Over-stage
Front-of-house
Height-restricted spaces
Retrofitted spaces
Architecturally sensitive spaces
SAFER
Personnel stay on the ground while scenery, lighting gear, curtains and screens are raised and lowered via smart controls which meet or exceed industry standards.
GREATER FLEXIBILITY
ETC Rigging™ -- with the smartest controls and automated hoists available, facilitates quick, affordable and safe solutions to varied, innovative productions, offering the kind of flexibility typically associated with an extensive and expensive architecture of catwalks.
Prodigy Hoists are able to transform sensitive, existing environments - whether a house of worship or a performance space in a re-purposed building - discreetly adding modern rigging capabilities, flexibility, convenience and safety otherwise unachievable.
SAVINGS FOR NEW CONSTRUCTION or RENOVATION
In addition to enhanced safety and lower operation costs, ETC Rigging offers significant upfront costs savings for both new construction and renovation projects.
Prodigy Hoists:
If you thought that the safety, convenience and flexibility of an automated hoist system was out of reach because of the size of your budget or your venue, think again. The Prodigy® family hoist systems bring you the performance, at a price that defies its high lifting capacities.
Features
Core features from the Prodigy® family hoist systems, such as eight 3/16” lift lines, 50 feet of travel, load cell, slack line detection, positioning encoder, and the option to use our revolutionary compression tube technology or traditional rigging styles.
Prodigy Powerhead
Lighter than other automated systems and 1/3 of the length. The Powerhead ships compactly with pre-assembled slide-out loft blocks and pre-strung cables for easy, time-saving installation.
Every hoist tested under full load before leaving the factory
ETC wants the user-experience to be the best possible - from the moment the system is turned on. Every Prodigy hoist is tested under full load before it leaves the factory. All electrical and electronic connections, lift-line integrity and terminations, limit-switch functions, operation switches, and other components are tested by ETC factory technicians. Each hoist receives final inspection by quality managers before the equipment is packaged and shipped. These tests and inspections assure the installer and the owner that they are in possession of equipment that is not only safe and reliable but which will do the job from the first moment of use.
Prodigy Progressive Hybrid Sloped Drum
Drum design dramatically reduces the space needed for a motorized winch. Small drum size also means a streamlined Powerhead for the most compact and manageable rigging system on the market.
