We are an open workshop with a wide range of equipment. People aged 14 and over meet here to work, exchange ideas and learn.
Welcome to experimenta’s Maker Space!
Our workshops have a large selection of machines, equipment and materials; you also have all kinds of know-how at your disposal to realize your ideas independently.
The spectrum ranges from small repairs to school and art projects to the development of a prototype for your start-up.
The Maker Space is also a community whose members support each other, learn from each other and work on joint projects.
In addition to regular workshops on various topics, members also work on their own projects here.
Our annual Maker Faire will take place on 08.02.2025. Due to the high number of visitors in recent years, we are expanding our exhibition space and moving the event to the large “Kubus” event room at experimenta.
If you would like to be part of the exhibition with your project, you can already apply here:
And if you would like to give a short presentation about your exciting project, you can apply here:
They cannot be seen, heard, smelled or felt with human senses and yet they play a decisive role in the most important processes of life.
Scan the drawing and digitize it with any vector program.
I use Inkscape for this.
I do not use automatic digitization,
First you need a design.
As soon as this is ready, holes are drilled on a Plexiglas plate for the electronics.
The neon LED strip is cut to the right size and
All that is needed is a particle accelerator that generates an electron beam with an energy of approx. 5 MeV, through which the plastic block is pushed.
The wood of the earrings was laser-cut and fixed in a wire holder.
The casket was machined with the CNC router.
A very fine milling cutter created this detailed tree profile.
I wanted to make something long-lasting and something that I would enjoy every time I saw it.
So I was inspired and decided on an epoxy resin table.
Dyeing with indigo has little to do with what we used to call “batiks” on camps.
Instead, we immerse ourselves in the world of chemistry.
To get the indigo pigment into our textile fibers, we have to put on a vat.
Here, a beautiful new clock case was created from an old wooden panel.
The markings were made with the laser cutter and covered with foil.
The foil was cut with our plotter.
The process of our projects with textile film starts with a design that we vectorize, then we cut it out with our cutting plotter, then we remove the parts of the textile film,
Inspired by the “Lava-Frame” from MAKE 03/2023, this light object with 169 LEDs was created.
The animation running on the LED matrix is controlled by an Arduino-Nano microcontroller.
Let’s take a look at how to make your own fingerboard to take bouldering or climbing to the next level.
Unserem Versprechen „Die ganze Welt an einem Ort“ folgend, bietet das Science Center experimenta eine einzigartige Wissens- und Erlebniswelt für Wissbegierige von drei bis 103 Jahren.
