1. Website use and acceptable conduct
PrintAcademy 3D provides information about 3D-printing courses, school lab kits and related services for schools, educators and other users in South Africa. You may browse the site for lawful, personal or institutional reference, but you may not use it in a way that disrupts access, interferes with security, or attempts to copy, scrape or alter content without written permission from the operator, Astros Marketing (Pty) Ltd.
You agree not to submit false information, misuse the enquiry form, or use the site for unlawful activity. Where a form asks for details about a school, training need or lab requirement, please provide accurate information so that our team can respond properly.
2. Course information and training enquiries
Course details on this site are provided to help users understand the available training options, such as teacher introduction, learner foundations, CAD basics, printer operations, maintenance basics and custom group workshops. Class formats, schedules and content may vary by location, group size and practical requirements. A course outline is not a binding promise of a specific lesson order or outcome.
We may update training descriptions from time to time to reflect classroom practice, equipment changes or administrative needs. If a school in Cape Town, Stellenbosch, Johannesburg or another region requests a tailored workshop, the final scope will depend on the enquiry submitted through the contact page.
- Course listings are for general guidance only.
- Printed examples, classroom exercises and handouts may differ between sessions.
- Attendance or participation does not create any guarantee of future results.
3. School lab kits, setup advice and safety
Information about school 3D-printing lab kits is intended to help educational institutions plan suitable spaces for classroom use. Any setup guidance should be read together with the school’s own rules, municipal requirements and internal safety procedures. Schools remain responsible for deciding where equipment will be installed, who may operate it, and how access will be supervised.
General safety reminders apply at all times. Users should keep hands clear of moving parts, avoid touching hot surfaces, store filament and tools properly, and ensure the room is well ventilated. Teachers should supervise learners during operation, especially where younger students are involved or where load-shedding, heat or coastal humidity may affect the room conditions.
- Switch equipment off before cleaning or maintenance.
- Keep liquids away from printers and power connections.
- Follow school policies for tool storage and learner supervision.
