Our company receives funding from the European Union through the InnoInvest guideline. This project supports the purchase of a CNC milling machine and the investments required for its installation. The CNC milling machine is used for the production of plastic parts. It is a process innovation that optimizes established products or manufactures them more cost-effectively or in a more resource-efficient manner.
Our company receives funding from the European Union via the FTI-Thüringen Technologie guideline. In this project, a test platform is being developed on which various assemblies, materials and functionalities for biobanks can be tested independently of the device. The purpose of the project is to react flexibly and quickly to changing device requirements using the platform’s testing capabilities.
Through the FTI-Thüringen Personen guideline, our company receives funding from the State of Thuringia from the European Social Fund Plus for innovative employees in the field of fluorescence microscopy (2024 INP 0122). The topics are development, testing and optimization of fluorescence microscopes in different sizes and functions as well as the identification of functional requirements for the devices.
