In a time when lasers are firmly back in fashion, appearing on tour with TakeThat and in new super-clubs throughout the world, Arcstream AV are working with the creme of laser development specialists to bring a new range of compact, state-of-the-art lasers to the British market, says the company.
Neil Dickinson, managing director of Arcstream AV explains: "Lasers have moved on so much from the systems which used to be available and Arx Series is an impressive piece of technology. They are very compact in comparison with older lasers and designed to be fixed to truss etc, so they can be integrated with the other lighting and PA facilities for a show."
The range includes single colour, blue, green, red and yellow lasers as well as multi-colour systems. Power options span from 1.5W up to 8W for the single colours and 6.5W to 13W for the multicolour systems.
The range includes the smallest whitelight laser system available on the market and a selection of lasers specifically designed for ease of use and maintenance, says the company. Each laser diode is replaceable singly in a non-hybrid concept to make maintenance easier and give the lasers a longer life.
Each laser has been designed for both event use and for permanent applications with a robust casing for the touring circuit and a stand-by mode for power saving fixed installations. The lasers feature full digital control through an "easy to use" touch screen menu.
