Description
Freedom of Movement
The Trixy Remote System is a real jack of all trades. With up to three axes, cameras can be moved in every conceivable direction. Slip rings enable unlimited freedom of movement. Special motors and backlash-free gears work precisely, quietly and dynamically. Trixy is designed for the mounting of film and video cameras weighing up to 20 kg / 44 lbs.
The lens control designed for most common lens brands guarantees the connection of video and film lenses to the zoom, focus and iris controls.
3 AXES
For amazing movements
The Trixy Remote Head has up to three movement directions. The third axis can be retroactively added as an option.
The same claim thereby applies for each movement axis – slip rings: Precision, quiet running and absolute freedom of movement without “cable spaghetti” as a result of too many movements in one direction.
Slip Rings
New developed and extremely flat slip rings allow unrestricted freedom of movement in all axes. In addition to the digital control signals (CAN-Bus), the video signal and the power supply of the camera are also slipped through without loss.
LENS CONTROL
For all lenses
Suitable to all lenses
External lens motors developed by Panther are used for controlling the lenses. Calibration of the lens starts immediately after switching on. Due to an intelligent and extremely flexible layout of the lens motors, practically any configuration can be realized.
The motors can be adapted to any common lens type with exchangeable, tool-free gear wheels.
As an option, there is a digital Lens Control Box for using internal lens drives of HD lenses (Canon / Fujinon).
OPERATION
Made for everybody
Control System
Control takes place via rear crane operation with two handles. The handles are fastened with a specially formed operating rod onto, for example, the Pixy Plus Crane system.
The control console (CPU Box) and the monitor can be mounted within comfortable reach. Panther also offers a Table Top and Pan Bar Control. This enables operation separate from the crane. A further option is the limit and position storage.
MOTOR
The power behind
Stepper motors equipped with high-resolution shaft encoders enable precise control of speed and torgue. Digital motor controllers ensure synchronized running and high dynamism. The multistage gears are protected by a sliding clutch.
TRANSPORT
As versatile as the Remote Head itself
An extra developed case facilitates the transport and protects the Trixy from damage. All parts can easily be stored inside of the case.
