printing. Our ongoing commitment to education includes participation at many levels from intern placements to in-kind training, from team sponsorship to curriculum development.

Additive Manufacturing Machines & Materials

3D printing enriches learning in virtually any discipline

Javelin-Cimetrix offers a powerful range of 3D printing capabilities, with PolyJet technology for multi-material 3D printing and impressively detailed surfaces, and FDM technology for durable parts in production-grade thermoplastic.

Our special education / research bundles provide affordable, clean, easy to use solutions using the same materials used by industry. Stratasys 3D Printers do not have the steep learning curves and complex programming requirements of Computer Numerical Control (CNC) modeling. You print right from a CAD file, with the click of a button.

Why Stratasys 3D Printing for Education?

Recommended Education Machine

Stratasys F123 Series System

Smarter Prototyping for the classroom

The Stratasys F123 series offers educators new and improved features to save time and material. Incredible ease of use with both the hardware and the software means students don’t need special 3D printing expertise.

Super quiet and classroom friendly. Reliable, consistent 3D printing with material made from a renewable resource ensures less waste.

PLA 3D Printed Rocket
Economic 3D Printing

Many Stratasys 3D printers feature fast-draft mode to produce design concepts quickly and economically. Students can print twice as fast as standard build mode while consuming just a third of the material on average. For even more efficiency and savings, choose PLA. A thermoplastic made from renewable resources.

More Ways to Make

The Stratasys 3D printers offer a range of strength and layer resolution options to suit almost any learning application. 3D printers offer different materials, along with an easy-to-remove soluble support.

Its ability to accurately reproduce virtually any shape in real production plastics both inspires creativity and encourages problem solving. The versatility of 3D printing effortlessly adapts to many different classroom and student needs.

Featured Case Study

3D Printing Helps Students Create the Missing Piece

Toronto’s York University School of Engineering 3D print their prototypes and realize a 30 to 50% cost saving over traditional CNC prototyping.

Having a 3D printer in their lab has inspired a new way of approaching projects for students.
