Advanced Prototyping Center at Wright Lab
272 Whitney, Wright Lab, 1st fl.
About the core
At the Yale Wright Laboratory Advanced Prototyping Center (APC), our mission is to provide a fabrication facility and design support for custom instrumentation. We have designed instruments and parts for groups across campus. We also aim to help researchers develop design skills and educate them about modern prototyping techniques. The APC complements other research shops at Yale that provide traditional machining services and training. The APC is part of Yale’s instrumentation initiative and the future Advanced Instrumentation Development Center (AIDC).
Visit
Project consultation and support are available. The APC is located on the first floor of Wright Lab in room WL105, which is located at 272 Whitney Avenue, New Haven. Appointments are required; for more information and access to the APC, please email Craig Miller.

Directions to Wright LabAcknowledgment
If you use APC facilities in your research, we request that you acknowledge us in your written publications or grant applications as follows:
“This research made use of the Advanced Prototyping Center at Yale University.”
We request that a citation or a copy of the publication be sent to the director for our records. This information is important to help support our mission and to demonstrate the need for the equipment and staff expertise within the APC. APC staff recognition (such as co-authorship) on projects requiring a large investment of time, or a significant intellectual contribution by the APC will be discussed on an individual basis.
