Studio Ceiling Rail System 3x3m - 4 pantograph
An innovative studio device which combines the benefits of both motorized pantograph's and hoist into one versatile unit. The key feature is the very compact length in the fully raised position, which is especially important in studios where height is restricted. It is mounted to the ceiling so that the unit is very stable and loads do not have to be balanced. The entire lighting and cable systems can be suspended from this studio rail system clearing the floor from light stands and cables, giving you more free space to move.
Key Features:
- pantograph extensible from 40 to 200 cm
- maximum system load: 60 kg
- each pantograph supports a load of up to 10kg using only the friction device
- rail carriages with brake system for unwanted movements of pantographs or tracks
- rails length: 3m
- 4 rails (2 fixed, 2 movable)
- rubber wheels with metal ball bearings ensure safe operation with loads of up to 15 kg
- silent and smooth movements due to rubberized wheels and bearings
- metal made parts (aluminum & steel)
- all components are black painted to eliminate unwanted reflections
- recommended for small & medium size studios. For large studios multiple fixed tracks can be joined covering a larger area. Movable tracks cannot be joined
- the lights can be moved in 3D axis (front/back ; left/right / up/down)

Several questions:
1) Can you please provide the package contents list in English (my Romanian is a bit rusty)?
2) Please explain how the brakes on the rail carriages are activated/released?
3) There appears to be a safety cable on each pantograph, is that correct?
Thanks!
Hi Dan,
Thank you for your interest in our products.
1. We have corrected the description of the package content to be in English.
2. The brakes are made of a spring load mechanism which put friction pressure with a rubber pad over the rail surface. To release the brakes, simply pull down the metal spring to release the pressure. A rope can be hanged by the metal spring to make process more convenient from the ground floor or a telescopic pole can be use (not included in the package)
3. Yes, there is a safety wire on each pantograph. Additional safety wires can be added if needed

This studio pantograph ceiling light rails system, do you have the one capable of holding uo to 80kg payload?
Hi Mzerah,
You can increase the total payload of the rail system by adding some extra "Ceiling Fixing Plates" and extra pantographs to split the load (each pantograph has a max payload of approx. 10 kg.

Hi, I’m looking to pair up the pantographs to carry iMac in timber box, to hover over desk and be pushed up out of way, iMac is 10kg, box may be to 12-15kg, do you think this will function ok and be man enough or too unstable at 2m extension? Glad of suggestions.
Hi, the max rated payload of the pantograph is 15 kg even if it's fully extended so it should be no problem if the max payload is not exceeded.

Exactly what I needed for my studio setup!
Very good investment for me. The whole system feels quality made. I like it very much especially that it helped me to clear the floor area of light stands. Much easier to work inside my relative small studio. Added two extra pantographs, one using to hang a studio monitor for fast control and one for hanging a mic above the talent. This solution is just what my studio needed!
