A 'perpetual motion machine' that can continue working without applying energy from outside is impossible in the real world. However, figurines that look like perpetual motion machines are being sold ...

Whether designers are improving a motion-centric machine or building a new one, it is essential they begin with motion control in mind. Then they can develop the design around the best way to get ...

Perpetual motion machines are impossible, right? They violate the laws of thermodynamics. And yet people have been trying to engineer one for centuries. YouTuber gzumwalt posted a video of what looks ...

Indexing systems remain the norm in many assembly applications, and those that involve dispensing a liquid into a product container are no exception. However, in many cases, continuous motion assembly ...

The search for a machine which moves on its own, forever, is almost as long as any ridiculously impossible quest in science. Now another denizen of the internet thinks he's getting close. Gizmodo ...

Last week, historian and bestselling author Timothy Snyder spoke to CBC's Matt Galloway in Vancouver. The conversation available online is mostly about his works. But what really stumped me was an ...

A perpetual motion machine operates in a continual repetitive motion, indefinitely; without someone providing an energy source. Considering this concept, imagine a business operating with little to no ...

While this is authentic footage of a genuine product, the "perpetual" marble machine does not operate infinitely without an additional energy source. Rather, it uses batteries and a magnet to create ...

Continuous-motion assembly engineering can be performed concurrently with new product design or to make existing manufacturing systems more efficient. John Giacopelli Increasingly, manufacturers of ...
