Robe Spiider WashBeam available to hire

Posted on by stageadmin

Robe Spiider WashBeam, a superbright next generation of LED WashBeam luminaires, using 18x 30 Watt and 1x 60 Watt LEDs and combining it with a very efficient 12,5:1 zoom optical system. Ranging from tight 4° Beam to wide 50° Wash, makes the product the most powerful LED fixture on the market.

Beautiful convergence of hard edge in-air effects, punchy beams and smooth homogenized wash is all encapsulated in the unique Spiider.

Rich colors of 19 powerfull RGBW LEDs can create charming wash light with velvety smooth transitions thanks to internal 18bit LED dimming system.

Dynamic video effects are easily achieved by mapping individual pixels and controlled by DMX desk. Or by media servers via sACN with internal HTP merging, DMX or by Kling-Net protocol.

Unique central piece with Robe exclusive Flower Effect is driven by 60W RGBW LED multichip for new innovative sharp multicoloured spikes of light. Rotating in both directions at variable speed, adding another new visual effect to the show.

The City of the Unexpected 2016

Posted on by stageadmin

Stage Lighting Services Ltd Cardiff were recently contracted by National Theatre Wales. We provided specialist staging solutions and lighting for The City of the Unexpected.

Our Production Management team have been able to work closely with the client. From producing CAD drawings to installing the staging structures using our Steeldeck Staging. Our Production Manager for this project was able to oversee the process from start to finish.

The City of the Unexpected 2016 had stages located in various sites across Cardiff, including a stage to fill the fountain at City Hall. 

We were also contracted to supply the lighting for the performance outside City Hall. This included the supply of Robe Moving Heads; including our new Robe Spikies. We also supplied power distribution, production electricians, lighting technicians, communications and followspots.

Are you planning your next event? If you would like us to create a custom truss structure or Staging design. Please contact us

New Robe Spikie Washbeams have arrived

Posted on by stageadmin

The Robe Spikie LED WashBeam is a small, super fast LED WashBeam, which utilises a single 60W RGBW light source with a specially designed 110mm wide front lens producing a solid beam. The fixture quickly zooms from a soft wide 28° wash to a tight sharp-edged 4° beam or one of two new stunning air effects.

The new Robe Spikie LED WashBeam innovative Flower Effect creates sharp multicoloured spikes of light, rotating in both directions at variable speed. Additionally, a unique Beam Effect Engine transforms the output into a dynamic ray of three narrow beams, creating another new visual effect to the show.

The Continuous rotation of pan and tilt gives new dynamic elements across the stage.

The super strong light-output can be maximised by using ROBE‘s unique HotSpot Control system together with the linear iris to create very powerful beam effects. An innovative patented cooling system ensures the best lamp operating temperatures and allows DMX controlled noise reduction. Users have complete control of all features of this fixture, making it ideal for environments where noise levels are critical and light output requirements are high.

Robe Robin Pointes added to stock

Posted on by stageadmin

Due to popular demand we have just added more Robe Robin Pointes for hire

The Robe Robin Pointe is very bright and super-fast with a sharp parallel beam that cuts through the air and across video with ease.

The Pointe can project a static or rotating glass gobo to produce precision in-air and surface images with an even focal plane.

Tight or at full 20 degree zoom, the output is crystal clear and brilliant. Add in either rotating, 6 way linear or 8 way circular, prisms to create wide reaching effects across any set.

Drop in the frost filter and use any of the 13 rich colours to create a smooth even wash. The Point has an output far greater in size, quality and power than seems possible from it’s small, lightweight body – this is due to the efficient short arc 280 W discharge source and the Robe optical configuration.
