Estia Students visit the TCT event and Land Rover

On Wednesday 26^th September as part of their Rapid Manufacturing Applications Module, the Estia students visited both the Time Compression Technologies (TCT) exhibition at the NEC, Birmingham and the Land Rover manufacturing plant at Solihull.

At the TCT event, students witnessed the latest 3D laser scanning equipment, Rapid Prototyping process equipment and 3D modeling software.
