Klages Machine Shop

The Klages’ Machine shop was made possible through a generous donation from Arthur Klages. This facility contains basic equipment that students can use to build components while learning manufacturing processes.

For information on how to gain access to the Ware Lab and machine shop, please visit the Lab Access page. Any student in the College of Engineering engaged in a Ware Lab project can use the machine shop after competing proper certification.
