Description

Never be short of output again as the FORTE® Fresnel, with its classically soft beam, delivers powerful, intense washes of light without losing theatrical subtlety or control, providing the most velvety-smooth washes possible, fit to grace any stage.

Delivering powerful, intense washes of light without losing theatrical subtlety or control, the FORTE® Fresnel with its classically soft beam, provides the most velvety-smooth washes possible, fit to grace any stage.

Harnessing the immense strength of the engine through its 200mm front lens, the FORTE® Fresnel, with its wide-ranging 10:1 ratio 6°- 61-degree zoom, offers a viable alternative to traditional 2.5 KW and 4 KW HMI Fresnels, within its class-leading sub 40 Kg frame.

Ensuring high output big statement washes, the TE™ 1.000W XP (Xtra Performance) White 6.700 K LED Transferable Engine generates a blistering 90.200 lumens. With the FORTE® Fresnel outputting 40.500 lumens (integrating sphere) from the front of the fixture, you have unsurpassed power and exceptional beam quality.

Our revolutionary self-referencing, data-capturing engines, easily changed within five minutes, are all designed, developed and manufactured within our factory (Robe patented technology). The L70/B50 ratings of 50.000 hours and 4-Year, 20.000-hour warranty assure longevity.

Maintaining Robe’s reputation for exceptional colour mixing, the CMY system provides beautifully smooth colour transitions from the subtlest pastels to the brashest saturates. Combined with two colour wheels, CRI 80 and 90 filters, and a variable CTO from 3.000 – 6.700 K, you have total FORTE® Fresnel colour finesse.

The FORTE® Fresnel has unsurpassed levels of beam control, including medium and light frosts; RotaScrim™ graduated filter with position control, +/- 180° rotation and edge colour correction; and the rapid 4Door™ internal barndoor system for accurate individual leaf control and +/- 90° module rotation to ensure maximum flexibility.

FORTE® Fresnel comfortably operates within any noise-sensitive environment, as it features specialised noise-dampening engineering and an array of fan control options. AirLOC™ (Less Optical Cleaning) technology greatly reduces the level of airborne particles drawn over the optical elements, improving light quality and time between routine maintenance.

For film and television work, our Cpulse™ flicker-free software is ideally suited for the latest camera systems, removing any on-screen flicker. The ChromaTint™ dedicated plus and minus green control channel simplifies picture control.

For theatrical suitability, our advanced L3™ Low Light Linearity dimming, for ultra-smooth fade to black, in combination with lamp size-specific Tungsten Emulation, provide seamless integration with traditional lighting rigs.

EMS™ (Electronic Motion Stabiliser) technology for instant stop and hysteresis elimination removes unwanted fixture tremble usually associated with larger fixtures.

FORTE® Fresnel has a comprehensive protocol suite; USITT DMX 512, RDM, ArtNet, MA Net, MA Net 2, and sACN; REAP™ (Robe Ethernet Access Portal) for direct communication over Ethernet networks; Epass for maintained network connectivity; CRMX Wireless DMX control is available on request. These allow easy integration into any control network.
