LABORATORY OF PROSTHETICS AND ORTHOTICS
responsible person: Ing. Lucia Bednarčíková, PhD.
Location: Letná 9, main building, ground floor B-block, room B/P023
Focus of the laboratory
The laboratory is focused on diagnostic procedures and taking measurement data for the design and production of orthopedic aids. The laboratory's equipment is primarily used for postural and podiatric analyzes and the subsequent production of orthopedic insoles. Students can deepen and verify their theoretical knowledge in subjects such as Prosthetics and Orthotics I./II., Biomechanics in Prosthetics and Orthotics I./II. and Proteometry.

LABORATORY OF ENGINEERING METROLOGY
Responsible person: Ing. Tatiana Kelemenová, PhD.
Location: Letná 9, main building, 3rd floor B-block, room B323
Focus of the laboratory
The laboratory is focused on the measurement of dimensions, geometric tolerances, electrical and non-electrical quantities in the field of mechanical engineering and electrical engineering. It is primarily used for teaching the subject of Mechanical Metrology for the entire 3rd year of bachelor's studies at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and for teaching other subjects that use measuring devices, sensors and gauges. It also serves for scientific-research activities in the field of measurement by teachers, scientific-researchers and students for the implementation of experiments related to final and diploma theses.

LABORATORY OF CAD/CAM SYSTEMS
Responsible person: doc. Ing. Teodor Tóth, PhD.
Location: Letná 9, main bulding, 3rd floor B-block, č.m. B321
Focus of the laboratory
The CAD/CAM laboratory is moving to new premises in the BiZONE laboratory (ground floor B/P021).
MEDICAL ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING UTILITIES LABORATORY (MAMUT 2)
Responsible person: doc. Ing. Marek Schnitzer, PhD.
Location: Letná 9, main building, ground floor B-block, room B/P026
Focus of the laboratory
The MAMUT 2 laboratory is focused on the production of filaments from low-temperature polymers (e.g. PCL ...) as well as the production of filaments from high-temperature polymers (e.g. PEEK, PPSU ....). Part of the production process is also the recording of the diameter of the filament, where it is possible to analyze this kind of parameter from the point of view of the quality of the produced filament. Students can thus verify theoretical knowledge in the field of production technologies in the form of produced filament. Another area of interest of the given laboratory is the filament recycling process, where it is possible to analyze the recycling process in terms of the production parameters of re-extrusion of filaments.
The output itself in the form of the manufactured filament can be further investigated in the 3D printing process using FDM technology. By setting and optimizing the required parameters in the pre-processing of 3D printing for a new type of material, students and employees of this workplace acquire knowledge in software and hardware solutions to the given problem. The output in the given area are experimental samples or models, which are further subjected to mechanical or biological testing.
