Tension Link Dynamometer Application Note: Entertainment/Stage Rigging
March 22, 2016
The live event industry continues to grow rapidly, and as shows continue to up the ante, entertainment rigging has become more complicated with the loads becoming larger, and the margin of error becoming smaller. Having the right tools can aid even the most experienced riggers in the ever-expanding challenges faced by constructing live event settings which are produced in any number of venues.
“Entertainment rigging has become more complicated with the loads becoming larger, and the margin of error becoming smaller.”
TL Series Tension Link Dynamometers from Intercomp are one such tool. These compact dynamometers can be used to raise and position all types of trusses, scaffolding, lighting, and audio equipment, all while monitoring the live forces on multiple lift lines and anchor points. Providing accurate load and tension readings eliminates guesswork and ensures safer, more confident rigging practices. Available in capacities from 500lb (250kg) to 500,000lb (250,000kg), Intercomp Tension Link Dynamometers feature wireless communication, allowing for multiple links to communicate to a single handheld indicator or a PC via IntercompWeigh™ software. This enables operators to monitor data from each individual link to address overload situations before they occur.
