Didactic Concept for Experiments in Statics and Strength of Materials

An innovative feature of the GUNT MEC Line is the integration of smart, communication-enabled components with dynamic software. The series intuitively combines mechanical experiments with digital teaching methods.

The stable, stainless steel SE 200 mounting frame is assembled with quick-release fasteners, so no tools are required. The mounting frame provides direct and wireless data transmission and power supply for the smart components. For an all experimental setup, only 1 power bus line is required, which connects the mounting frame to the master module via Plug & Play. All experiment data is collected and forwarded to the GUNT software via a USB connection.

The smart, communication-enabled components, such as bars, loads or supports, are equipped with an electronic module for data acquisition and measured value display. Once positioned, they are automatically identified with their exact position and alignment and displayed both numerically and graphically in the GUNT software.

Experiment results are also displayed graphically in the GUNT software. Measurement data is easily stored and processed on a PC. Accessories of the series can be combined in a modular way and this allows the setup and extension of the experiments. Comprehensive didactic multimedia teaching material for the entire series is available free of charge online in the GUNT Media Centre.

We are currently offering to visit your college or university in the UK or Ireland to demonstrate the SE 200. Contact us today to arrange a FREE demonstration by emailing us at marketing@gunt-technology.co.uk or call us on 01264 339356.
