Superseding previous methods, which are unable to meet the requirements of load capacity, functionality and reliability, the Electro Kabuki has been developed following extensive consultation with the theatre and events industries, says the company.
The Electro Kabuki has been designed to reliably release weights of up to 50kg and is suitable for applications where the requirement is to discharge or drop drapes, dummies or cables on cue as a straight drop or at any angle. Also suitable for very light loads, the Electro Kabuki is supplied off-the-shelf with all elements ready to connect and operate having been assembled and tested prior to despatch.
Using standard voltages 24v DC and 230v AC, the weatherproof Electro Kabuki is supplied with quick-fit, weatherproof 'supply' and 'link' cable connectors so that the mechanism can be daisy chained in order to drop large drapes or items. There is no longer any need for a special bracket as the new mounting incorporates threaded locations to take M12 bolts (max depth 20mm). Doughty half couplings can be used to make a quick fixing to scaffold size tubes, adds the company.
