SMALLEST GENERATOR

 

Last semester we tried to harvest wind energy on a small scale, so we used the motor that will normally let your mobile vibrate for some tests...and of course its not only a motor but also a generator.

BUCKY LAB UPDATE

 

Our students work very hard one week before the building weeks, the first renderings are on their way so stay tuned, we picked one shot within the process to share…this will become box no.5 the “bucky box” which will become the kitchen, edutainment and place for this and that….

 

BUCKY LAB WORLDS FIRST WITH HETTICH ARCITECH

Our mobile workshop will be outfitted with the brand new drawer system ARCITECH from Hettich. The system will be launched on June 11th and we will get this future proof system for our workshop.
We are very proud to be the first who will use this new line of drawers, that will allow to have a loading capacity of 80kg in each drawer with silk smooth running action. What we have seen so far, the system is not only very versatile but also fast to assmemble and easy to change for future adjustments. With this system we are really future proof.
We will post some action fotos when we start building the boxes in June.

BUCKY LAB WORKS WITH WALKO

mobility becomes an important issue for the new bucky lab. Beeing able to work on different locations is also a challenge. Up to now we had planned to use big plywood tables on workhorses…yes you are right not very mobile…
We found the perfect solution: The WALKO workbench. Thats the perfect solution for our mobile workshop. This outstanding working bench is very versatile and flexible in use, beside the function as a workbench this system is also perfectly suited as a mobile cutting center with our mobile circlesaw.
WALKO will support us for this semesters building weeks with a set of their workbenches and the inventor Bart Groot himself will show us how to use it to its maximum.
And of course this system is on top of our wishlist.

BUILDING WEEKS

MEETING WITH HETTICH

We had a very good meeting with Hettich and a part of our students who prepared the detailing for the mobile workshop pushed Aard Wassink our dutch hettich expert to the limit. It makes us proud if our students are able to ask questions in such a detailed level that even the experts has to ask their backup ...At the end it seems that they have found the only mistake within the CAD database out of the million parts hettich is offering. Aard was impressed how much they worked and how precise everything was set up, not to forget how well they found their way through the "bible", hettichs huge print cataloque..,

The problem was solved quickly, all parts will fit and we will get the best mobile workshop, fully equipped with drawers and components from Hettich. 80 kg of tools in one drawer ? no problem ! Even a child will be able to open it...

There might be also some fantastic news, but we are not allowed to talk about it right now ...but lets pray!

Up to now thanks again to hettich for their generous support and to our students Dave, Sisko and Ron who worked very hard to set up the whole planning.
