The Central Mechanical Workshop is a joint service group of the Stuttgart Max Planck Institutes. With our modern machinery we manufacture component parts and assemblies based on drawings, models, sketches and samples. Our main customers are the scientific departments and the scientific service groups. Our manufactured parts range in size from small sample containers to big cryostats and welded assemblage.

The Service Facility Chemical Synthesis has at its disposal numerous instrumental techniques for the spectrometric and element-specific analysis of pure metals, metal alloys, ceramic materials and organic substances.

The Electronics Workshop is a joint service group of the Stuttgart Max Planck Institutes. Our work focuses on:
Electronics / Electrical engineering / Storage and supply of electric and electronic items (approx. 8000)

We are a unit with a modern equipped workshop and a current team of four experienced skilled workers and one trainee. In our unit we manufacture single parts and assemblies for different areas of the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems and the Max Planck Institute for Solid State Research.

In our Glass technology workshop we mainly produce glassware from borosilicate glass and quartz glass. We build the constructions according to drawings and sketches, or construct the glass together with the scientists.

We have a lot of experience in the design of machines, in the field of robotics and electronics. We are looking forward to further tasks and new challenges.
