What our customers say:
We used the Davinci Trebuchet
for Six Sigma DOE (Design Of Experiment)
training with excellent results. By varying two
factors : counterweight mass and release
loop size, we were able to design and perform the experiment in a reasonable
amount of time. Thanks. R.O. New Mexico more>>
