TecQuipment's Gear Trains Kit (ES13) demonstrates the characteristics of a spur gear, bevel gear, and a worm drive.
Engineering Science
Experimental Equipment for Teaching Fundamentals of Mechanical Engineering
The engineering science range is a modular system of experimental kits that address the fundamental principles of mechanical engineering including forces and moments; materials testing; vibration, friction and energy; simple machines; and mechanisms. The high quality, robust 'kits' are suitable for teaching STEM principles at a beginner level, while remaining relevant for familiarisation at a post-graduate level. All the hardware required to do experiments related to a particular topic are contained within a kit. These are presented in a storage tray with a purpose-made insert and checklist to ensure all of the parts are returned at the end of the lab session.
Kits can be purchased in any combination, from multiple kits for a whole class to perform the same experiment or a selection of individual kits for demonstrating a variety of different experiments. TecQuipment also sell purpose-built storage trolleys for keeping the kits tidy while protecting them from damage when not in use.
