The BGR70 truss is in essence a low volume truss with extreme load bearing
capacity. The truss can handle large spans as well as extreme loads. A pre-camber
system, to guarantee zero deflection, is one of the great features this truss offers.
Unlimited Productions, has been instrumental in the development and first
deployment of the system. The BGR70 truss is available for the market as of now.
Confronted with an increasing demand from the field for high loading capacity truss,
Unlimited Productions approached two rigging specialists to see if it would be
possible to create an answer to this growing demand with an “out-of-the-box’
solution, that would combine the best features of already existing truss systems.
While the idea was conceptualized they needed to source two invaluable
components; thorough static calculations and expert welding and material knowhow.
With Ruud de Deugd linking supply and demand, Prolyte could work with Unlimited
Productions to thoroughly test this new truss design before releasing it to the
market, while Unlimited would have an “on demand’ truss system at their
availability.
Breda based Unlimited Productions, is a full service production company offering
technical-, creative concepts, high-end designs and quality event productions. With
a diverse client portfolio consisting of event organizations, promotors and
multinationals, the company is active on an international scale within the field of
live communication.
The BGR70 truss, incorporates the perfect combination of high loading capacity,
reduced transport weight and low volume. The BGR70 truss has a spatial lattice
structure and is made of high-quality aluminium in specially designed rectangular
profiles.
The BGR70 truss can be used for spans up to 45 meters with a permissible,
maximum centre point load of 750 kg. The BGR70 truss is coupled with a special
coupling system, made of high rate steel plates, creating a simple, “fool-proof’
connection that mounts without the need for tools.
The use of these plates also facilitates a pre-camber system, reducing final
deflection in the total span where need to zero.
This creates the ultimate solution for spans with heavy LED screens, moving
systems or performer fly systems, where deflection tolerances are close to zero.
Unlimited Productions has used the truss on several occasions so far, thoroughly
testing the design in practice before a worldwide release to the market was
announced. Their user feedback was integrated in the final design.
Prolyte will feature live load tests during the Prolight + Sound exhibition. You are
invited to see the BGR70 truss in action. The live test will be performed several
times per day during the show. The Prolyte team, as well as representatives of
Unlimited Productions will be at the stand to offer product and user information.
