A public-access fabrication facility at Oceansgate — and the seed of Emrys's manufacturing competency.
A public-access fabrication laboratory at Oceansgate offering 3D printing (FDM, resin, SLS), laser cutting, CNC machining and electronics workbenches at slightly below-market pricing.
| Problem solved | Plymouth's engineering and marine community lacks an accessible, well-equipped shared fabrication space — and Emrys needs to build in-house manufacturing competency from day one. |
| Key innovation | Revenue from spare capacity, a local engineering talent pipeline, and hands-on manufacturing experience for every product in the Emrys portfolio, all from the same facility. |
| Target markets | Local engineers, makers, students, and small businesses around Plymouth's marine and technology cluster. |
| Status | Planned for Year 1–2, partially funded from seed capital. |
| Key milestone | Revenue contribution begins Year 2. |
| Revenue model | Membership, machine time, and training. |
