<![CDATA[Abstract: Limited access to laboratory facilities in vocational education, particularly in the field of mechanical engineering, often becomes a major obstacle in providing safe and industry-relevant practical experiences. Vocational high school (SMK) teachers in Bontang face challenges in delivering effective and efficient practice-based learning. This study aims to develop a Mixed Reality (MR) Laboratory as an innovative solution for simulating mechanical engineering practices. The MR Mixed Lab is designed to provide interactive learning experiences through mixed reality technology, enabling teachers to guide students in understanding machine assembly and disassembly concepts without the risk of equipment damage or injury. In addition, MR implementation can reduce operational practice costs and increase the frequency of training within a more realistic learning environment. The research method employed is Research and Development (R&D) with the ADDIE model, which consists of the stages of Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. The development process involves user needs analysis, system design, creation of interactive 3D models, and effectiveness testing involving vocational school teachers. Data are collected through observation, questionnaires, and interviews to evaluate usability, learning effectiveness, and user engagement. The expected outcome is an MR Lab prototype that is relevant, feasible, and beneficial for vocational education.
