Makerspace CNC
The Makerspace CNC package specifically promotes STEM and MINT skills. With the UNIMAT CNC machines, makers can gain practical experience in the fields of mechanical engineering, electronics and computer science and improve their skills in programming CNC turning and milling machines. The slides can be moved manually or by means of stepper motors. The package includes templates and materials for projects.

Projects and ideas
The Makerspace CNC is the combination between computer-aided design and manufacturing of selected components. Complex 3D models can be manufactured via computer control. An example of the CNC milling machine is the production of a building block. This combines STEM applications such as measurement technology, design and computer science with actual manufacturing on the CNC machine. The additional rotary table CNC transforms the 3-axis milling machine into a full-fledged 4-axis milling machine.
