UGears Stem Lab Arithmetic Model Kit

Description:

• Condition: 100% Brand New
• Brand: UGears
• Color: As picture show
• Number of components: 117
• Estimated time of assembly: 2.5 hour
• The UGEARS Mechanical Addiator is a DIY wooden model kit
• UGEARS’ Arithmetic Kit consists of two ready-to-assemble models: A Mechanical Addiator and a Mechanical Multiplier
• The model kit comes with a QR-code to the study guide about the mechanisms, the principal of their working, the main characteristics, formulas
• Dive into augmented reality and look at how Mechanical Addiator and Mechanical Multiplier work
• Interact with the models via a special AR application from Ugears
• The Mechanical Addiator is a compact arithmetic machine (or adding machine) that works by moving gear racks, using a stylus included in the kit
• Wooden details pre-cut with a precise high-tech laser in high-quality plywood boards, as well as other materials required for assembly
• DIY kits need no glue or additional instruments to build
• The details come out of the board with a slight push
• The Mechanical Addiator consists of: Housing, Rack, Stylus
• The Mechanical Multiplier consists of: Sliders, Lever system, Results window, Value field
• Model Approximate dimensions: 215mm x 110mm x 23mm(L x W x H)

Features:

• Recommended for ages 8+ years
• By moving the sliding racks, marked with arrows and numbers from 0 to 9, you can add and subtract numbers
• The Mechanical Addiator consists of a housing in which four rails or racks are set, with printed values on them
• To do this, the user enters a number value using the stylus, then uses the stylus to enter a second number
• The device then shows the result of the desired mathematical operation, according to where the second number was entered (top row for addition, bottom row for subtraction)
• But the Addiator is not limited to addition and subtraction—you can also use it to multiply and divide
• The Mechanical Multiplier is a flat hinge mechanism that accomplishes binary operations on numbers
• A Toy ingeniously uses a hinged mechanism to perform simple multiplication, designed “to stimulate children’s interest in the study of numbers.”
• The Mechanical Multiplier consists of two sliders which move along a number line (1-12), and a lever system which transfers the movement of the sliders to a “Results” window, which moves along a value field
• As you move the two sliders between different number values, the product of their multiplication will appear in the “Results” window
• In order to multiply a number by itself (to square it), the right slider should be moved to the extreme right position and fixed at the “X²” symbol
• Its simple design and compact size made it a popular mathematical tool in its time
• Today this simple, fun mechanism is part of UGEARS’ outstanding STEM Lab collection
• Ugears STEM puzzles are designed to suit different age groups with a special focus on learning component
• The assembly of the model will be interesting and won’t take much time
