THE ACTIVITY & MECHANISM

How the activity works.

A transparent dome protects a funnel surface on a circular visitor cabinet. A rolling object follows the changing slope while gravity and contact forces redirect its path. The activity offers an accessible orbital analogy, with interpretation explaining how a real funnel and friction differ from a planet moving in space.

  1. 01

    Inspect the funnel

    Look at the slope and identify the labelled release or start control.

  2. 02

    Start the supplied object

    Operate the visitor input without opening the transparent enclosure.

  3. 03

    Track the changing path

    Follow the object toward the centre and compare its route on successive trials.

Delivery, 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
Inspect visitor controls, guards, fixings and the specific mechanism according to supplied operating and maintenance instructions.
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 work
What can we discuss for our setting?

Share the learning theme, visitor group, room plan and preferred interaction. Confirm the appearance, dimensions, controls and interpretation for the version you need.

What should we confirm before ordering?

Review the final configuration, operating instructions, power and installation needs, maintenance access and supply responsibilities with the project team.

FROM CONCEPT TO TURNKEY DELIVERY

Start with a reference. Shape your version.

Share the exhibit name, intended users and a plan or description of your setting. We can work through the experience and practical scope.
