n Charges the lift beam faster than A.C.

n Up to 100 lift cycles without recharging

n Smart charger and cables included

n Full recharge in about 3 hours

n Indicator lights show charging status

n Automatic cut-off and standby mode

The DOllY DRIVER is a portable A.C. power source that lets you recharge the lift beam numerous times when no A.C. outlet is available. The DOllY DRIVER has enough power to recharge the lift beam system up to 16 times on some Dollies.

The DOllY DRIVER kit comes with a NiMH Smart Charger and all the necessary cables to recharge the DOllY DRIVER in about 3 hours (or less, if not fully discharged).

NiMH Smart Charger IncludedCombining advanced electronic design and a microprocessor controlled “brain” together with the latest in power control technology, the result is a unique, compact, advanced battery charger capable of delivering an exceptionally high rate of charge with no fear of damage to the battery.

The NiMH Smart Charger is easy to use and virtually automatic in operation. Irrespective of the level of charge remaining in the battery, the NiMH Smart Charger will recharge the battery at a rapid rate; when the battery is fully charged, the charger will carry on at a reduced “Top-up” rate, this will ensure that the battery is 100% fully charged.

You can leave the battery connected to the charger without fear of damage. “Top-up” charge will ensure that the battery is ready for use at a moment’s notice.

Slider Available in various sizes

lighter, stronger materials and new technology in slider bearings have allowed the development of one of the most versatile new camera mounting devices to come along in many years, The Slider.

The “Slider” provides the means of mounting a camera on a track that offers camera operators more control and flexibility in camera positioning with less movement of the camera platform. The camera can be easily repositioned and can be rotated on a 360 degree axis by the camera operator.

The “Slider” is built for ease of setup and enables a camera operator to achieve tight camera shots without disrupting production for dolly movement, thus saving valuable production time.

The advanced technology bearings used on the “Slider” allow an operator to silently adjust camera position and angle without interrupting filming.The advanced technology bearings are smooth enough to allow the camera operator to control camera movement by simply moving his head while looking into the camera eyepiece.

The VacuRigg System

The Floatcam Dolly Crane

The VacuRigg System is ideal for mounting cameras, lights or other accessories on all smooth surfaces like glass, cars, walls. Anytime, anywhere. The systems payload can carry up to 100kg/220lbs.

It is supplied with tube fittings to enable the camera to be mounted on any flat surface. This unique system gives a rock solid platform by extracting air via tubes from the limpet mounts.

The Floatcam Dolly Crane is a revolutionary integrated slider, jib arm and mini jib. This unique piece of grip equipment allows a camera to be tracked up to 1.6m at almost any angle, including vertically. The innovative counterweighted system ensures that the camera moves silently and effortlessly through its range, enabling operators to achieve shots simply not possible with other sliders.

The Idea Behind The SKATER® The idea behind the SKATER Mini is fairly simple. It basically takes advantage of a friction tilt head on which tracking wheels are directly attached, optimized for an extremly low camera position.

Because the SKATER Mini is so small and lightweight it allows the operator to move the camera by themselves, giving them direct control over tracking shots in any direction as well as all sorts of curved moves. You can precisely define any centre of rotation at any diameter. It’s all your decision: whether you like to orbit around an object in front of the lens or make a curved move into a final product shot.

Shots which normally require sophisticated rigging or even motion control can now be executed with almost no prep time.

A SKATER® Mini is not limited to only one camera height. Rig your SKATER® Mini to whatever height you need with the SKATER® Mini levelling Supports.

Combine them with standard lighting equipment and simply place a tracking board on top to get your shot at whatever height you need.

GF16 Crane SystemThe GF-16 Crane supersedes the GF-14 and is the ultimate in ‘big’ modular, rideable and remote crane systems.

A major highlight of the GF-16 is the adjustable mounting column. It allows assembly of the arm at a low, comfortable pivot height of 158cm / 5’ 2”.

When assembled the complete arm can be elevated 40cm / 18” per hand crank, or motor driven with a battery operated screwdriver. This feature not only improves safety and handling as it reduces the need for using ladders etc during assembly and breakdown, it also gives the operator more options to adapt the crane to the location or set.

Transportation of the crane is more comfortable as the assembled base, column and pivot section is only 192cm / 6’ 3” high when retracted.

Maximum load 45-49kgs 99-108lbs

length operational 204-412 cms 6.7-13.6ft

The Egripment JanJib System offers a completely new method of building a Jib Arm. As a result of a unique modular system, the operator can now create a variety of 10 different jib arms lengths and configurations using a single centre trunnion section, one basic front section and one basic rear section.

The JanJib System is constructed from lightweight aluminum sections which clip together quickly and easily, yet the JanJib is very strong and rigid which offers camera operators top quality steady camera movement. The JanJib also includes the high quality bearing system which assures the smooth movement that camera operators have come to expect.

TOWercam is a remote controlled computer-assisted telescoping camera column which can be combined with any remote-head. The column runs very smoothly and almost silently and has a very short rigging time (less than one hour). The TOWercam plus remote-head can be operated by only one person as the operation of the column is accomplished with a footpedal. The system offers crane-like movement without a crane.TOWercam is a space-saving alternative to conventional camera cranes and allows the camera to be placed in areas where traditional cranes would never fit.

The 435 RAC (RemoteAquaCam) was engineered primarily for use with remote 3-axis heads on cranes for at sea or wet stage work. Field testing has also proven the 435 RAC to be as useful for handheld filming under the water or floating on the surface.

Designed around a standard Arriflex 435, custom Sl Cine 400’ magazines and Preston remote focus and iris controls, this low profile camera system can be easily fitted with Panavision, Zeiss, Hawke or Cooke spherical and anamorphic lenses. Some small lightweight zoom lenses can also be used.

The HydroHead from HydroFlex Inc. is a waterproof remote pan and tilt head. It is the perfect compliment to our 435 and 35-3 RemoteAquaCams. The HydroHead’s light weight and low profile combined with the tubular hydrodynamics of the RemoteAquaCams allow this system to glide through the water with less resistance than any other system currently available.

the Panagator will arrive at your location pre built with the 30ft super technocrane already fitted. simply drive the whole thing out of the truck it arrives in, and then to your location, whether it be up hills, through muddy fields, or just a shoot where the crane has to be repositioned many times.

the Panagator has a very quick setup time therefore will save production time and money.
