In co-operation with the Russian Company, MOSSIB, Visual act will deliver 10 advanced stage wagons for use in the Kremlin Palace Theatre in October 2008 as part of the reconstruction and renovation of the Great Audience Hall.
Each wagon incorporates two of our standard drive units, two battery packs, a control cabinet, an amplifier cabinet and the navigation laser. The mid section of the wagon that houses the drive units can be raised and lowered manually which offers more stability when the scenery arrives at the parking position, also when the drive units are off the floor the wagon can easily be rolled manually into storage.
The navigation laser is positioned in the center of the wagon under the sturdy floor base, thanks to a clever wagon design the laser can still ‘see’ where it is going through slits in the upper mid section of the frame. The public will never see how the wagon magically transports itself around the stage.
There are also load bearing sections on the floor of the frame which have a known footprint and are intended to mate with scenery within the theatre thus providing maximum stability and support from our wagons.
Each wagon will be able to easily transport 1500kg of scenery at a speed of 1 Metre per second with an accuracy of +/- 5mm. Stage Control System.
The Visual act installation team are looking forward to a successful installation at the prestigious Kremlin Palace this month.
