Objective

The Fablab (fabrication laboratory) offers our students a meeting point where they can work creatively and independently in the areas of 3D printing, electronics (design, assembly, soldering, measuring) and mechanical processing. The lab can be used any time – after registration – for projects, Bachelor and Master theses, practical activities and more.

Using the laboratory

A safety briefing is required to use the laboratory. To arrange an appointment, please get in touch with one of the contact partners.
