Dioptra Boom System
Tax included where applicable. Delivery, rigging and commissioning arranged by your concierge.
ELVARNIXO Rigging — gravity, negotiated
The Dioptra puts light where stands cannot stand: counterweights calibrated and labelled, reach and load tables printed on the arm, and safeties included because overhead is a promise, not a hope.
Overhead systems are engineered like the ceilings they hang from: rails rated with margin, carriages that glide under load, pantographs balanced so one hand moves what one hand should. We survey, install and certify — paperwork included, because studio insurance reads paperwork, not brochures.

- Legs level on cobbles, cables and church steps
- Motorised pantographs balanced for one-hand moves

Care
Sand stays in sandbags: brush leg joints after beach and site work. Do not exceed stamped loads, ever, even briefly. Rail systems get a yearly inspection by our riggers — included for the first two years.
Questions, Answered
What are the real load ratings?
Stamped on the equipment and stated in the listing, tested at double before a batch ships. If you need more, rig bigger — never closer to the limit.
Are spares available?
Knuckles, castors, pins and springs are stocked for fifteen years — grip should be repaired, not landfilled.
The ELVARNIXO Promise
One standard across the range: if it would not survive our own rental fleet, it does not ship with the ELVARNIXO mark.
