The CCTV Spring Festival Gala was born in 1983 and has been showcasing various forms of human life in an ornamental and artistic way for decades, documenting the bitterness, spiciness, sourness, and sweetness of life, and spreading the attention and expectations of the people.
From the 1980s when it stood out and dominated, to the 1990s when it grew and grew through exploration, and to the new century when it matured and faced enormous challenges, CCTV Spring Festival Gala has always strived to seek innovation and change beyond its relatively stable form.
As the scale of stage art continues to expand, the overall visual experience gradually expands to the entire venue, and giant lift screens are widely used... While the Spring Festival Gala stage art is innovating year by year, it also brings greater challenges to the on-site lighting equipment hanging system.
This article will lead you into the stage of the Spring Festival Gala and understand how Huaige Group, which shoulders the "heavy" responsibility, undertakes the intelligent lifting task of on-site lighting equipment carrying light racks, and the blank of CNC hanging systems.
Spring Festival Gala in the Year of the Rat
On site lighting control enters a new era
The application of a large number of mechanical screens in the 2020 Rat Year Spring Festival Gala has posed challenges for the on-site lighting team.
Because the lifting process of the mechanical screen can cause flickering of stage lighting, and the hanging equipment of the original stage lighting system is functional, which can only fix the lighting frame in one position and cannot be easily moved, unable to meet the lighting team's ever-changing stage design. In order to solve this problem, the Spring Festival Gala lighting team began searching for a research and development integrator for suspension systems.
At that time, the lighting team contacted Hebei Huaige Lifting Machinery Group, which is well-known in the field of stage suspension systems in China. Through technical exchange and communication, the Huaige team learned about the on-site issues and needs, and customized a set of CNC suspension systems specifically:
By programming and controlling the electric hoist, the truss assembly can perform various height and angle movements such as lifting and deflection. At the same time, the human-machine interface provides real-time feedback on the various motion states of the truss.
Therefore, the light frame can stop and run again at any point within the operating range, and follow the changes according to different programs and mechanical effects. The design effect of the lighting team can be fully presented, achieving real-time and dynamic program performance and recording effects.
With this CNC suspension system, the lighting team's challenges are easily solved. The combined use of Huaige CNC programming gourd also marks a new era of on-site lighting control for the Spring Festival Gala.
Spring Festival Gala of the Year of the Ox
Upgrade the difficulty level and be foolproof
This year's Spring Festival Gala adopts a circular screen design to expand the overall visual experience to the entire venue, integrating the stage and audience.
The main screen of the stage background is 61.4 meters × The 12.4-meter 8K ultra high definition giant screen, in addition to the main stage screen, ground screen, and ice screen, is also equipped with 154 ultra high definition screens behind the audience, each with independent channels that can be synchronously connected to 154 channels for presentation, forming a dome broadcasting space with the overall stage
In the overall layout of the dome, all areas except for the high-definition screen use new projection technology, which is combined with the screen content in real-time to form a leak free broadcasting space.
In order to ensure the aesthetic presentation of this leak free broadcasting space, the lighting equipment ensures flexible and variable movement trajectory. This year, Huai Ge took on the task of CNC hanging lighting equipment for the second time. The difficulty has escalated, but in front of the on-site audience and hundreds of millions of netizens, it is foolproof.
Huai Ge is in the middle of the stage at the Spring Festival Gala, hanging 66 Huai Ge SU-GP+programmed CNC electric hoists. These electric hoists have a running speed of over 19 meters per minute and are stable and silent. In conjunction with the large screen of lighting and sound, CNC programming control technology is used to display each scene of each program.
This is a reliable and networked CNC hoist suspension system, which includes electric hoist suspension points and control equipment, power cabinets, and supporting flexible electric hoist chain cable managers. "The Huaige team introduced that" real-time system operation monitoring function and abnormal error handling function are also integrated to ensure the equipment at the Spring Festival Gala site
The system structure is simple, and the overall layout makes the Mechanical floor simple and tidy, which meets the visual requirements of the Spring Festival Gala scene. Moreover, the maintenance during use is simple and time-saving.
At the same time, thanks to its system flexibility, the truss can be arbitrarily combined to form various irregular hanging frames, which tilt at different angles to meet the requirements of the Spring Festival Gala stage. The expandable suspension controller has flexible and variable control capacity, bringing great convenience to users.
With ultra-high precision and easy switching, Huai Ge once again contributed to the performance of the Spring Festival Gala stage.
Outlook
The Age of Comprehensive Intelligence
The CCTV Spring Festival Gala has been accompanying Chinese people for nearly 40 years and is a special national event. Gather various performance teams in China to showcase the hard work and dedication of people from all over the year, report on the progress and development of the country throughout the year, and carry the youth of generations after generations.
Participated in the recording of the Spring Festival Gala for two consecutive years, Huai Ge people have a deep feeling. We are proud to join such a grand event, and at the same time, this affirmation has become the driving force for us to continue to forge ahead, "said the Huai Ge team.
Huaige Group has been deeply cultivating the global lifting machinery market in recent years, and is striving to promote domestic stage lifting into a flexible and comprehensive intelligent era with a continuous exploration mentality.
Looking forward to this enterprise with national aspirations bringing more surprises to the industry.
