TECHCARD TECHNOLOGY SERIES

Power Bots - Gnasher

Using tech card technology these kits illustrate how to make sturdy structures

from simple elements and how to combine simple mechanisms to form working

mechanical devises.

The Gnasher has a fearsome mechanical jaw that will gobble up everything in its path.

As the drive axle rotates it turns a cam which opens and closes the jaw. small objects

placed in its path are collected up as it trundles along.

Tech card technology is used widely in schools to teach design and technology.

Power Racers - Rough Roader

Using tech card technology these kits illustrate how to make sturdy structures from

simple elements and how to combine simple mechanisms to form working

mechanical devises.

The rough roader is a powerful off roader with worm gear drive, simple front

suspension and chunky tyres that increase friction with the bumpy terrain for ultimate grip.

Tech card technology is used widely in schools to teach design and technology. Will require batteries.

Power Bots - Scamper

Using tech card technology these kits illustrate how to make sturdy structures

from simple elements and how to combine simple mechanisms to form working

mechanical devises.

The Scamper robot has two powerful cam operated arms that propel it over uneven

terrain. This clever motion allows the robot to clamber away from trouble where a

wheeled vehicle would simply get stuck !

Power Circuits  -  Desk Lamp 

Using tech card technology these kits illustrate how to make sturdy structures from

simple elements and how to combine simple mechanisms to form working

mechanical devises.

This Power Circuits kit is a great way of introducing simple electric circuits.

Following circuit diagrams you can assemble basic components into a working 

desk lamp. Discover how electricity flows in a circuit and see how it can be controlled

by a switch to operate it, turning electric current into light. The desk lamp is adjustable

so shine the light right where you need it . Absolutely brilliant !
