One of our customers in the Netherlands develops lifting equipment for stage and entertainment technology. With these products, the company is setting new global standards for lifting 2- or 3-dimensional stage elements such as trusses for lighting and props, as well as podiums or entire performance surfaces.

This involves the movement of large, shifting loads in a work environment that is among the most demanding. This is because people work on and under moving loads here: actors, dancers, and musicians, as well as stage technicians and stage crew.

The loads suspended at two or more anchor points are moved by actuators developed by our customer. The total load, as well as the load at each individual attachment point, is recorded using measuring shackles we designed specifically for this application, analyzed by the accompanying software, and reported to the system developed by our customer. In the event of an overload or insufficient load, the system immediately analyzes the error and, if necessary, stops immediately to prevent further damage. The system thus meets the unique, uncompromising requirements of the entertainment industry.
