Moments Kit

This versatile kit is part of a series that allows manyexperiments using different arrangements of their parts. It also works with spring balances to show reaction forces on beams with pointloads and uniformly distributed loads (UDLs). Students, teachers orlecturers fit the parts of the kit to the Work Panel to study or show anengineering science topic. A pulley allows extra experiments withmoments caused by oblique forces. The rigid beam allows experiments that showthe use of moments to find unknown weights, creating simple beam balances. This kit includes a rigid beam for experiments inthe principle of moments, extending to levers and beams. It shows the threemain lever types (1st, 2nd and 3rd order) and includes an shape plate forexperiments in bell crank levers.

Spring Tester Kit

This versatile kit allows many experiments using differentarrangements of its parts. This kit includes different coiled springs for experiments in spring testing. These include extension springs, compression springs, parallel springs andsprings that can connect in series. Students, teachers or lecturers fit the parts of thekit to the Work Panel to study or demonstrate an engineering science topic. They also test springs in parallel and series to see how this affects theoverall spring rate. Students test the springs to prove Hookes Law and find their spring rate, comparing it with given manufacturers values. The kit helps students to understand the link betweenspring rate, spring extension and the design and construction of springs. It introduces students to key engineering terms such as:
Spring pretension
Spring rate
Hookes Law.

Drive Systems Kit

This versatile kit is part of a series that allows manyexperiments using different arrangements of their parts. Students test a universalcoupling, a belt drive and a chain drive to see how they work and how theydiffer in the way they transfer motion. The kit introduces students to key engineering terms such asgear ratio, pulley ratio and efficiency. The kit includes extra parts to helpshow the importance of the angle of lap around a pulley and its relationshipwith friction. Students, teachers orlecturers fit the parts of the kit to the Work Panel to study or show anengineering science topic. This kit includes three different drive systems toshow their relative advantages and disadvantages. The selection of parts in the kits and the choice of fixing points on the Work Panel that teachers or lecturers may extend the experiments to an even greaterrange. It includes all the worksheets, guidancenotes and lecturer notes needed for typical experiments with each kit.

Potential And Kinetic Energy Kit

This kit includes a pendulum, a spring and aflywheel for experiments in potential and kinetic energy. Students test eachpart to discover the difference between potential and kinetic energy and thetransfer of energy from one form to another. This versatile kit is part of a series that allows manyexperiments using different arrangements of their parts. The kit introduces students to keyengineering terms such as moment of inertia and elastic potential energy. Students, teachers orlecturers fit the parts of the kit to the Work Panel to study or show an engineering science topic.

Additional Mechanisms Kit

These include the Genevamechanism and a ratchet mechanism. Students test each mechanism to see how itworks and note the differences in the way that each mechanism converts themotion. This kit offers additional mechanisms, supplementary tothose of the Simple Mechanisms Kit. Students, teachers or lecturers fit theparts of the kit to the Work Panel to study or demonstrate an engineeringscience topic. The two mechanisms are the same as those used in real applications,such CNC machines, hand tools, turnstiles and lifting hoists. Each has a uniqueway of converting motion, shown by the experiments. This kit includes two popular mechanisms for experiments inconversion of motion from one form to another.

Main parts:
Ratchet mechanism
Geneva mechanism
