J.R. Clancy takes PowerLine to LDI 2011

19 October 2011

USA - J.R.Clancy will showcase its most recent advance in theatrical rigging at LDI 2011 in Orlando later this month.

Clancy's new PowerLine line shaft hoist features a lighter backbone than the standard line shaft, making it easier to install with no reduction in strength or durability. The new hoist brings users an expanded choice of brake options(electric or over speed) and drums (3/16" or ¼") to meet virtually any standard application. The PowerLine series includes Clancy's heavy-duty transmissions and universal joints for longevity and safety.

"PowerLine has improved durability, easier installation, more optionsand complete safety features-all at a more affordable price," said Eric McAfee, Clancy domestic sales manager. "The PowerLine is so innovative that it has been nominated for the PLASA Members' Choice Products Award. It's a winner for our dealer partners and their customers."

Also at Booth 215 will be Clancy's SceneControl 500 3D motorized rigging control console. SceneControl's touch screen control gives users "super-fast programming capability, while its 3D display provides instant information on hoist location and movement". Users can run three sets of cues at once.
