TNK-50N

TNK-50N is a large engineering vehicle designed to reprocess waste concrete into permeable bricks. The vehicle is built from separate modules for crushing, collection and reprocessing. Waste concrete is collected, crushed, screened and cleared of impurities in the front unit, then moved to the rear unit, where additives are mixed in and the material is pressed and cured in a permeable brick mold. Carbon fiber and recycled plastics keep the weight low while adding strength. Driverless technology guides the working process, and additives can be refilled by hand through a side interface.

Laser Welding System

Laser Welding System is a machine for welding individual lithium batteries into power battery packs. The system uses a laser beam with high directivity and high power density as its heat source. An optical system focuses the beam on a small area to melt the joint in a very short time. A manipulator moves the parts, so welding is completed without manual work. The width, energy, peak power and repetition frequency of the laser pulse are controlled. The system measures 8075 by 1920 by 2110 millimetres and improves consistency and productivity.

Avalanche

Avalanche is a translucent engineered quartz surface made for kitchens, bathrooms and wall and floor coverings. The appearance of Avalanche is based on natural onyx stone, with long veins running through each slab. The surface transmits light, so a light source placed underneath turns the panel into an illuminated element. Avalanche is produced from recycled crystal quartz, glass and resin, pressed under vacuum and polished with diamond abrasives. The material is non-porous, scratch resistant and suitable for food contact.

CNC Machining Center

CNC Machining Center is a computer numerical control machine tool for metal processing. Milling, boring, drilling, tapping and thread cutting are combined in one device, so a single machine covers many production needs. A tool magazine holds various cutting and inspection tools, which are selected and changed automatically by the program during machining. The body measures 2090 by 3435 by 2678 millimeters and is made of metal. The form is intended to express precision and technology while meeting ergonomic requirements.

Designer / Brand: David Polasek Design: Plasma Torch Classification: Hardware Date: Thursday, 29 October 2026

Thermacut

Thermacut is a plasma torch designed for cutting metal. The torch is part of a plasma cutting system that uses gas and electricity to create a flame of 20000 degrees Celsius, cutting steel up to 40 millimetres thick. The ergonomic handle allows several holding positions. The torch can be held with a closed palm around the handle or with the thumb resting on the top of the handle. A safety trigger prevents unintended operation. The main case is made of plastic by injection moulding, and further parts are made of copper, brass, steel, ceramic and rubber.
