manus® 2011
Wave machine
If it sometimes spills
This machine produces waves in an aquarium that holds 24,000 litres. Every minute, one bucket of 300 litres is emptied into the aquarium, creating the wave motion. The bucket‘s tilting mechanism is mounted with an igubal® pedestal bearing ESTM and a stainless steel shaft. Since the tank is filled with salt water, the components used may not be susceptible to corrosion.
