PRELAUNCH Electronics and prototyping in Coventry.

Proposed engineering lab / Coventry

Engineering starts
at the bench.

Professional electronics &
prototyping workspace.

A shared lab for electronics, embedded systems and hardware projects. Equipped workbenches and controlled tool access, without building your own laboratory.

For engineers, students, makers and hardware startups.

The NWATT equipment collection

Build. Record.
Print. Deploy.

Develop your electronics, photograph the prototype, make a YouTube demonstration and explore custom printing or project hosting.

Made for practical projects

From first circuit
to working prototype.

The proposed lab brings focused engineering activities into one managed space. Equipment availability will follow the verified inventory.

01 / ELECTRONICS

Build and debug

Develop circuits, inspect assemblies and work through hardware problems at a proper bench.

02 / EMBEDDED SYSTEMS

Connect the hardware

Bring sensors, microcontrollers and connected devices together in your next prototype.

03 / PROTOTYPING

Make it tangible

Explore enclosure and assembly workflows with shared prototyping equipment and support.

Small by design

Shared space.
Professional standards.

We are planning a focused facility in Enterprise House, Coventry. Capacity will follow the room assessment, with controlled bookings and equipment-specific induction.

Inside the proposal ↗
~33m²

Existing premises.
Layout planning in progress.

4positions

Initial planning assumption.
Final occupancy subject to assessment.

Equipment induction

General induction first. Equipment sign-off where required. Membership never overrides safety.

How access will work ↗

Before we open

Help build the right lab.

  1. Tell us what you need

    Share your equipment interests, preferred times and expected usage. Joining the list is free.

  2. See the proposed space

    Request a tour and share your preferred times. We will confirm the date and details with you individually.

  3. Join when it is ready

    When membership opens, review the final offer and complete the required induction before accessing facilities.

A local engineering community

Coventry
Electronics Night.

IN PLANNING · DATE TO BE CONFIRMED

Bring a project idea. Meet other engineers. See a short demonstration and help shape a useful local community.

Proposed small-group sessions. Attendance and venue capacity will be confirmed before invitations.

A few practical details

Good questions,
clear answers.

Is the lab open yet?

Not yet. We are preparing the lab and finalising the membership offer. Opening details will be announced here.

Will joining the list cost anything?

No. The list records interest only. £49 per month is a proposed founding price, not an offer to take payment.

Which equipment can I use?

The public equipment directory will show only verified assets. Actual use will depend on induction, equipment-specific qualifications, safety rules and booking availability.

Can I work on commercial projects?

Commercial access is part of the proposal. The final policy will define allowed activities, confidentiality and support. Tell us about your needs without sharing confidential project details.

Need engineering help with your project?

NWATT can discuss separately scoped electronics, embedded systems, IoT and prototyping support.
