WINCHES

KINETIC LIGHTS offers a family of products for a wide range of applications. The main application of our high precision winches is the synchronous spatial choreography of large light arrays. In addition, we offer specialized winch systems, e.g. for heavy loads or for the transmission of data and video signals.

 

All winches have power and signal lines integrated into the carbon fiber reinforced hoisting cables. Our systems make it easy to combine different winches and lighting into a unified design for seamless control of large installations and multiple connected objects.

PRECISION - SAFETY - QUALITY - DURABILITY

All our systems are designed and manufactured in Germany to the strictest standards. We always keep our four core principles in mind.

PRECISION

  • Reliable & repeatable positioning accuracy

  • High-resolution encoders for continuous position monitoring

  • Each winch is meticulously calibrated after production, ensuring consistent extension lengths during shows, particularly noticeable in ‘Tilt Plane’ and ‘Wave’ patterns

  • Superior light quality due to proprietary LED drivers and an individual dimmer calibration process

  • All winches in the system feature auto-setup with cable end position self-detection

Reliable & repeatable positioning accuracy. High-resolution encoders for continuous position monitoring
CE, UL and DGUV17 / BGV C1 compliant

SAFETY

  • CE, UL and DGUV17 / BGV C1 compliant

  • All mechanical parts and connections designed with a safety factor of 10

  • Self-locking gearbox acts as a brake when disengaged

  • Active electromagnetic brake with corresponding brake control on L and XL winches

  • High quality limit switches for upper and lower hardware limits (adjustable lower limit)

  • All cables, electrical components and housing materials are UL listed and have passed all relevant fire tests

QUALITY

  • High quality motors, gearboxes, encoders and slip rings for long life, high speed and low noise operation

  • All load cables reinforced with carbon fiber strands

  • All our products are manufactured and assembled in Germany and the Netherlands

  • Each unit undergoes a thorough and documented test routine followed by a 5 day burn-in

High quality motors, gearboxes, encoders and slip rings for long life, high speed and low noise operation.
