Reliable parts for below-stage machinery

Power and data cables must be safely and reliably guided in very small installation spaces under the stage floor. To this end, we developed special energy supply systems using our e-spool with its zig-zag e-chain. They have been used successfully for years. Our chainflex cables also increase your system's dependability because they are made specifically for movement.

Zig-zag energy chains in a multi-purpose hall

e-chains and cables for an innovative multi-purpose hall
The HUNGEXPO multi-purpose hall in Budapest is a huge auditorium with rows of seats on 43 platforms that can move flexibly and transform the space into a ballroom if required. Those responsible brought our project team on board for the complex cable guidance and the many cables. They use our plastic energy chains and chainflex control, data, and bus cables.

Stage platforms

Guide all media and still save space
e-spools and zig-zag e-chains perform their tasks in the Cologne opera house stage pit, ensuring the supply of power, data and hydraulics for moving the stage podium. The systems are cost-effective, and their compact design means that they require little installation space.

Double-stroke platforms

Safe and reliable guidance in narrow installation space
At SBS Bühnentechnik, the e-spool has proven itself in stage podium systems. The cable drum, which has no slip ring, can guide cables of different diameters for different media and has a very flexible design.

In the House of Dancing Water

Stroke heights of many metres and high loads possible
Zig-zag energy chains ensure power supply in The House of Dancing Water in Macau. All media cables (energy, data, hydraulics, pneumatics) are guided safely and reliably in a single system.

Stage platform

Quiet and low vibration movement
SBS Bühnentechnik GmbH uses drylin W linear guides in the Konzerthaus Berlin stage platform lifting device. They are not only quiet and low-vibration, but also maintenance-free thanks to their dry operation.
