Aurora College is opening the Arts, Crafts, & Technology Micro-Manufacturing Centre (ACTMC) in Inuvik, Northwest Territories, in January 2019, and has applied for a NSERC Technology Access Centre Grant to fund this initiative. The ACTMC will provide space, equipment, and technical support as fee-for-service to local businesses focused on the development of cultural products for sale. These businesses, typically local artists and craftspeople operating as sole proprietorships, will be working with the college on applied research questions of safety, tooling, and methods for the use of traditional materials (for example, bone and antler) with micro-manufacturing equipment. Aurora College developed this centre to provide needed facilities and services after developing the Merging Arts & Crafts with Technology & Manufacturing course, which trained regional artists and craftspeople in Adobe Illustrator and 3D modelling software and in the use of 3D printers, milling machines, laser engravers, and silk screening to produce market-ready products. ****The equipment requested in this proposal will add new technologies to Aurora College's inventory for research into traditional materials use, and will address bottlenecks with existing equipment that is in use at the college.****

奥罗拉学院将于2019年1月在西北地区的因努维克开设艺术、手工艺和技术微制造中心(ACTMC)，并已申请NSERC技术接入中心赠款来资助这一倡议。ACTMC将向专注于文化产品开发的当地企业提供场地、设备和技术支持，作为收费服务。这些企业，通常是以独资形式经营的当地艺术家和工匠，将与该学院合作，在微型制造设备中使用传统材料(例如骨骼和鹿角)的安全、工具和方法等应用研究问题。奥罗拉学院在开发了将工艺美术与技术与制造相结合的课程后，开发了这个中心，以提供所需的设施和服务，该课程对当地艺术家和工匠进行Adobe Illustrator和3D建模软件的培训，并使用3D打印机、铣床、激光雕刻机和丝网来生产市场上可用的产品。*本提案中要求的设备将为奥罗拉学院的库存增加新技术，用于研究传统材料的使用，并将解决学院现有设备的瓶颈问题。*
