Europe - Sixty82 has announced the launch of the latest in its TPM Series of super-strong box truss, the TPM39 Series.
Sharing all the benefits and features of the TPM29 Series, the new TPM39 is up to 25% stronger – yet fully compatible and interchangeable with – M39 box truss, with all the reliability and versatility the industry expects from Sixty82 products.
The TPM Series is known for its universal features of increased strength, stability and support, giving it the ability to withstand more load without deforming. Designed and manufactured in Holland, the extrusion process ensures a precise and uniform shape that is 100% square with a perfect fit which, combined with stronger alloy truss spigots, are key factors in improved strength and endurance. The extruded end frame also makes the TPM Series bounce- and smash-proof.
Sixty82 has introduced a new feature to TPM39 by the removal of the end diagonal, an innovation which brings major benefits. Removal of the end diagonal means the smaller TPM29 Series can fit inside TPM39 structures for more efficient transportation and storage options. This simple adaptation reduces the volume of space required for shipping and maximises the quantity of truss that can be transported in shipping containers. This in turn ensures a cost-effective and more environmentally friendly transport solution, especially over long distances.
The new TPM39 Series was given its first showing at the start of September when Sixty82 revealed it to its expanding international distribution network at a bespoke event held for its exclusive dealers at the Sixty82 head offices in Drachten. Representatives from over 35 distributors attended the two days to enjoy a packed schedule that included a factory tour, a presentation focusing on the Future of Sixty82, feedback sessions and discussions on market trends as well as technical product presentations.
Feedback on the new TPM39 Series was universally positive: "The TPM39S truss is a game-changer,” says Richárd Pálfi, sales director of D.P. Music Kft. “Its increased strength and clever design, especially the removal of the end diagonal, will allow us to offer more efficient and cost-effective rigging solutions. We're excited to introduce this to the Hungarian market."
Giannis Tziakos, owner of Omikron Control SA, confirmed that the dealer day proved an ideal introduction to the new product, stating: "Sixty82's new TPM39 Series truss impressed us with its strength and versatility. The distributor day gave us valuable insights into its capabilities. We're particularly excited about how it integrates with existing M39 systems, offering our Greek customers a forward-thinking solution for their rigging needs."
Available from September 2024, TPM39 Series offers a choice of four form factors: TPM39L Ladder truss, TPM39S Square truss, TPM39RP Rectangular truss and TPM39SMB Square Middle Beam truss.
