Chainmaster Jumbo-Lift
Chainmaster’s Jumbo-Lift electric chain hoists are developed specifically to lift very heavy loads such as video cubes. Depending upon the type of load and the safety requirements, models are available offering everything from simple contactor control to variable-speeds and control in accordance with the IEC-61508 / SIL3 safety standard. Additional fall-back solutions maximise operational availability. For horizontally mobile systems, special trolleys are available with contactor control or in the form of VarioTrolleys with positioning systems. And for data transmission without trailing cables, various technologies can be exploited to ensure that any project can be realised in accordance with the highest technical standards.

Duratruss has recently expanded its portfolio of professional truss and rigging solutions with a series of three dedicated support structures for LED video walls. The DuraTruss LED Frame 1 is the smallest standard system, allowing for easy and fast assembly. The frame can support an LED Screen of 5x3m with a maximum weight of 1,200kg. This frame is built from DT44/2, DT34/4 and DT34/2 trussing elements, measures 4.62 x 6.35 x 8.49m (WxDxH) and has a construction weight of 650kg. The DuraTruss LED Frame 2 is designed to support and an LED Screen of 6x4m with a maximum weight of 2,000kg. This frame is built from DT54, DT44/4 and DT44/2 trussing elements, measures 8.25 x 5.72 x 9.0m (WxDxH) with a construction weight of 850kg. The Duratruss LED Frame 3 can accommodate an LED screen of 8x6m with a maximum weight of 3,000kg. The frame is built from DT74, DT44/4 and DT44/2 trussing elements, measures 12.3 x 8.2 x 10.2m (WxDxH) with a construction weight of 1,200kg.

Fenix Stage AC-613
FENIX Stage has developed simple, flexible, light and fast way of setting structures. AC-613 is a double hinge accessory that has been created to replace most of the angular corners. It allows 29x29cm squared trusses (SQ-29) to be connected with a 0-70° opening. Weighing 620kg, AC-613 saves space and time in storage, transport and assembly. By removing the central safety pin, the user can regulate the angle and perform multiple projects such as sloping and gable roofing, scalable in size without making customised trussing sections. Made of 10mm aluminium EN AW-6082 T6 thickness, it has two adjustable ribs to fix structures with the desired angle. It also has a safety pin plus two screws that secure the top plate to the bottom plate, providing greater robustness and therefore a greater security to the trussing construction. This product is also available for 40x40cm squared trusses (AC-614) and in its maximum opening version, for those who need to reach up to 145° (AC-623 for 29x29cm trusses) (AC-624 for 40x40cm trusses). All of them are available in silver and black.

GUIL ABZ-55
Marquees are becoming increasingly popular for many kinds of events. However, when professionals want to hang sound, lighting or any other kind of accessories without having using floor stands, problems often arise. GUIL has designed two models of adjustable clamps specifically for tents, which are hooked on to marquee structures, allowing the placement of devices directly on the marquee beams, leaving the entire surface of the marquee available for the event. This practical hook adaptor for marquees ref. ABZ-55 has an adjustable design so that it can be perfectly attached to marquee beam of 80mm to 110mm wide. It comes with bolt and ergonomic metal knob to attached fixtures securely. The GUIL marquee clamp combines strength and durability with a high level of safety, making it the perfect accessory for marquee set-ups.

SIXTY82 ALPHA82
ALPHA82 from SIXTY82 is a brand-new patented truss concept. Bespoke ALPHA connectors can be connected to expertly designed ALPHA ladder trusses (sizes 52 and 101) to form a 3D truss with similar strength to standard trusses with the same dimensions. The ALPHA connector contains M12 size slots on all four sides, allowing accessories such as lifting eyes, clamps, brackets, curtain tracks, trolley beams braces and/or machinery to be connected. Creativity can run free, using either SIXTY82’s ‘standard’ ALPHA connector or a custom configuration to create the desired shape. The 52 truss can be adjusted from 30cm wide to 80cm wide with just a couple of ALPHA connectors and no further investment in truss parts. This results in a flexible inventory, a lower storage cost due to less warehouse space and, ultimately, a better ROI.

HOF MLT²
With setup and dismantling times drastically decreased and crews much smaller compared to the pre-Covid era, the MLT² (or Moving Light Truss²) from HOF offers a solution. Handling can be done with one person only, as it requires only one person to connect the truss to the dolly. Up to 10 dollies without truss can be stacked on top of one another. The only limiting factor here is the height of the user, not the dolly itself. Also, setup and dismantling times can be drastically decreased as the moving lights remain in the MLT² during transportation – shock absorbing wheels from Blickle help to protect them; ideal for both heavy and top-heavy loads up to 380kg. Finally, with the MLT², the user can create curved truss systems without extra components. Screw the forks out of the trusses by up to 70mm (in total 140mm) to create vertical or horizonal circles. This feature offers maximum flexibility without having to buy special spacers for creating circles with different diameters.

TAF FALCONN
The FALCONN connection is based on a simple locking system that does not require usage of hammers and safety pins. There are two safety rings at each connection – the first one locks the connector in position and the second one secures the connection. This double locking system ensures proper strength and safety of the connection part. It is silent while building up or breaking down and only thing the user needs to make the connection work is the FALCONN connector and their hands. No other connecting accessories are needed.
