A flexible solution for simple and individual metalworking. It offers founding teams the opportunity to quickly produce customizations or individual parts.
Ideal for manual turning work, such as the production of prototypes or small series. It allows fast and uncomplicated processing.
Cuts materials such as metal, rubber or glass using a sand-water jet. This technology enables clean cuts without thermal stress and expands the possibilities for technical projects or complex shapes.
Cuts metal rods, tubes or profiles precisely and efficiently. This is particularly useful for cutting raw material for further processing steps.
Enables sheet metal to be cut precisely to the desired size. Founding teams can use it to quickly create components for housings, cladding or prototypes.
The folding bench can be used to precisely bend and shape sheet metal, ideal for constructions or individual housings. It enables quick adjustments to be made to prototypes.
These machines smooth surfaces, remove sharp edges or prepare workpieces for further processing.
Drills precise holes in thick or thin materials. Important for projects where components need to be connected or assembled. We can also cut threads accurately and safely.
Forms or joins materials by applying strong pressure. This is ideal for stable connections or testing various materials and structures.
Perfect for deburring small metal parts or polishing surfaces. It ensures a professional finish and saves time during post-processing.
Enables precise milling of wood in complex shapes, ideal for furniture making or creative designs. It can be used to produce prototypes and series.
A powerful machine for straight cutting of wooden panels. Important for furniture construction or all structural projects.
This router enables the processing of edges or the creation of joints. Indispensable for precise woodwork.
Smoothes and chips wood to the desired thickness. Founding teams can use it to prepare unprocessed wood for further processing.
Cuts large wooden panels precisely and efficiently, ideal for preparing panels for the CNC machining center.
Perfect for curved or fine cuts in a wide variety of materials. Creative shapes and details can be realized.
Smooth edges and surfaces, which ensures a high-quality finish. An important basis for professional results or further processing in the paint shop.
Versatile equipment for individual wood projects and flexible customization.
Enable the precise application of paints and varnishes for a high-quality finish. For teams who want to present their products, an attractive design is essential.
Ensures clean working conditions and consistent finishes by filtering paint particles from the air. This is important to ensure professional surfaces for prototypes.
Ideal for working with sensitive electronic components. Indispensable for the development and assembly of modern electronic products.
Precise analysis and testing of electronic components to test functionality or simulate applications.
Perfect for the precise construction or further development of large and small circuits.
Ensures perfect solder joints on PCBs with SMD components. For start-ups that develop electronics series.
Tests electronic components or other products under different environmental conditions. Important for testing products for safety or market readiness.
Easily programmable robots that work safely with humans. Ideal for automation solutions or rapid prototype development in production.
Highly specialized for fast and precise movements, e.g. for assembly or pick-and-place tasks. This helps teams to test and implement industrial processes efficiently.
An intelligent system that automates and optimizes warehouse logistics. Provides our workshop team and all start-ups with plenty of storage space for almost all materials.
Visualize and test projects in virtual environments before they are implemented. This saves resources and facilitates the planning of complex designs.
Different machines for everything from sewing simple textiles to making professional clothing or incorporating technology into textiles.
Customize textiles with logos, patterns or lettering. Perfect for making products or brands unique.
Create textiles or large designs with precise cuts and high-quality print results. Ideal for creative projects and promotional materials.
For fast and safe welding of steel and other metals. Ideal for robust connections in constructions.
Produces precise, clean weld seams, especially for thin materials such as stainless steel.
Provides stability and flexibility during welding to position components precisely and then join them securely.
Cuts metal plates precisely and efficiently with a plasma jet. Particularly useful for complex shapes and constructions made of thicker materials.
Ideal for hardening or processing metals and other materials.
Spacious work areas for creative and technical projects. Our large shared space encourages collaboration and also allows you to work on larger constructions.
All the tools you need are on site and you can store your projects safely. This offers flexibility and optimal organization.
Create team or product photos in studio quality
Use the video equipment to record pitches, explanatory videos or product videos.
Record audio formats such as podcasts or voiceovers to ideally market your start-up.
Use the space with coving and studio lighting to perfectly showcase your products.
Create initial prototypes and MVPs in the shortest possible time to validate your product.
Develop smart solutions for robotics and the Internet of Things.
In our wood and metal workshops, we enable you to produce near-series components
During the various workshops in our Maker Space, you will get to know the different technologies in detail. With the help of our input, you will soon be able to operate the machines in the Maker Space independently.
Prototyping enthusiasts, students & founders
