All are in keeping with the company's ongoing "Think of the Future - Consider Nature" commitment to producing genuinely more sustainable technology.
The mega-bright ROBIN 1200 LEDWash utilises the same multichip LEDs as the Award-winning ROBIN 600 LEDWash and smaller ROBIN 300 LEDWash, in an intensely bright package featuring 61 x LEDs in total, in four concentric rings. It has all advantages of fabulously smooth mixing, the true whites and the homogenised light engines of the LEDWash 300 and 600, along with light weight, full functionality and low power consumption.
The ROBIN DLX Spot is the world's first LED based spot moving head with an RGBW LED light source, says the company. The output - in colours - is higher in intensity than a discharge source 575W unit, but the average power consumption is just 250W. Its optical system produces rich colours with no shadows and it has a smooth, high quality light output plus a versatile zoom of 10-40 degrees. In physical height and size, it is close to the ROBIN 300/600 Spot/Wash/Beam series.
Previewed will be the ROBIN Sniper. This is a new mega-bright beam fixture producing a tight parallel 230mm fat beam. The fixture uses the same Philips Platinum 35 lamp as the ROBIN MMX Spot, but its output is 2 million Lux at a 5m distance, 5,000 Lux at 100m or 50 Lux at one kilometre away. "The Sniper is replacing the old Xenon lamp based products with a power consumption of around 2KW, and needs only an expedient 950W in total," says Robe.
Other new products will be the CityFlex and CityLine 48 LED units, which also use the latest Cree LED chipsets. The CityFlex48 is a powerful customizable unit that can quickly be configured into several physical formats. The CityLine 48 - is a linear version of the CityFlex with individually controllable LED pixels - great for mapping effects.
In addition to these new products, Robe's double decker stand will show the ROBIN MMX Spot - the first in the new generation of 1200 Series fixtures, together with the award winning ROBIN LEDWash 600, currently Robe's fastest selling light of all time; the ROBIN 600 Pure White, a dedicated white version of the LEDWash 600; and the very handy ROBIN 300 LEDWash.
The popular ROBIN 300 and 600 Series' of discharge source luminaires - featuring Spot, Wash and Beam versions - will also be prominent, along with Robe's innovative DT Series of Digital moving projectors.
