Ugears STEM LAB Gearbox

Discover the mechanics of manual transmission with the UGears STEM LAB Transmission design. This kit builds a completely working interactive puzzle that helps you study the transmission, the groundbreaking creation of German engineer Karl Benz commonly utilized in automobiles today. 

A mechanical transmission transfers torque from the engine's shaft to the wheels. When assembled, this design will help you find out how a 4-speed manual transmission works by offering a hands-on experience of the physics involved. Select a speed with the mini gearshift lever, then turn the actuator manage to spin the equipments. Shift into reverse to see how the clutch moves the rotation to the lower equipments, which moves them in the opposite direction.

Included with this design is a pocket study guide that details the development story and system style of the transmission. It likewise has concepts for engaging activities and other interesting facts about your design.
