Engineering Fabrication Laboratory
The Engineering Fabrication Laboratory (also known as Fab Lab) is equipped with an array of equipment that are suitable for students’ prototyping work in their design projects. With 3D printers, a laser cutting machine, and a range of cutting and drilling machines, Fab Lab allows students to practice and hone their hands-on skills. Furthermore, Fab Lab aims to be a place where students in NUS can come and work on multi-disciplinary projects, and translate their ideas and research into working prototypes.

Milling Machines
 |
Rong Fu S5 CNC 3-Axis Milling MachineA CNC Milling Machine that is mainly used for rapid and precise machining of small parts.
|
Scroll Saw
 |
Royal Mac S22 Scroll Sawing MachineA light duty sawing machine capable of cutting small workpieces. It is a small electric saw which can be used to cut intricate curves and make interior cuts in wood and soft thin materials. The fineness of its blade allows it to cut more delicately compared to a normal jigsaw power tool.
