Mechanical Library



You are here! From our green campus to our creative community, Pratt is the place to be your very best.

"The Mechanical Library is an open-source museum exhibit and curriculum that introduces middle and high school students to mechanical engineering. It was made in partnership with NYC First, a leading STEM education not for profit, that supports underserved NYC public school students.
Each motorized mechanism has a QR code to a web page that shows how the mechanisms are used with photos, videos, 3D, & lego models.
The cabinet stands 6 feet tall, by 32"" wide and 12"" deep, with information panels on either side measuring 24"" wide. The cabinet runs on normal 120v power, drawing under 5 amps.
