Hydraulic Lift Project (x15 projects)

$245.00

Students will explore the principles of hydraulics and pneumatics as they design and build a functional lift system capable of raising and lowering objects.🏗️

Set in the fictional city of STIIX-Ville, students act as consulting engineers for a local construction company in need of innovative machines to assist with heavy lifting on job sites. Through this project, students will investigate fluid pressure, mechanical advantage, and system design while documenting their process and testing the performance of their prototype.🫰

Although this specific project is not on there, check out our optional Augmented Reality app, STIIXVille. In it, students can bring concepts & careers to life for 6 other of our other STIIX projects.🏙️

  • Students Served: 15-45 students
  • Kit Size: 14.75"x11.5"x6"

Why Educators Choose
Hands-On Engineering

Students don't learn engineering by watching someone else engineer. These bundles put the materials in their hands and the challenge in front of them. Students investigate a concept, design a solution, build it, test it, learn from what happened and try again. That's where the learning happens.
