Movetech UK has supplied a revolve to rotate 'Little Willie' (pictured right), the world's first ever tank at the Tank Museum in Bovington, Dorest, UK.
'Little Willie' is the centrepiece of the new 'At Close Quarters' exhibition, which showcases 33 key vehicles from the museum's collection.
Nik Wyness, PR and marketing officer for the museum, says: "Because it is constantly revolving, the turntable helps communicate the significance of the vehicle, and allows visitors to see it and appreciate it better than ever before."
The 6.5m diameter, 15 tonne capacity turntable is part of Movetech UK's extensive product range of turntables and PoP movement.
