New engineering products in 2024

Developed for theatre and stage use in accordance with DIN EN 17206 and DGUV Principle 315-390. Since last year, it has become an indispensable standard in theatre and stage technology. A further, more compact size with a travel of 10m and the new, optional accessories (ratchet, brake and connecting brackets for ceiling installation) now round off the product range. The extended length of the chain can be individually positioned using the ratchet. The brake ensures controlled winding. The connection brackets help with installation under the customer structure.

The motorised microphone winch fills a gap in the field of sound technology and is particularly versatile thanks to its compact size and lightweight specifications. The use of the twisterband eliminates the need for a slip ring. Uninterrupted sound transmission can thus be guaranteed, for an extension length of 30m. With the e-spool microphone stereo, two cables are guided in parallel so that two microphones can be connected. Both systems are supplied complete with motor and control system, the e-spool® microphone stereo also comes with a microphone rail for two microphones.

The new igus® standard for support plates and floating moving ends with identical hole pattern and the same attachment height for an even more installation-friendly connection of the e-chain system® to the moving end. The system is supplied with an integrated holder for strain relief and can be equipped with EC.P push/pull force monitoring.

Occasionally, the numerous standards do not fit into the available installation space and a custom rotating energy supply in a different installation size has to be elaborately designed. Configuring the perfect rotating energy supply system for your application is easy and takes just a few seconds - now possible with the new Rotation Module Configurator. With an outer diameter of 200mm to 2,800mm, you receive a finished standard in your desired size, which you can order directly online.

e-spool® energy chain system - For theatres and stages
Discover the energy chain system for theatres and stages based on DIN EN 17206 and DGUV principle 315-390. e-spool® is a cable guide with automatic retraction by spring tension. A new tension-optimised e-chain® is guided on a drum and uses an integrated retaining spring to ensure the correct length and tension of the energy supply system. The twisterband connects the drum to the shaft block, which serves as an interface to the permanently installed cable.
