Extra Digital Wooden Constructor "Electric Tank", Educational Model

All about the product

The wooden educational STEM constructor “Electric Tank” is being assembled. The assembled toy moves forward, demonstrating engineering principles applied in the real world. The constructor helps children get acquainted with the basics of engineering, mechanics, and electricity in the simplest way.

Features:
It is a constructor, toy, and educational tool in one. This practical developmental toy allows children to build their own working tank while understanding the principles of mechanics, movement, and electricity operation. The assembled battery-powered tank can move and, due to its rubber tracks, it can overcome small obstacles. It is possible to observe how the rubber tracks grip different surfaces (e.g., why it moves better on tiles than on slippery glass). If the axle is too slippery or the track is too loose, the tank will remain in place, even though the motor will spin. The child must understand how to ensure good traction.
During assembly, the child develops fine motor skills and precision, and the interactive learning method encourages creativity, problem-solving, and interest in how things work.
Made from high-quality, non-toxic wood. The wooden parts are smooth and durable, assembled without glue.
The assembled toy can be painted, decorated, and given a unique appearance.
Easy assembly: simple and clear instructions allow children to assemble the toy with minimal adult supervision, making the set suitable for both independent work and activities with parents.
STEM (Science + Technology + Engineering + Mathematics) is an educational approach that integrates science, technology, engineering, and mathematics into a cohesive learning model to prepare the younger generation for a rapidly evolving technological world.
This is an excellent choice for gifts, as well as for schools and educational institutions, where simple, reliable, and clearly functioning educational models are needed.

Operating Principle:
The model has an electric motor (battery-powered), which transfers rotational motion to the wheels, allowing the assembled tank to move on its own. The movement is turned on and off with a switch on the top of the tank.
Circuit creation: By connecting the battery holder, switch, and motor, the child learns about a closed electric circuit.
Direct drive: The electric motor directly rotates one of the wheels via its axle.
Friction force: The motor axle directly contacts the wheel, and the wheel with the rubber track, and it is the friction force that moves the entire mechanism forward.
Educational value: The child is introduced to electrical circuits and mechanical engineering.
Purpose: for learning at home, in the classroom, and for project activities.
