Criterion Turntable

Design Choices

Do we need a chassis? Do we need Vacuum holdown? Do we need a nested platter? What motion control technology can we use to effectively drive the platter and reduce the complexity? What other materials are capable of getting the desired result?

The methods and powerful software suites employed to design the Caliburn system were once again employed.

The team was given the opportunity to start from a clean slate whilst benefiting from the immense body of knowledge that had been gathered during the design and production of the Caliburn-Cobra System.

Our goal was to discover how far we could push the boundaries once again. The daunting challenge issued was to try to recreate the performance of the Caliburn-Cobra System if this was possible under the constraints of the design-brief.
