Spain - HOF is set to release the MLT Four, which will have a world premiere at ISE in Barcelona. The new MLT Four is the latest development of the MLT Pre Rig Truss series.

With its 80cm height, the MLT Four is designed as a pre rig truss for heavy loads and large spans. It is designed for holding and flexibly positioning motors without losing height. It is also suitable for LED walls.

This distinguishes the MLT Four from the MLT Three and Two pre rig trusses, which are the right choice when little headroom is available and the number of hanging points is not limited.

The MLT Four is for occasions when you need to create a typical pre-rig and bridge a large span, but only have a limited number of hanging points.

The main features of the stackable MLT Four are high load capacity and a heavy-duty rail system.

The MLT Four is av
