Research and Development Story of the ARGO Project
The Argo project began in 2008 when it was created and started the phases of design and testing. From 2008 to 20010 has been developed the first version of the project, while from 2010 to 2012 has been developed the second version. Organizational logistical and financial difficulties has froze the project from 2012 to today. In the pictures below you have been reported some examples both of the drawings CAD-CAM version design and for the second version also the realization of physical prototypes that were then used for testing on the field.
First version of the Project
The below pictures illustrates the basic version now abandoned that initially had been planned and that had encountered operating problems especially in the management of the DC / DC feeder.
Second version of the Project
This is the current operating version, although
there are still problems of strength and resistance to current
transients. The project, while being spent time, is under
development that the need for a specific action of engineering
especially in the choice of the quality of the electronic
components that constitute the power supply. The idea of Argos as
invention is unique in the world for a product that has never been
conceived and presents logistical challenges are difficult to
overcome.
Production of prototypes
The prototypes of the project were built in
a small factory in Chivasso near Turin, Italy near the railway
line.
The limited resources
available to the company does not, however, have limited the
quality of the instrumentation built as you can see in the
photos.
