Cant have a break in 8h shift

I work in Exte in Germany and most known thing in our department is that you can only have three 10min breaks…But there is a catch! The machines must stay active all the time! So if you want a break you must find someone to swap your place for 10 minutes on the machine which is not possible because everyone has their machine and its impossible to work on two at a time for how fast they are. If I turn off the machine and go to break I would most likely get yelled at by a bos or the worst case scenario-get fired. Do you have any advice for me (except quit), and is this legal?
