ce-net / shenzhen desk

Your hands in Shenzhen.

We work from a makerspace in Huaqiangbei, the electronics market district of Shenzhen, with our own 3D print farm. For hardware teams in Europe we buy components the same day, print and test prototypes, find and check factories, and ship to you, with photos of every step. You talk to us in English or Swedish; we do the searching, comparing and paperwork in Chinese.

Where it stands: the team, the print farm and the supplier search tools are here and in use for our own hardware. This desk now serves outside customers too, and every order gets a person who follows it from quote to delivery.

Real footage from our Shenzhen workshop: the robot arm and its twin make the same pick. The twin rehearses every move first.
