Facilities and equipment

SCI MakerSpace is designed to be visible, accessible and easy to use. It offers different spaces for project work, manufacturing, prototyping, electronics, measurement and collaboration, together with equipment that supports both course activities and independent projects.

Teknikringen 8

SCI MakerSpace is located at Teknikringen 8 and is designed as an open and welcoming environment. Situated on the ground floor with large windows, the space is highly visible and easy to discover for students and visitors.

Different spaces for different needs

SCI MakerSpace is designed to support a range of activities. It includes spaces for teaching, project work and everyday use, complemented by lounge areas for informal meetings. Clear flows and separate areas make it easy to move between focused work, collaboration and hands-on activities.

Lounge and meeting area

SCI MakerSpace includes a welcoming lounge and display area for projects, examples and introductions. It also provides space for meetings, planning and welcoming groups.

Heavy-duty fabrication

We also have a dedicated area for heavy-duty fabrication, with appropriate ventilation and facilities for dust control, painting and epoxy work.

Project and assembly

SCI MakerSpace offers general work areas for project work, assembly and hands-on activities, with easy access to hand tools and measurement equipment.

Storage and materials

Storage for ongoing projects, materials, components and loan equipment is an important part of the makerspace environment.

Electronics and digital fabrication

The space includes areas for electronics, soldering and digital fabrication.

AlbaNova as a satellite location

SCI MakerSpace is complemented by a satellite location at AlbaNova. It provides basic technical equipment for rapid prototyping and work that does not require dedicated ventilation or more advanced safety measures. Larger activities and longer-term projects mainly take place at Teknikringen 8, while AlbaNova provides students and teachers, particularly in physics and applied physics, with convenient access to basic facilities.

At AlbaNova, you will find:

  • FDM 3D printers
  • hand tools
  • soldering equipment
  • basic ventilation
  • measurement and optical equipment
