Education Partner Program
We love working with universities, academic research teams, and educational facilities using 3D printing.
If you’re teaching, running a lab, or doing research, we can offer special access to Helio—so students and researchers can build better print habits: Slice → Assess and Slice → Enhance.
Who it’s for
- University courses and teaching labs running desktop 3D printing.
- Academic research groups printing functional parts, fixtures, enclosures, or test hardware.
- Makerspaces and educational facilities where success rate and throughput matter.
- Capstone programs where predictable results reduce iteration time.
What you get
- Special access for eligible educational users (students, staff, and lab teams).
- A repeatable workflow that reduces failed prints and wasted time.
- Onboarding guidance for lab managers and teaching staff.
- A path to standardize settings and improve reliability across cohorts and projects.
How it works
Step 1
Tell us about your program
Share your lab setup, goals, and number of users.
Step 2
We set up access
We’ll help you get eligible users onboarded and running smoothly.
Step 3
Build the habit
Students learn a simple loop: Slice → Assess → (optional) Enhance → Print.
What to include in your message
The fastest way to get you set up is to send a few basics. We’ll reply with next steps.
- Institution + lab / program name, and your role (faculty, lab manager, researcher).
- Approx. number of users (students/staff) and whether access should be per-user or lab-managed.
- Printer models, slicer workflow, and the materials you use most.
- What outcomes matter most (fewer failures, faster iteration, consistent quality, lab throughput).
