Handwheel butterfly climbing exhibit
Turn the handwheels and follow butterfly markers climbing along three vertical cord paths. This photographed gallery version supplements the existing design reference.
THE PRODUCT IN MOTION
See it work.
Handwheel rotation drives cord paths that raise butterfly markers. Compare the three channels, the direction of movement and the reset sequence; the activity demonstrates rotary input and linear travel rather than flapping wings.

Follow the handwheel and cord paths.
Handwheel rotation drives cord paths that raise butterfly markers. Compare the three channels, the direction of movement and the reset sequence; the activity demonstrates rotary input and linear travel rather than flapping wings.
- 01
Choose a handwheel
Identify one handwheel and the butterfly marker on its corresponding cord path.
- 02
Turn and follow the marker
Turn that handwheel as directed and watch the marker travel along the vertical cord.
- 03
Compare input and travel
Compare the turning direction at the handwheel with the marker’s linear travel, then follow the labelled reset sequence.

Explore the supportDelivery, installation & after-sales terms
- Payment
- A 50% deposit is payable after the contract is signed. The remaining balance is paid after acceptance and before dispatch, so full payment is received before dispatch. Payment methods are agreed in the contract.
- Packaging & transport
- Metal shipping cases or multilayer wood-panel shipping cases. Transport arrangements and costs are agreed to suit the project.
- Materials & painted finish
- Common material options include Q235 steel, stainless steel, aluminium alloy, PVC, acrylic, engineering plastics. The combination is selected for each configuration. Marine anti-corrosion paint with a piano-gloss automotive paint finish. Applied to painted parts.
- Typical power · powered versions
- Standard products: 100–500 W; oversized installations: 1,000–5,000 W. Typical ranges for powered versions. Confirm the selected model and final connected load.
- Product maintenance
- Use the supplied-version inspection and cleaning instructions. Check controls, fasteners and protective enclosures before operation; scheduled maintenance is every 30 days.
- Installation & training
- Complimentary training is available on site or remotely, according to project needs. If installation or on-site after-sales service is not included in the product price, the customer pays the actual travel expenses incurred, unless the contract provides otherwise.
- Factory acceptance & handover
- Mid-production and pre-dispatch checks are provided. Factory acceptance can take place in person at the factory or through acceptance videos. Installation and operating videos, written installation and operating instructions, drawings and a spare-parts list are provided.
- Complimentary parts
- 24 months of complimentary spare-parts support, starting when the exhibit is handed over for use. Covers faults not caused by the user. User-caused or deliberate damage is excluded. Exhibit Engineers pays the shipping cost of complimentary spare parts during the 24-month support period.
- Warranty & repair labour
- The whole-exhibit warranty period and repair labour scope and charges are agreed in the contract.
Can we discuss a prototype or sample for a custom version?
Yes. Prototype testing and sample fabrication are available for custom projects. Discuss which functions or features you need to review for your version. The scope, cost and schedule are agreed for the project.
How prototype testing & samples workDoes the media show a physical installation?
Yes. The gallery and video use company-provided photographs and recordings. Project drawings are identified separately.
Can this configuration be adapted to our venue?
Share the intended audience, room plan and the aspects of this reference you want to retain. The final scope and technical interfaces are agreed for your project.
