UK - James Thomas will show its comprehensive ranges of trussing, tower and ground support systems - including the new Mini Tower trussing system - and theatrical lanterns. The latter include the legendary aluminium PAR can, cyc lights, spot banks and light battens.

The Mini Tower system is a small ground support tower designed to lift loads of up to 1000 kg to a maximum height of 7.5 metres in a three or four tower configuration; 7.5 metres in a goal post (two tower) configuration. JTE is also showing examples of its large range of standard aluminium trussing, ground support and roofing structures. JTE trussing and aluminium products are in clubs and destination venues of all types, large scale festivals, theatres, concert tours, theme parks, visitor attractions and retail environments. The most popular aluminium products include GP (General purpose) trussing, SuperTruss, Super Lite, Moving Light Truss, Circular truss, towers, roof systems, catwalks, follow spot chairs and a whole selection of rigging accessories. JTE's 30.5cm x 30.5cm SuperTruss is designed to offer all the advantages of the 52cm SuperTruss in a 30.5cm x 30.5cm layout, increasing the load bearing capacity substantially over standard GP 30.5cm x 30.5cm truss.

The PAR can needs no introduction as one of the industry's most ubiquitous and well respected sources of illumination. James Thomas were the first and original manufacturers of the spun aluminum PAR can, and are proud to still be at the forefront of one of the most revolutionary developments of show business technical history! PAR cans are available in many different shapes, sizes and colours, and in both indoor and outdoor versions, from the standard black PAR 64 lantern to the silver A1604 PAR 16. Well built and cost-effective the Asymmetric Cyc lights feature a high quality electrostatic paint finish and robust yoke, complete with T-bar for positive lock-off with the body of the unit having an inbuilt 30 degree angle floor-mount facility. Optional floor mounting plates are also offered for adjustable angles. The units have adjustable lamp-holders behind a chrome plated safety mesh, and the gel frames are easily removable. JTE's Cyc lights are available as single, two, three, four (linear and 2-up-2-down format) and six cell units.

Spot banks, available in various configurations of PAR 36 lamps, are designed for easy use, featuring robust lightweight aluminium construction, semi-gloss black electrostatic paint finish and heavy duty yoke with positive lock-off. The lock-off is achieved using a T-bar to enable the unit to be set at any desired angle. In addition to these features, each lamp bank will pan independently. Units can be supplied with stand-off colour frames, two or four-way barn doors. Adapters are also made for all the major brands of colour changers. Spot Bank units can also be supplied wired or unwired, and custom sizes are available to order. TV spec units include a TV spud, bolt set, four-way barn doors and internal partition.

The Par 16 Batten is designed to use MR16 12V lamps. The unit has extremely good ventilation to aid bulb life and the colour frame has been kept as far away as possible to prolong gel life. Printed circuit boards, lamp-holders and lamp failure neons, ensure reliable operation with minimum maintenance. Supplied as standard with 1 pair of floor plates and colour frames.
