Identify All Three Classes of Levers and Their Key Parts

Unique Construction, Cool Collectible

Investigate and experiment with 7 functioning Wheel & Axle and Inclined Plane models designed to demonstrate science and technology concepts.

Students can determine, through investigation, if the machine multiplies the force it applies to the resistance (load), if the machine changes the direction of the force they apply, and more.

Demonstrate the Stirling Design External Combustion Engine with our 18×11 cm working model. The Stirling engine currently is being re-examined as a practical source of power because of its adaptability to almost any fuel. First produced in the 1800’s as a non-electric fan and an automatic hot air water pump, the engine soon became obsolete due to its lack of sufficient power when compared to the newly developed combustion engine. Any fuel can be used with our model, but denatured alcohol is suggested for clean operation.

K'NEX Education Intro to Simple Machines: Wheels and Axles and Inclined Planes is designed to introduce students to the scientific concepts associated with two types of Simple Machines: wheels and axles and inclined planes.
