Claypaky introduces new fixtures

Claypaky introduces four new products - the Skylos, a weather-resistant searchlight; the Arolla Aqua, an IP66-rated fixture with a 40,000-lumen output; the Sharpy-X-Spot, a simplified Sharpy-X-Frame model; and the Buddylight, a new remote followspot system.

The Skylos is a flexible, weather-resistant fixture designed to be more than just a classic searchlight. It fits a custom 300 W white light laser source, which provides a parallel, uniform beam, with no visible hotspots. The beam pours out from a 300 mm front lens, specifically designed in Claypaky’s R&D department. The beam angle can be adjusted from 0.5° to 5°. The unit can be moved with relative ease in any environment; it can also be rigged on trusses for use on tours. Its body is IP66 protection rated and marine grade, which means it is capable of working in any weather conditions and in environments with high marine salinity and a high risk of corrosion. An internal heating system designed specifically for this product allows the Skylos to work at very low temperatures (as low as -40°).

The compact, IP66-rated Arolla Aqua is Claypaky’s top-of-the-range weather-resistant light. It fits a white 900 W (7000 K) LED light source, capable of a 40,000-lumen output. Other key features are the uniform light beam and the total absence of spurious lights. The zoom can be adjusted over a linear 5.5°-50° range (9:1). Due to Claypaky’s Go-Bright technology, there is no light loss or colour shift when gobos are inserted into the beam.

The Sharpy-X-Spot is a simplified Sharpy-X-Frame model, with the same lighting, optical and construction features of the original version. It fits a 550-Watt arc lamp, which produces deep, vivid, uniform colours, including a deep red. If needed, the “beam shaper” module - provided as an accessory - can be added, thus turning the Sharpy-X-Spot into a fully-fledged Sharpy-X-Frame. The module is automatically recognized by the product firmware.

The Buddylight is Claypaky’s new remote followspot system. It follows performers and speakers automatically and can be used either in an Art-Net or DMX network - by setting up control priority management with the console - or in standalone mode. The Buddylight is designed for use in theatres, auditoriums and conference rooms, and to mark a further step towards ever greater entertainment light automation.
