Riggin Design Inc - telescopic camera cranes
PowerScopic
The PowerScopic is a heavy-duty, steel-constructed telescopic camera crane designed for exterior production and large-scale studio applications. Its open truss arm architecture allows wind to pass through the structure, reducing wind load and improving controllability in outdoor environments.
​
The crane base is designed for rapid deployment and precise positioning. Integrated hydraulic leveling allows the system to be brought into operating position quickly, while a motorized base enables fine positioning without additional manpower. This configuration improves efficiency during setup and repositioning, particularly in exterior locations.
​
Telescopic movement is driven by a single master hydraulic actuator, providing smooth, quiet, and highly reliable extension and retraction. The hydraulic system is well suited to variable weather conditions and sound-sensitive environments.
​
Hydraulic accumulators are recharged between takes in a manner similar to camera dolly systems. Recharging can be accomplished using available set power or an onboard 8000-watt generator mounted to the transport vehicle. In locations without external power, a gasoline-powered engine integrated into the crane base is capable of recharging the hydraulic system independently.
