Labs
The Applied Labs bring research at Industrial Design Engineering one step further than the conventional tests in a lab setting, in that the product or product service is designed for, and evaluated in a more realistic and thus more complex setting. This will lead to new insights and better predictions of users interactions in the real world environment.
The Foundational Labs (also known as DE-Labs) contain all our facilities for the testing of materials, parts and products. The Labs comprise four separate rooms: the CHEM-Lab for controlled and safe experiments involving aggressive chemicals, the MAT-Lab for large- and small-scale materials testing (used mainly, but not exclusively, for plastics and natural materials), the Digital Fabrication Lab with all the 3D printing facilities and the M-Lab to work on parts and products.
