Description
Medium and large size systems
TUBE is a portable top-roller system for screens or textiles in sizes up to 1200 x 900 cm / 39’4″ x 29’6″ (w x h). The extraordinary properties of carbon fiber ensure a lightweight, durable, and rigid system with a fast standard roller speed of up to approx. 0.9 m/s (35″/sec). Perfect for touring performances, special events, and trade fairs. Also works well for permanent installations in theaters and exhibition venues.
System sizes from 1200 cm are available on request.
