2013 Proofs of Concept

  • Nominal infinite scalability of box-beam structural power cubes has been demonstrated, with 3 Power Cubes on LifeTrac for a total of 75 hp.
  • Modular box beam tubing works for building frames
  • One day build of second GVCS machine, the simplified ironworker metal shear.
  • Reduction of prototyping cycles from months to days on the ironworker machine.
  • Modular hydraulics expanded to quick-connect cylinders (in addition to valves and motors)

2012 Proofs of Concept

  • Modular hydraulic couplers and modular hydraulic valves

2011

  • Quick-connect high torque wheel demonstrated (1000 lb force)

2009 Proofs of Concept

  • Power cube demonstrated as a modular power source for mobile machines - it could run LifeTrac 1 after original engine went out
