PL+S 2018: TMB and Company NA offer innovation
- Details
Now a tradition at select Messe Frankfurt shows, Solaris Flare IP HD outdoor LED fixtures can be seen lighting the Grandhotel Hessischer Hof, opposite the Messe main entrance, every night during the show. HD Single-head and HR dual-head versions of Flare IP are available for a variety of architectural applications and can be seen up close at the show stand.
This year TMB introduces the ProPlex IQ Tester, the FIRST Ethernet tester for entertainment production. Inspired by input from top production and staging professionals, the IQ Tester is a true “all in one” device, and a watershed addition to the ProPlex range of Data Distribution Devices.
Several additional new products can be seen, including the new Flare Q+ Rayzr. Following on the success of the Flare and Flare LR fixtures, this new razor-thin Flare, with its patent-pending, 15-degree indexing PreSet Yoke, offers Flare brightness, smoothness, performance and control in a smart, super low-profile, “blade” format. Flexible mounting and joining options are available for scenery, truss, pipe, and floor. Vertically hang coupled units up to 5m in total length. Rayzr has both silent and super-bright modes, and is available in 50 and 100cm lengths.
The new ProPlex DIN Rail FloppyDrives offer a complete, quality range of DMX control for LED tape and neon of all kinds, and the Digital FloppyDrive version provides RGB(W) “pixel” control for Digital FloppyFlex LED neon. A new Multiple Universe Digital FloppyDrive is yet another new addition to the range.
Also introduced at Frankfurt this year is the latest addition to the Solaris Mozart range. The new Mozart One is a decorative set-lighting fixture with a single RGBW pixel. A unique, wide-angle serrated concentric lens, plus 8-bit colour dimming, and 1200Hz flicker-free refresh rate makes this Solaris addition worthy of the name “Mozart.”
First shown at Light + Building last month, TMB’s new FloppyTape range is a comprehensive selection of professional-grade LED tapes.
TMB’s product partners, Company NA has built on their extensive experience in show production and design to become one of the industry’s highest quality, innovative manufacturers. The Solaris and ProPlex ranges comprise a selection of bright, powerful, LED fixtures and highly sophisticated data devices that are now used and accepted by top touring, TV, theatrical and installation professionals worldwide.
