The Hudson Valley Advanced Manufacturing Center (HVAMC) at The State University of New York at New Paltz (SUNY New Paltz) has both much needed acronyms, and a new additive manufacturing superlab. While makerspaces popping up on university campuses are not an uncommon occurrence, the HVAMC is a special case – it has received accreditation from 3D printing giant Stratasys.
