Join us on a journey from the extraction of magnetism from iron ore to its application in the latest and most efficient high-tech electric motors!

An exhibition about the power of electromagnetism

Discover how magnetic force is created from iron, copper and electricity and learn more about:
- Magnetizable iron and its geometries to maximize force
- The role of copper in conducting electricity
- Electricity: where it comes from and how it is transported
- The comparison: "gasoline and spark plug" versus "iron, copper and electricity"
- Generate electricity yourself and experience the power up close

Feel the fascinating power of magnetism at work in many of our electrical devices.

The exhibition provides exciting insights into the basics of electromagnetism and offers a lively approach based on experiments by the University of Applied Sciences Northwestern Switzerland and Technorama Winterthur. We are showing numerous exclusive objects such as Maxon's Marsmobile and the hub motor of the "mythen" electric racing car from ETH Zurich and Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts.

The vivid and interactive exhibits invite you to understand and participate. Feel and experience the power of electromagnetism!

Outside opening hours, we offer special guided tours for groups as well as special tours for elementary school, upper secondary schools and vocational schools. If you are interested, please contact us at magnetika@kaisermatt.ch or 062 867 92 77
