e-spool
Stage and concert performers struggling with microphone stands can put this in the past as a clever Microphone Motor Reeler from igus solves a common snag in the stage technology industry. Plus igus will show its e-spool flex and zigzag products at the ABTT 2023 show. When the lead singer takes the stage at Reading, […]
Increasingly complex technical challenges of stage productions need clever engineering. Learn about igus e-spools, zigzag systems and chainflex cables at The ABTT Show next week. Fantastic stage designs transform in seconds automatically. Giant mechanised props are lifted and rotated with ease. Lighting rigs, trusses and whole stage sets must be moved and stowed quickly and […]
Compact, desktop energy supply system from igus transmits power, data and media without interruption, and without a slip ring It is 169mm high, 163mm long, 78mm deep and weighs only 200 grammes, making the e-spool flex mini from igus one of the smallest and lightest cable and hose reels in the world. It carries energy, […]
Complicated stage applications can be implemented even in confined spaces and with high loads using moving energy supply systems such as the e-spool and the zig-zag systems. The challenge for every stage and set builder is to design and build the perfect stage. Every job is different because stages are not off-the-shelf. Every stage is […]
16th June, 2020 The new e-spool flex from igus moves a single cable or hose safely and stows it away quickly whilst retaining an end-to-end connection. This increases safety at manual workstations and on control pendants. The spiral guide allows quick installation of the cable into the reel and the e-spool flex is ready for […]
20th May, 2020 The CRM rotary module is part of the e-spool flex range and can guide any type of cable or hose, and even corrugated tubes. This compact module has a maximum rotation angle of 6480°, which is 18 full turns, for cable lengths up to 4.5m with a maximum speed of 180°/s and […]
15th April, 2020 The challenge for every stage engineer is to create the perfect set, while meeting all related safety and building code standards. In this week’s video, igus shows a range of technologies developed specifically for theatre and stage construction. Here, there are technically challenging requirements, which include high loads, such as those found […]
