DefleX-2D
An entry-level digital image correlation (DIC) system to teach students how to measure and visualise surface deformations, strains and displacements in materials and shapes.

DefleX-3D
An integrated digital image correlation system for measuring full-field displacements and strains over a material’s surface in three dimensions.
DefleX-3D is ideal for material science, structural engineering and general mechanical engineering courses.

WHIRLING OF SHAFTS AND CRITICAL SPEED
A compact bench top mounting experiment to demonstrate the phenomena of whirling shafts.

STATIC AND DYNAMIC BALANCING
Bench top apparatus for experiments in balancing a rotating mass system, statically and dynamically.

GYROSCOPE

Bench top apparatus for experiments in gyroscopic couple and velocities of rotor and precision.

CENTRIFUGAL FORCE

Bench top apparatus for experiments in centrifugal force and angular velocity.

Coriolis Force
Benchtop apparatus for demonstrations and experiments in Coriolis force.

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.

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.

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


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

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

CAM ANALYSIS MACHINE

Bench mounted apparatus and control and instrumentation unit, for studying the dynamic behaviour of different cams and followers and their 'bounce' speed.

BALANCE OF RECIPROCATING MASSES

Bench mounted model four cylinder engine with control and instrumentation unit that demonstrates the primary and secondary forces and moments when balancing reciprocating masses.

GOVERNORS

Bench top apparatus for demonstrating how different governors work, including Hartnell, Porter and Proell govornors.
