143-CC Switcher-I®

Supplementing the line of two-way switching devices, ADC has developed a criss-cross concept in track switching which involves a turntable on which four different switching directions can be affected. As illustrated on the drawings below, the cyclorama track sections are easily moved by simply engaging the center channel of this four-way criss-cross switching device through upward pressure by use of a positioning pole (No. PP-2). Turning the pole causes the turntable to move in the appropriate direction and into the desired position. Model 143-CC SWITCHER-I® can be used only with Models 142 and 142-R RIG-I-FLEX® systems. Carriers must be 6" on center to maneuver through the switch.
