Mechanical and Materials Engineering
Through integrated expertise and state-of-the-art equipment, we turn formidable ideas into reality
Mandate
Pushing the Frontiers of Science and Technology
At CERN, advancing the frontiers of science and technology demands ingenuity, expertise, and precision. Every day, our Mechanical and Materials Engineering group designs, builds, and probes innovative mechanical components and advanced materials —not only for CERN’s accelerator and detector complex, but also for pioneering projects that will shape the future of science.
With decades of experience, we transform conceptual requirements into precise mechanical solutions—from initial design and advanced simulations to precision manufacturing—supported by in-depth investigations in our specialized laboratories for materials science and mechanical measurements. Our state-of-the-art facilities, complemented by collaborations with partner international institutes and industrial firms in CERN member states, ensure the highest standards of quality and innovation.
