Central workshop
The central workshop, also known as the "ZBW", is mainly involved in the mechanical production of prototypes and components for experimental setups. These are usually part of research projects or various forms of student research projects.
You can take a virtual tour (external link, opens in a new window) of our premises here.
Consultation hours for students and colleagues:
- Monday to Thursday: 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m
- Fridays and before public holidays: 7:00 am to 9:00 am
Submit a production order?
For students
If you would like to submit a production order as part of your degree programme, please first discuss this with your responsible member of staff at the university. He or she is responsible for assisting you with your project, checking your design for correctness and checking the technical drawings you have created before the colleague submits the production order to the ZBW.

For colleagues
Any colleague with purchasing authorisation can submit production orders to the ZBW.
For larger or more complex projects, please make an appointment with us as soon as the rough design has been finalised to discuss the manufacturing options.
Please note that you are responsible for checking all workpieces and their correctness.
