The flexible solution for professional photographic studios
    because...

  • the TECHNOPROFIL system has stability and a variety of applications.
  • the special sections can bridge distances up to 6 m, and even more, without additional brackets.
  • of a high degree of flexibility achieved by a variety of possibilities for assembly - ceiling, grider, wall mounting, or even as a cage.
  • of a variety of suspension devices available for light sources in all sizes, diffusors, reflectors.
  • all movements of travelling stages, carriages and suspension systems can be carried out manually or with a motor with radio or IR remote control.
  • reduced material and assembly expense make this complete solution much lower in price.

TECHNOPROFIL DUO-2

The basic element of the TECHNOPROFIL Overhead Rail System is a high-quality-drawn aluminium rail with 8 integrated T-grooves, multifunctional and with high carrying capacity. Its overall construction guarantees a very high bending strength and great torsional strength (stiffness). Available surfaces bright drawn anodized in its natural colour or in an applied colour. The high static stability in large range of span and support widths (see tables of loads). Makes fewer points of support necessary than are usual with ordinary systems. This means in practise: easy fitting to all types and shapes of ceilings, supporting beams, I-beams, runners, rails, etc. and easy assembly. For studios that do not have such supporting structures available, free-standing framing can be built with this system. The great span of profile often provides the only solution for a daylight studio.

The elegantly formed, rounded aluminium profile, with its right angled vertical overall contour, has a T-groove along each upper and lower surface, and 3 T-groove on each of the 2 sides. The many grooves provide many possible uses.

Moveable stages

TE 2160, TE 2170, TE 2180
Moveable stages consist of a TECHNOPROFIL Transvers Rail, which travel with 2 carriages in the grooves on the underside of the TECHNOPROFILE Ceiling Rails.
There are 2 kinds of moveable stages: moveable stages that travel parallel, consisting of standard carriages - TE 2160 - and standard profiles. Diagonal and axial moveable stages consist of a rotatable carriage - TE 2170 - and TECHNOPROFIL DUO Rails. For integrating systems there are double travelling stages, which consist of 2 double carriages and 2 standard profils kept at a fixed seperation from each other. For all travelling stage carriages that excel because of their excellent handling characteristics and high carrying capacity, only high-quality parts such as precision bearings are employed. Of course there are also transverse guide rollers, that prevent any tilting or sticking of the carriages, and thereby even permit flexible and easy locomotion and handling of large equipment.

Four-point suspension

ahgfl-xx
Four-point suspension for large space lights, e.g. maxi light, for use in the double travelling stages of the TECHNOPROFIL ceiling system. Teh extremely flat construction of teh four-point suspension means that little usable studio height is lost. Manual rotation with adjustable friction, loadcarrying capacity to approx. 750 N.

Aditional radio remote control necessary.


Option:
ahg 515 turntable drive unit, motor-driven
te 2850 drive, motor-driven




life ring

Large diffusing screens and space lights are integrated in the ceiling system by means of a four-point suspension. The height and the inclination of the space lights in both axes can be controlled from the camera by means of 4 motor-driven cable winches. The arrangement of the motors is carried out either with a live ring (360° rotation) or with 2 inclinable travelling stages (approx. 45° angle of inclination).

Construction to customers' specifications only because of the great variety of combinations of individual weights and sizes!

Motorized drive
As the underside of the TECHNOPROFIL is completely free of all brackets and fixing elements there are no problems in fitting an electric drive to the ceilingsystem; this is a must for studios with high ceilings. Motor drive with remote control cable for:

TE 2840 Motor ceiling telescope TE 2704 - 07
TE 2850 Three-point suspension AHG 511-xx
TE 2865 Travelling stage carriages TE 2165/TE2185
TE 2875 Travelling stage carriage TE 2176

Remote control

All cable remote controls for motors can be replaced by radio remote control systems.

rc 256-8

radio remote control unit, 8 channels, complete with transmitter, receiver, power output element

rc 256-16
radio remote control unit, 16 channels, complete with transmitter, receiver, power output element


Plastic rail
TE 4001
A plastic flexible strip can be flange-mounted to the side of each TECHNOPROFIL rail. This enables the mobile supply of the flash generators, motor ceiling telescopes and drives by means of incorporated current collectors. The guarded design offers the highest degree of safety, it is SEV tested and complies with the relevant VDE regulations.
