Our favorite airship is due to take to the skies once again and with a spotted test history its being closely watch by many! After a rather unfortunate nosedive in august last year the Airlander has yet to grace the skies since.
Don't you always hate it when you have a machine designed with wear-parts that cost a fortune to replace? Well Sunshine Sugar sure do. They have a machine that removes unwanted packaging from sugar products up to 100,000 times a day, only the arms that remove the packaging need replacing regularly, and the OEM supplier is charging a cool $1400 ($1000 US) for the privilege.

What We've been working on!Bit of a self promo post but jut wanted to let you know how we're getting on, we now have several new tools! Thermal ExpansionSolar Roadways, is it doable?An Idaho based company has come up with a novel product to make our roads safer; the solar roadway. This takes the standard solar panel and re-engineers it to become a durable, truck proof, self-illuminated paving block capable of replacing the standard asphalt we see everywhere.
The solar roads are designed with benefits over traditional concrete and asphalt, such as in-built LEDs for safety, pot-hole free (that one’s a big plus!), easy maintenance, protects wildlife and of course due to the generated electricity, a return on investment. Welcome! This is our new website, where we hope you'll find what you're looking for! What We DoAt Epsilon Engineer we're working on creating content and reference material for engineers and makers alike to help a new generation (and old!) to realise their potential.
What we plan is to become the central information hub for everything engineering, 3d printing, design and innovation. We want to help you with our tools to responsibly and physically create your designs, and perhaps help you with exam season too! |
