Problem

Lift, Lower, Move Equipment: Need anti-corrosive, weather resistant  systems that can quickly move and hoist heavy stage equipment in an outdoor venue.

Solution

We chose a range of reliable low-friction pulleys, winches, and linear motion systems made of the same materials used by the marine industry to prevent corrosion, a problem in open-air conditions. 

All systems feature Harken bearing technology, allowing heavy apparatus to be quickly moved or hoisted around a set.
