A digital dice that resembles our well-known Memmert climate chambers and is now used during school visits. It perfectly illustrates what training at Memmert stands for: not just theory, but creating, experimenting and sparking enthusiasm for technology.
What started as a simple thought quickly grew into a fully fledged project. Instead of the traditional soldering exercise usually offered during school visits, Nina wanted something fresh. Her goal was to design an activity that required real craftsmanship while also linking directly to Memmert’s core products.
The result was a digital dice. It looks playful at first glance, yet it is a complex and functional piece of electronics. Nina developed the circuit, tested her design on stripboards and eventually created a professional printed circuit board. To make it suitable for group activities, 150 units were produced, each partially pre-assembled with SMD components.
When visiting Memmert, students are invited to complete the dice themselves by soldering the remaining THT components. In doing so, they gain hands-on insights into the kind of skills that are taught during an apprenticeship at Memmert. The exercise is practical, exciting and directly tied to the work our apprentices experience every day.
“As I worked on the project, it was important to me to create something that not only explains technology but also inspires curiosity,” Nina recalls. Her idea has done exactly that. The digital dice combines playful learning with a clear connection to our products and our company.
Nina’s journey is also marked by another success: together with her fellow apprentice Maximilian, she won first place among medium-sized companies in the prestigious IHK Energy Scout Project. This award highlights the dedication, creativity and innovative spirit that our young talents bring to Memmert.
The digital dice is more than just a clever exercise. On its reverse side, a QR code links directly to the Memmert careers page. This means the project also opens doors: it introduces young people to technology in a fun way, while at the same time showing them a potential career path at Memmert.
With her project, Nina has created something of real value—for Memmert, for school visits and above all for young people taking their first steps into the world of technology. The digital dice shows that an apprenticeship at Memmert is not limited to theory. It means contributing ideas, experimenting with solutions and turning passion into achievements.
