About Creator Lodīšu pildspalva

Creator ir modulāra lodīšu pildspalva, kuru lietotāji paši samontē. Izgrebtais metāla korpuss atklāj skrūves, atsperes un mehānisko struktūru iekšpusē. Dažādu krāsu, formu un materiālu ārējie piederumi savienojas caur universālu saskarni, tāpēc detaļas saliekas kopā kā konstruktora klucīši, un katra pildspalva kļūst individuāla. Korpuss ir izgatavots pilnībā no metāla. Izņemot serdeņus un atsperes, lielākā daļa detaļu tiek pabeigtas vienā apstrādes procesā, un materiāli ir pilnībā pārstrādājami, kas samazina enerģijas patēriņu un materiālu izšķērdēšanu.
