Maker's Factory Workshops
In our introductory program, we want to give you a solid grounding in the many possibilities within the Maker’s Factory. We want to work together in a hands-on format in four learning areas on the knowledge you need to realise your own project on this site.
3D data generation
3D printing
CNC milling
2D cutting and engraving
If you have never had any experience in these areas, this is the right course for you – but there will be eye-opening content for more experienced users as well. After completing the course, you will be able to operate the equipment you need independently – but don’t worry, we will still be here to answer any questions!
Note: The courses are not a prerequisite for working on your own. If you’re familiar with the kind of equipment you need to use just let us know, and you can get started after a brief introduction to the machine in question.
Learning field 2: 3D printing
In this learning module, we give you a thorough grounding in the various 3D printing technologies so you can turn your ideas into reality. Whether it’s your first sample from FDM printing or high-quality functional prototypes from the polyjet printer, we cover all the 3D printing technologies available at the Maker’s Factory and give you a glimpse into the wider world of possibilities available in the field of 3D printing.
modul a: fdm-3d-printing
From virtual model to the real thing: learn 3D printing!
In this course you will learn the basics of 3D printing and print a 3D model of your choice on one of the FDM 3D printers in the Maker’s Factory.
Workshop duration: 2 hours
Minimum age: 18 years
Language: course languages are German or English (depending on demand)
Cost: included in membership or day ticket
Machines: Prusa MK3S, Craftbot+ und Ultimaker S3 / S5
Detailed info about this course you can find here.
modul b: sla-3d-printing
3D printing with a high level of detail and a wide range of materials
The fascinating 3D printing process of stereolithography enables you to create complex structures and high-quality surfaces. In this course you will learn everything you need to know about print preparation as well as post-processing and you will send your first model to the Form2 printer.
Workshop duration: 2 hours
Minimum age: 18 years
Language: course languages are German or English (depending on demand)
Cost: included in membership or day ticket
Machines: Form2

modul d: sls-printing workshop
Product designs for additive manufacturing by eos
In this unique combination of e-learning, workshop and expert session, you will gain all the skills in theory and practice that are needed to develop new markets, new business models and new disruptive products with innovative product designs. Gain the skills to, for example, reduce the number of components in an assembly through clever designs, reduce the weight of a component, increase performance or rethink an entire supply chain.
Workshop duration: 2 dates, 4 hours each
Minimum age: 18 years
Language: Course languages are German or English (depending on demand)
Cost: included in membership or day ticket
