New Touring Racks for Kinetic Applications from Movecat
Movecat of Nufringen has introduced new touring racks for setups with 16, 24 and 32 chain hoists. The equipment is due to commence shipping in the spring of 2009. Currently Movecat's touring racks are undergoing practical tests.
The product developers had been instructed to find an all-in-one solution and worked closely with a number of specialists in major rigging projects. These compact racks, which accommodate not only the controller but also the control panel and power station, are their response.
The features of the new touring racks include automatic phase and rotating field detection and switching, Up and Down master runs with only one switch, the illuminated display of all operating conditions (such as faults and run directions), and the possibility of connecting external enabling (‘dead-man') switches. Up to 256 drives can be linked in one network, which represents a considerably more affordable solution than the corresponding number of individual controllers. The M-Link system is also compatible with the Movecat MPC 4ED8 and 4ID8 controllers (both well known in the industry) and can therefore be integrated with existing controllers from the smaller series.
