Digital Inductions E26

If you have been looking to get hands-on with some of the fabrication equipment at the University of Brighton, there are a couple of upcoming sessions that might be useful. The university is hosting Digital Inductions E26 at Mithras House, specifically focusing on two core areas: laser cutting and the ATE bureau service for 3D printing. These sessions are designed as a one-hour introduction, covering the basics of how to use the equipment and how the bureau service operates for those who need to get projects off the ground.

The inductions are scheduled for two separate dates in April: Thursday, 9 April 2026, and Thursday, 16 April 2026. On both days, the university is running two identical time slots, one at 10:00 and another at 11:00. Since the venue is Mithras House on Lewes Road, it is fairly accessible if you are already familiar with the university campus layout in Brighton. The sessions are free to attend, though it is worth noting that while the ticket type is listed as 'Standard' and priced as 'Free', these details are subject to the usual operational changes.

Given the technical nature of laser cutting and 3D printing, these inductions are generally aimed at students, professionals, or anyone with a specific interest in manufacturing and design technology. It is a straightforward, practical session rather than a general public event, so it is best suited for those who actually need to use the machinery for their work or studies. If you are planning to head over, Mithras House is located in the BN2 4AT area, which puts you within a short distance of other local spots like The Ceramic House or the Brighton Racecourse if you happen to be in that part of town for the day.
