Principles of Stage Wagon Transfer
  
 
 
 

 

This range comprises two types of Rigid push-pull chain, combining modular elements ready to be assembled, thereby becoming a linear transfer system.Each system can push and pull a stage wagon over long distances of travel.Positioned at 90 degrees, these systems offer the possibility to cross over up down stage tracks with cross stage tracks.When one of the chains is retracted, it frees the guide, thereby allowing the system positioned at 90 degrees to be operated.With the chains passing under the wagons, the system allows the transfer of wagon A leaving wagon B in position.The sketch below shows a typical transfer layout.
 

Serapid Stage Wagon Transfer

Legend for a typical theatrical stage system :
A :
 Stage wagon A in side to side movement.
B :
 Stage wagon B in forward/backward movement.
C :
 Compensator in high position.
D :
 Chain guides.
E :
 Chain storage.
F :
 Drive housings and return housings.

 
 
Fast and silent, Serapid systems offers total scenery changing flexibility in an environment of complete safety.The stage wagon systems are available in two sizes, SCT40 and SCT60, corresponding to different load capacities.

We recommend you consult our engineers for individual project assessments.
The noise levels are taken at 1m (3.3 ft.) from the source.
