The Laboratory of design, manufacturing and control (in French: Laboratoire de conception fabrication commande), also known as the LCFC, is a French laboratory of research located in Metz.

It was created in 2009 from the division of the LGIPM,[2] a laboratory specialized in industrial design and manufacturing.

The joint venture with the Agence nationale de la recherche aims to design a new humanoid robot, nicknamed Hydroid.

The laboratory is also implied in the projet Corousso, focused on the friction stir welding process.

The LCFC is one of the user of the Cassiopé computer cluster, along with the Arts et Métiers ParisTech and the University of Lorraine.
