Claypaky at LDI 2019

Claypaky will be at LDI this year in booth #1447. They will be present with a new sales and technical team based in the US: Dennis Knopf (senior business development manager), George Masek (senior product specialist), Ray Whitton (North American business development manager), Julie Smith (product support). The booth staff will include also the Claypaky CEO Marcus Graser, head of global marketing Alena Turiakova, Francesco Romagnoli, Marco Zucchinali, Giovanni Zucchinali, and, of course, the whole technical team.

Claypaky flagship product at LDI is the Xtylos, presented for the first time in America under the motto "It's Real." A ten-minute product presentation and a five-minute light show will be devoted to all our new products, which will be repeated every hour. Masek will take a special in-depth look at the Xtylos three times a day on every day. A special game dedicated to "Xtylos" will also be available at the booth!

Xtylos is an innovative, compact beam moving light making use of a tailor-made laser source (patent application filed). It features an RGB additive color mixing, where colored light beams are as bright as a white light beam! The Xtylos is the first moving head light with a laser light source, and this opens up new, surprising prospects for the development of the entire entertainment lighting world.

Sharpy Plus is the first true 100% hybrid unit, able to be a perfect beam light and a perfect spotlight and featuring a top-ranking-performance Osram Sirius HRI 330W X8 lamp.

***WORLD PREMIERE*** Designed in the spirit of the Sharpy Plus platform, the Sharpy Plus Aqua luminaire is an IP65-rated moving head fixture well-suited for outdoor events, touring, permanent installations, cruise ships, and much more.

***WORLD PREMIERE*** ReflectXion is a moving mirror offering 540-degree pan and unique, continuous tilt movement at adjustable speeds. The ReflectXion's mirror is the same on both sides giving you two highly reflective surfaces with which to direct light beams.

Axcor Wash 600 is a versatile light, which further enhances the Axcor LED moving head range and naturally complements the Axcor Profile 600. The Axcor Wash 600 fits a four-blade framing system, working with any lens type you choose. The fixture is available with PC (standard), Fresnel or Clear lenses. The three types are interchangeable and can be purchased separately.

HY B-EYE is the latest development in the B-EYE range, with the same successful features, which have been enhanced and further enriched: the HY B-EYE is more powerful, more efficient, more interactive with the media server (Kling-Net protocol included), more versatile, and quieter than ever.

Mini-B is the smallest LED beam light ever made by Claypaky for the professional market. Although it weighs just 7kg and measures only 34cm, Mini-B features the most modern optical and electronic technology. The light source is based on 40W Osram RGBW LEDs and its central LED may be controlled separately from the external ring of LEDs.

CloudIO is an IoT device (patent application filed) which provides technicians with complete diagnostics for Claypaky fixtures. When the lights run checks after use, the unit collects data on hours of lamp life of each fixture, the conditions of various components in the units and update firmware, simply by connecting to the cloud. The CloudIO is equipped with a retrofit system, which allows it to be fitted to most of Claypaky lights.

Knight of Illumination Awards USA: The second annual Knight of Illumination Awards USA ceremony and gala dinner will be held on Friday, November 22 in Las Vegas alongside the LDI show.

The Knight of Illumination Awards (KOI) are the ultimate showcase of entertainment lighting and video design. They were originally conceived by Claypaky - which, to this day, continues to support the awards as headline sponsors.
