Science &Technology PROFI Sets

Fischertechnik

Profi sets are an ideal way to explore many important aspects

of STEM Education. These sets help to provide the technicians of tomorrow with

a hands-on learning experience in the areas of mechanics, statics, pneumatics,

physics, simple machinery, electronics and renewable energies. These sets are widely

used in middle and high schools as well as in colleges and universities across the

globe. Each set comes with both full color instructions, as well as a black and white,

multi-language teaching and activity guide. Recommended for age 9+.

Mechanic + Static

Fischertechnik

The ideal introduction to fun-

damentals of engineering and construction for

all future mechanical engineers. The areas of

dynamics, statics, gears, structure, and bracing

are all addressed as students learn by building

models that illustrate the principles behind

these concepts.

This set will help students to answer questions such as:

• How does a gear box work?

• What is a planetary gear?

• How is the movement of a windshield wiper produced?

• How do you design a stable bridge?

• ...and much more

Includes

500 components for building 30 different models, instruction

booklet, mini motor, switch & battery tray.

Requires 9V battery, sold separately.

Pneumatic

Fischertechnik

Educational construction

set helps students learn the principles behind

pneumatics and uses realistic models

(8 total)

to demonstrate how compressors, pneumatic

valves and cylinders work. Powerful and com-

pact compressor guarantees a reliable supply of

compressed air to the models.

Includes

360 components, plus a compressor, 4 pneumatic cylinders, four 4/3-

way manual valves, activity booklet & battery holder

(for 9V block batteries)

.

Requires 9V battery, sold separately.

Oeco Energy

Fischertechnik

How can ecological electric

power be produced? "Renewable energies"

will become our most important suppliers of

energy in the future. Production, storage and

use of electricity from natural energy sources

such as water, wind and the sun are graphically

illustrated using various models and numerous experiments.

These 2 solar modules not only guarantee more power; the many attach-

ment possibilities ensure flexible use in the models. The Gold Cap included

for power storage can release the stored power at a slower rate. This helps

student understand energy forms of the future.

Includes

10 models

(built one at a time)

, 320 parts, plus instructional book-

let, solar motor (2V), 2x solar modules

(1V; 400 mA)

, Gold Cap power

storage device

(2,7V/25 F)

, LED & on/off switch.

This set can be combined with the Fuel Cell Kit (Mfr. 520401) to

allow you to build additional models & operate them with a fuel

cell.
