With our laser cutters you can cut, mark or engrave a wide variety of materials such as wood, acrylic glass, cardboard, and more. The laser cutters allow for particularly precise and detailed results. All you need is material for laser cutting and a file with the object to be lasered.

With our 3D plastic printers you can print objects easily. For example, you can use a ready-to-print template from the Internet, construct an object using a CAD program, or digitize a real object using the 3D scanner. The 3D printer then builds the object of your choice layer by layer from liquid plastic.

Our 3D plaster printer allows you to print three-dimensional objects, for example to produce a prototype or individual components. A specially prepared plaster is used as the starting material.

Styrofoam is difficult to work with knives. With our styrofoam cutter, you can precisely shape the material into the desired form. Both 2D and 3D models are possible. In this way, you can produce architectural city building models as well as concrete formwork and much more.

Thermoforming machines are mainly used to produce individually shaped, cut and printed plastic packaging. However, they can also be used to produce other precisely shaped plastic parts. The process scores particularly well with a combination of shaping, colorfulness and function.

You want to assemble a control prototype or repair a defective bicycle tail light, but you lack the necessary equipment? At our electronics workstation you have access to a soldering station, a hot air station and an oscilloscope.

With our structured light 3D scanners, you can create textured and accurate 3D models of medium-sized objects, such as sculptures, machine parts or furniture. The device scans quickly while capturing dimensionally accurate, high-resolution images.
