The venues include a 1,000 seat theatre, a 350 seat cinema/lecture theatre, and a large multipurpose venue named the Great Hall. In total we are supplying over 84 power flying winches and bars,68 variable speed intelligent CH:i chainhoists, multiple stage and orchestra lifts, powered curtains, projection screens and other specialist equipment, all controlled by Nomad control desks.
Edinburgh International Conference Centre (EICC)
We are working with our sister company Delstar Engineering on this project in Scotland's captial to supply a moving floor system, additional function space and office development. We are providing mechanical design, build and installation as well as a control system. The moving floor system comprises 29 lifts covering a floor area of 30m x 51m.The lifts have a series of risers built into the platforms to enable different formats of raked seating to be set up.Twelve of the central lifts also have a revolve facility to enable some seating platforms to be turned inwards, to form an arena mode for set-ups such as snooker tournaments or boxing.
Millton Court
This project is for London's Guildhall School of Music and Drama. We're working with Theatre Projects Consultants on this new build theatre and concert hall in the base of a 35-storey tower under construction at the Barbican. The theatre includes 53 axes of overhead flying plus an orchestra lift, while the concert hall is 26 axes of overhead flying with 20 stage lifts.
