The AMP Lab is a collaboration of Grand Rapids Community College, Western Michigan University and the private industry that addresses the shortage of skilled trades and engineering professionals. The two-story, 15,000 SF facility joins prototyping, training, and small-scale manufacturing with the opportunity for individuals to earn college credits to be used toward a degree or certification. The facility includes 3D printers and scanners, a CAD/CAM lab, plasma cutter, laser cutter, welding station, metrology equipment, and prototyping tools.
