A standard catalogue model: the dimensions, control package and finish are fixed, which is what keeps the price and the lead time predictable. Size, colour and interface language can be adapted without a new design cycle.

01 / Overview

There is a magnetic field around the electrified wire, and the wire is wound into a coil, forming a circular magnetic field distributed along the center of the coil. After the coil is instantly energized, it becomes an electromagnet, and the south and north poles of the electromagnet are respectively close to the south and north poles of the magnet, causing the coil to jump to the other side due to repulsion between the same poles. Operating instructions: Press the button once and observe the coil popping out of the magnet. Press the button repeatedly and observe the coil bouncing left and right repeatedly.

02 / How visitors use it

The unit is designed for unsupervised public use: controls are recessed or shielded, moving parts are enclosed, and the interface is operable by a child of about six with no instruction. Where a screen is used, the language can be switched without changing the hardware, and the content can be replaced on site.

03 / Built for a public floor

Every unit leaves the factory after a running test: mechanisms cycled, electronics burned in, edges dressed, fixings torqued and marked. Wear parts — bearings, sliders, lamps, belts, touch panels — are modular and listed on the spare-part sheet, so a venue technician can replace them without returning the exhibit. Crating is plywood with foam blocking; the loading plan and packing list travel with the shipment.
