Every stage is unique, which means that each and every component not only has to be powerful, durable and efficient but must also fit together perfectly. Theatre and stage construction present special technical challenges. These challenges include high loads, such as those found on crossbeams, stage lighting, stage sets or entire stage platforms, which must move safely and reliably. Furthermore, technical equipment must operate quietly and out of sight, so not to interfere with the performance. igus offers energy supply systems, highly flexible cables and polymer bearings that meet these exact requirements. As igus provides modular systems and a wide range of components, it is possible to implement customised applications quickly and easily.
▲ Tech up
No slip ring: works with every kind of cable (electricity, data,
air or fluids)
Can also be equipped with corrugated tubes
Cost-effective in case of repair (replacement of individual components possible)
Adaptable to technological development due to simple replacement of the
cable used
▲ Tech up
Energy, data, air and liquids in ONE system
Often saves two or more other systems needed for transmitting data
Assembly times 88% shorter than those for the conventional standard solution with guide troughs
▲ Tech up
With a 36-month guarantee on all e-chain components that fail due to wear and tear
Guarantee that your application is designed exactly right
Always choose the most cost-effective e-chain that works safely
▲ Tech up
Very light iglidur polymer guide trough
Very safe – no exposed electrical conductors
guidelite ECO is available ready-to-install from €38/m (including trough, e-chain E2.15.050.048.0, filling 5 x single cores 6mm² plus bus or FOC cable)
The upper machinery includes lighting systems, PA loudspeaker systems and crossbeams. This is another area where igus® energy supply systems show what they can do.
igus® energy supply systems have proven their worth in the lower machinery of the stage. They are deployed in the power supply systems for stage platforms and turntables.
In the field of lighting equipment, not only e-chains® are used but also maintenance and lubrication-free linear guides, slewing ring bearings and plain bearings.
igus® products also prove their worth in other stage equipment systems. They are used, for example, in the winches and lifting devices that form part of the stage equipment.
All products are checked in the igus® test laboratory, the largest in the industry, under real-life conditions with regard to wear and durability. This makes it possible to accurately predict their service life. Upon request, igus® carries out customer tests so as to check the use of the products under completely unique conditions.
