Lifting equipment for stages

Podium control systems, control cables, orchestra podiums, floodlight controls system, portal bridges and…

For years we have been realizing the widest possible range of control tasks in theatre and stage technology with our products:

  • Cable and machine pulls at the Moscow Drama School
  • Backdrop podiums and suspended backdrops in Lübeck Theater
  • Floodlight control in the Karlsruhe Badisches Staatstheater
  • Light pulls, portal bridge, backdrops, curtain etc. in the Wuppertal theatre house

For example, backdrop control in the Municipal Theater of Hagen

32 MOCON100 control 32 suspended backdrops, providing automatic control for every change of scenery or while the curtain is going up. Before the show opens, the stage manager uses the drive lever to defines the groups in which scenery walls and other props are to be altered simultaneously and at different speeds. Then he can insert comments on the scene changes. During the performance the program steps just have to be called up.

The 32 control systems are networked by a CAN bus. One PC and two monitors provide the optimum overview. At all times the stage manager can see a graphic representation of the current status and the next destination of the backdrops.
