Tech Development


Technology. The substance of modern civilization. The foundation for future innovation.

See Development Guide for more information.

Scope

The time is 2013. The centre is Factor e Farm.

Our current technological capacity is basic software, basic biological, basic electronics, basic mechanical, and basic hydraulics.


Consider organization, maintenance, and sourcing. They are the general development accelerators that stand to significantly reduce development time and risk.


The CNC Circuit Mill enables complex circuit production - the key to advanced electronics. Inverters, welders, power supplies are possible.

The CNC Torch Table, CNC Mill, and CNC Lathe enable advanced mechanical production.


Advanced electrical and mechanical capacities enable deeper technologies.

The Induction Furnace enables material heating for hardening, forming, rolling, and casting a wide variety of substances.
