Mechanical Design and Production

The primary function of the Mechanical Design and Production (MDP) group is the co-development and manufacturing of mechanical and electro-mechanical components related to the research pursuits of the ARTORG Center and the Inselspital and external academic research collaborators with their mechanical design and production needs.

We support all levels of the design and manufacturing process from idea to production including computer assisted design (CAD) modeling, CNC-milling and CNC-lathe machines.

Our Capabilities:

  • Design and development in collaboration with the user
  • CAD - design of individual parts and assemblies
  • CNC manufacturing of simple parts through to complete devices from a wide range of materials such as stainless steel, titanium, aluminium, POM, PEEK, PMMA, PTFA, and more

Training and Education for Polymechanics

The MDP group has a secondary role in education for Polymechanics. This education  encompasses the skills required to safely and proficiently operate machine shop tooling and equipment, the knowledge required to achieve the best results with a variety of materials and the skills needed to efficiently manage the design and production workflow.

Trial apprenticeships are used as a means to evaluate candidates for a full apprenticeship in the MDP group mechanical design and production needs.
See the section "Jobs (Lehrstelle)" for more information on our apprenticeship positions.
