Entina Gives Away Free 3D Printers to U.S. Schools Through Back-to-School Program

Entina is sending 3D printers into U.S. classrooms. The company launched a back-to-school program on August 28 that gives selected K-12 schools a free Tina2C 3D printer, a four-color filament set, and basic setup support.

The Tina2C arrives fully assembled and prints via cloud app, SD card, or Cura. Its 100 x 100 x 100 mm build volume keeps it compact on a desk. Nine-point auto bed leveling and a flexible spring-steel plate make first prints straightforward for beginners.

Schools apply through a short form on Entina's website. The company reviews submissions based on classroom needs and available inventory. Selected schools hear back by email with next steps. The program runs until September 28, 2026.

This is not Entina's first push into education, but it is the first time the brand is giving hardware away at scale. The Tina2C normally sells for under $200, so the giveaway represents a real investment in STEM access for schools that could not otherwise afford the equipment.

The printer supports Wi-Fi, Type-C, and cloud slicing workflows. Entina bundles project guides and learning resources with the kit so teachers do not have to design a curriculum from scratch. Participating schools may also be invited to share student projects and classroom feedback with the company.
