THE ACTIVITY & MECHANISM
Follow a moving story through a ball run
A themed ball-run installation combines tracks, lifting mechanisms and moving story characters. The lifting and transfer sections move balls between the themed routes, while the moving characters provide separate examples of mechanical output within the story setting.

Explore the supportDelivery, installation & after-sales terms
- Payment
- A 50% deposit is payable after the contract is signed. The remaining balance is paid after acceptance and before dispatch, so full payment is received before dispatch. Payment methods are agreed in the contract.
- Packaging & transport
- Metal shipping cases or multilayer wood-panel shipping cases. Transport arrangements and costs are agreed to suit the project.
- Materials & painted finish
- Common material options include Q235 steel, stainless steel, aluminium alloy, PVC, acrylic, engineering plastics. The combination is selected for each configuration. Marine anti-corrosion paint with a piano-gloss automotive paint finish. Applied to painted parts.
- Typical power · powered versions
- Standard products: 100–500 W; oversized installations: 1,000–5,000 W. Typical ranges for powered versions. Confirm the selected model and final connected load.
- Product maintenance
- Agree cleaning, control checks and inspection of accessible parts for the supplied configuration.
- Installation & training
- Complimentary training is available on site or remotely, according to project needs. If installation or on-site after-sales service is not included in the product price, the customer pays the actual travel expenses incurred, unless the contract provides otherwise.
- Factory acceptance & handover
- Mid-production and pre-dispatch checks are provided. Factory acceptance can take place in person at the factory or through acceptance videos. Installation and operating videos, written installation and operating instructions, drawings and a spare-parts list are provided.
- Complimentary parts
- 24 months of complimentary spare-parts support, starting when the exhibit is handed over for use. Covers faults not caused by the user. User-caused or deliberate damage is excluded. Exhibit Engineers pays the shipping cost of complimentary spare parts during the 24-month support period.
- Warranty & repair labour
- The whole-exhibit warranty period and repair labour scope and charges are agreed in the contract.
Can we discuss a prototype or sample for a custom version?
Yes. Prototype testing and sample fabrication are available for custom projects. Discuss which functions or features you need to review for your version. The scope, cost and schedule are agreed for the project.
How prototype testing & samples workWhat can be adapted for our project?
Discuss the appearance, interpretation, controls and installed configuration of Ball Storytime for your audience and space.
What do the images and videos show?
Photographs and design previews are labelled separately. Design previews show appearance, rather than verified operation. The operating sequence and supplied configuration are agreed in the project drawings.
