Over the past two decades researchers have been analyzing this component to calculate how well the Antikythera mechanism functioned. Two major problems with the gear train have emerged.

[Dave] decided to build a wooden version of the Antikythera Mechanism as a proof ... all the modern theories of the device’s gear train. The entire system is made out of 6mm birch plywood ...

The Antikythera mechanism plotted the positions ... but this is at the end of a more complicated gear train. It's an add-on," said Freeth. Of course, the mechanism itself was much more significant ...

The Antikythera mechanism's design uses several ... Despite these shortcomings, Price identified a gear train—a set of linked gears—that calculated the average position of the moon on any ...

but he noticed there was a gear wheel embedded in it. It turned out to be an ancient mechanical device. The Antikythera mechanism is now housed in the National Archaeological Museum of Athens.

Moreover, “since the Antikythera Mechanism has a single input of motion and all gears are interconnected, the jamming of any gear pair would bring the entire mechanism to a halt,” they write.

Thought to be more than 2,000 years old, the Antikythera mechanism is widely ... which looked at the shape of the mechanism's gear teeth and the manufacturing errors that may have been introduced ...

Andrew Carol, who has a passion for mechanical devices and Lego, built a working version of the Antikythera Mechanism using Legos. Andrew was working with fixed gear sizes so he needed more gears ...
