More details from Claypaky (www.claypaky.it):
The two companies are part of the international Osram group and are pursuing a common design program for the development of stage lighting products featuring advanced technology and performance, while maintaining the peculiarities of each brand.
Pio Nahum, Claypaky CEO said: “Claypaky and ADB together offer one of the most complete packages in today’s entertainment technology industry, including static and moving-head lights with LED, halogen or discharge lamps, as well as lighting control equipment, and dimming and networking systems. It is a range of complete solutions for any type of project: television studios and theatres of all sizes, corporate events, congress halls, multi-purpose spaces, retail environments, places of worship, cruisers and theme parks. The products offered by the two brands are perfectly complementary, and cover the whole spectrum of needs of people who work in the lighting field. For this reason, we deemed it essential to take part with a joint booth at an exhibition devoted to system integration”.
CLAYPAKY NEW PRODUCTS
AXCOR PROFILE 900 is a LEDspot Profile featuring a white LED engine with high luminous efficiency, total power of 900 watts and luminous flux of 46,000 lm (24,000 lumen output). It is coupled with a system of dichroic filters to create the colors. Thanks to its considerable light output, the Claypaky Axcor Profile 900 goes straight in at the top of its category and features the best in modern technology in every parameter: the characteristics of the white and colored light it produces, its ability to form perfectly sharp projections, and the precision micro-mechanics of its exclusive beam shaping system.
K-EYE HCR is a LED wash light which provides total control over the quality of all forms of white and colored light. The new HCR technology used in the K-EYE is an exclusive electronic platform developed by Claypaky in conjunction with Osram. The heart of the K-EYE HCR wash light is a LED light source consisting of a module with six colors: besides the three “classic” basic RED, GREEN and BLUE colors, Claypaky has added AMBER, CYAN and LIME. This exclusive Claypaky device provides a very wide color range with excellent color spectrum coverage and an extraordinary CRI >97, up to 99
Static HCR versions, manually adjustable on 210° tilt, are also available. They are intended specifically for backdrop wash illumination, offering the same optical, electronic and lighting characteristics as the moving versions, including a motorized 7°-53° linear zoom.
The new AXCOR 300 family of moving LED fixtures brings Claypaky’s no-compromise quality and performance to the broad mid-market. Now, more designers than ever before can achieve their biggest ideas. With a physical size, power consumption and price-point that disguise their strength and creative potential, the Axcor 300 range enables a new world of expression in touring, events, TV, theatre and installed lighting markets.
HEPIKOS is an innovative Claypaky beam-wash light, which encloses all the most advanced optical, mechanical and electronic technology, in its highly compact body. The light is built around a bright 440W Osram lamp, and features a 5-40° zoom which provides a bright wash effect even at maximum beam angle. The color production system is based on a CMY color mixing consisting of three wheels entirely devoted to producing single colors. Thanks to its 185 mm diameter plano-convex front lens and its narrow 5° beam angle, it can produce a sharp, full-bodied beam, which may be used for striking aerial effects with saturated colors.
