The expansion allows for future growth and provides room for the development of a fully-equipped electrical and electronic workshop which will facilitate the wiring of equipment racks for MCC’s audio-visual equipment racks and custom panels. The workshop will be used for the prototyping and testing of control systems used in stage rigging, AV and show control. A dedicated QA area will ensure that equipment meets all necessary standards before dispatch.
To mark the opening, the company demonstrated a number of items of stage equipment, including two scissor lifts (one using Serapid link chains and the other a single spiral drive from GALA), two of the new super-silent stage winches, operating under load to demonstrate their integral overload and slack rope detection systems. Two other stage hoists were also on display, together with a Batik/Guddland CAT computer control system.The company can now be found at 4 Kempson Way, Suffolk Business Park, Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, IP32 7AR.
