Motion

Coriolis Force
COMING SOON: A highly visual demonstration of the Coriolis Force on a jet of water.

CAM ANALYSIS MACHINE

A machine to allow students to study the dynamic behaviour of different cams and followers and their "bounce" speed.

GOVERNORS

Three interchangeable governors (Hartnell, Porter and Proell) show the effects of speed, mass and geometry on governor behaviour.

BALANCE OF RECIPROCATING MASSES

A model four cylinder engine that shows the primary and secondary forces and moments when balancing reciprocating masses.

HELICAL GEAR DRIVE UNIT
A helical gear drive unit for use with the TM1018.

ROLLER CHAIN DRIVE UNIT
A roller chain drive unit for use with the TM1018.


TOOTHED BELT DRIVE UNIT
A toothed belt drive unit for use with the TM1018.

ACCELERATION & STATIC TEST STAND
An ancillary unit to the TM1018 for performing acceleration tests on a simple flywheel (included) and the TM1018 gear drive unit. It also provides a facility for static friction tests on the TM1018 gear drive unit.

GEARED SYSTEMS

An experimental unit to allow students to find the dynamic efficiency of various drive types. The unit comes complete with a gear drive unit which can be configured as a simple or compound drive.

CENTRIFUGAL FORCE

For experiments in centrifugal force and angular velocity.

GYROSCOPE

Demonstrates the relationship between gyroscopic couple and the velocities of the rotor and precession.
