Hesse & Knipps BJ 920 Bondjet 920 Heavy Wire Bonder | eBay

Allegedly this was the unit they started building batteries with. Any takers?

Hey, thats the same Ebayer that I purchased a complete Warp 9 / Alta front wheel assembly from a couple weeks ago! It even included the Alta spacers.....

Would this help solve battery pack issues? Could we crowdsource funds for this?

 

[OneLapper]

After making a couple of calls, this is the exact wire bonder that Alta used before going to the CNC wire bonder.

Crowd sourcing to buy it is an option. We'd need to find someone willing to take delivery of it and use it. And even at that, we'd need to charge some type of fee for using it to recover our costs.

Let's explore this idea........

A legal attempt was previously made to create a dialogue with Armanino about potentially arranging a service company with a conditional license to the technology to support and maintain these bikes through a designated entity. If that would have happened such an idea to crowdfund the purchase of equipment to support that effort could have been a possibility. Unfortunately the communication lines for that effort went dead and now it’s too late.

Yep. I bought a front and rear from them.

NayBay says the thing is in Campbell... Local to a bunch of us. Interesting.

Sounds like it would look good in @Alta05 ’s garage....

Dealer version of Multitool is almost useless at this point.
