1) SZM 20-60

MTS’s manual pantographs are designed for the accurate vertical positioning of lighting, audio, and video equipment in studio environments. Operated via pole control, these units provide smooth and secure adjustment without the need for motorization.

The SZM 20–60 model refers to a cable-based manual pantograph with an extension range from 2  to 6 meters, supporting loads of up to 30 kg.

Every pantograph is built to the highest standards of safety and reliability, and custom adaptations are available on request to suit specific technical or spatial requirements.

  • Payload: 30 kg
  • two 2.8 mm steel ropes ensure safe support
  • self-locking, maintenance-free drive system is technically oversized for long-term reliability
  • Upper attachment: DIN TV spigot, d = 28 mm
  • Load atachment: DIN TV socket, d = 29 mm
  • fully compliant with the strictest safety regulations – designed according German safety standards
  • Safety standards: EN17206, DGUV Vorschrift 17 (former BGV C1/ VBG 70) and DIN 56950-2 (former DIN 15560)
  • integrated power cable with Schuko (or CEE)
  • other cable feed lines on request
    • Ethernet
    • DMX
    • Audio
    • ect
  • toolless maintainance; all maintainance points can be directly viewed
  • proven design 

2) SZE 40-60

TS motorized pantographs offer high-precision vertical positioning for lighting, audio, and video equipment—delivering exceptional control, safety, and flexibility in demanding studio environments. Each luminaire can be individually adjusted, allowing for dynamic and creative lighting design. For enhanced versatility, optional motorized horizontal adjustment is also available.

Built from high-strength aluminum rectangular profiles, MTS pantographs ensure maximum structural integrity with minimal retracted height. The extension range reaches up to 6 meters, depending on model and configuration. For greater lifting heights, MTS telescopes, hoist systems, or polelights are recommended.

  • Payload: up to 60kg 
  • Slack rope / rope break detection per load carrying device
  • up to 6m drop
  • Carrying means: Steel cable (min. 2,8mm).
  • fully compliant with the strictest safety regulations – designed according German safety standards
  • Safety standards: EN17206, DGUV Vorschrift 17 (former BGV C1/ VBG 70) and DIN 56950-2 (former DIN 15560)
  • Statically and dynamically self-locking drive
  • Permanent lubrication
  • 3x 230/400V, 50Hz, 12 kg, 1,5kW, 300 Nm
  • Motor protection: protected against thermal overload and IP 54
  • Working temperatures from -30 ° C to + 150 ° C
  • Absolute position sensing with high-precision potentiometer on request
  • tool-less design. all maintainance points can be directly viewed

Choose from different control unit options: 

  • FCP PRO: fully automated studio control system
  • FCP 900: simple yet efective control unit on sight
  • Button control: for simple up/down movement of individual devices
  • Wireless control units

Choose from different outlet options: 

  • Power Supply (Schuko, CEE, Powercon, etc.)
  • DMX
  • Audio
  • Video
  • etc.

As we manufacture our lifting equipment order-related in our factory, we can react to customer-specific change requests at any time and implement them as required. Here are some of the variable key data of our Studio Hoists:

  • supply lines and sockets (e.g. Schuko, CEE, Powercon, XLR, etc)
  • various load bars (length and type)
  • variable stroke
  • individual overload settings
  • customer-specific carrying ropes
  • carriages for all common running rail systems
  • individual control concepts
  • and more

Siutable Control UNits:

Our motorized studio lighting suspensions are powered by a decentralized control logic, minimizing downtime and ensuring maximum operational readiness. Each suspension device is equipped with an independent motor control unit, which continuously monitors all safety-critical parameters, including:

  • Overload protection
  • Slack-rope detection
  • Cable breakage detection
  • Upper and lower working end positions
  • Upper and lower emergency stop positions

Our system offers scalable automation levels, ranging from simple up/down controls to standard control panels with group selection (FCP 900) and fully automated studio control units (FCP PRO).

 

The FCP PRO offers the most advanced rigging control for bigger studios.

The FCP 900 controls goups with up to 10 devices.

MTS HOISTS IN REAL-Life PROJECTS:

MTS pantograph systems are trusted by top studios and venues around the world, delivering safe, reliable, and efficient lighting suspension for a wide range of professional applications. From major broadcasters to cultural institutions, our pantographs play a key role in enabling flexible, high-performance lighting setups.

We’re proud to support some of the world’s most renowned production environments.
