1 TECHNICAL INFORMATION
1.1 BASIC INFORMATION
The Scorpio cranes are a 4 telescopic sections cranes with a dynamic counterweight system to
compensate the balance weight during motion. They are capable to perform smooth movements in
high and slow speed with reduced noise of the telescopic arm movement.
It is possible to mount any kind of head up to 70kg including camera package in the underslung
position. There is also the possibility to mount the leveling head in the over slung position to get more
lens high with 35kg of maximum payload for the head and the camera package in this configuration.
The range of movement in the Tilt axis (55º up from the horizontal position and 43º down from the
horizontal position) allows the Scorpio cranes to get an amazing high lens in a small footprint which
makes it perfect for any situation.
The dollies are prepared for mounting gripping bars to push the crane along 1m dolly tracks or use
the pneumatic wheels from the base that pivot over the center tires making it easy to relocate the
crane around the set. On the Scorpio 38’ model the dolly can also be collapsed in order to introduce
the crane through narrow spaces or mount it in 62 cm tracks.
The column is made with telescopic motorized sections controlled from the hand command of the
crane. This allows to lift the column fast and smoothly without the need of any extra tool than the
crane itself.
The features incorporated in the electronic box such as Arc Compensation, the possibility to program
limits on the movement of the arm or the possibility to record movements and play them back as many
times as needed with high precision makes this crane the best option for repetitive moments scenarios
or to get those shots that require a hard level of coordination between different members of the crew.
The new external display allows to operate from both sides of the crane while being able to see all
the information data displayed on the screen (arm range, height of the optic, pan, and tilt degrees…).
The Scorpio cranes match perfectly with any Scorpio Head. This combination of head and crane
can work together allowing the user to perform new features such as back pan or the tracking feature:
the possibility to set one point in space and lock the head in that point while the arm moves around.
