ComPany ProfiLe<br />
aDB, originally founded in Belgium in 1920 by adrien De Backer, operated as a family business until 1987 when<br />
it was acquired by the SiemenS group.<br />
at that time aDB had already pioneered some of the key technologies used in stage & studio lighting, such as<br />
digital dimmers, memory control systems, high per<strong>for</strong>mance optics... <strong>and</strong> was strongly established as a leading<br />
broadline manufacturer with facilities in Belgium <strong>and</strong> france, <strong>and</strong> a sales subsidiary in germany.<br />
in December 2002, as the result of a management buy-out, Christian Léonard, today’s Ceo, backed up by a<br />
group of private <strong>and</strong> institutional investors, took over control of the whole aDB-ttV group <strong>and</strong> very rapidly<br />
restructured <strong>and</strong> streamlined the operations. today production <strong>and</strong> logistics are centralized in the french facility<br />
in Saint-Quentin, whereas r&D, Product engineering, marketing <strong>and</strong> international Sales are still located in the<br />
Belgian premises as be<strong>for</strong>e. following these changes, the new aDB <strong>Lighting</strong> technologies group is now a lean<br />
<strong>and</strong> agile operation able <strong>and</strong> eager to face new challenges.<br />
aDB’s core competence is in high per<strong>for</strong>mance, high quality products <strong>and</strong> services <strong>for</strong> professional applications<br />
in stage <strong>and</strong> tV studio lighting.<br />
from system design through equipment specifications, installation <strong>and</strong> commissioning, aDB provides<br />
customized solutions <strong>for</strong> any kind of stage or studio lighting system, also <strong>for</strong> fully equipped energy vans <strong>for</strong><br />
location lighting.<br />
aDB operates through 3 subsidiaries in france, Belgium <strong>and</strong> hong Kong, <strong>and</strong> a network of over 50 professionnal<br />
distributors worldwide.<br />

<strong>Lighting</strong> Technologies
EURODIM Twin Tech<br />
eUroDim twin tech is a high density dimmer cabinet designed<br />
specifically <strong>for</strong> professional lighting installations in theatres,<br />
concert halls, TV studios. It brings the best of two worlds, i.e.<br />
transistor technology <strong>for</strong> state-of-the-art sine wave dimming,<br />
<strong>and</strong> cost effective thyristor technology with its proven track<br />
record.<br />
The universal cabinet can host up to 128 channels of 3 kW<br />
(thyristors) or 2.5 kW (sine wave) installed in 32 plug-in modules,<br />
with 2 more slots <strong>for</strong> central electronics <strong>and</strong> optional back-up.<br />
An innovative concept allows <strong>for</strong> plug-in modules of any type or<br />
rating to be freely mixed <strong>and</strong> moved in any configuration within the<br />
universal cabinet. This is made possible by the instant, automatic<br />
module identification by the central electronics <strong>and</strong> represents the<br />
ultimate in terms of flexibility. So no reprogramming is necessary<br />
whenever the cabinet configuration is modified.<br />
DimSwitch Modules<br />
<strong>Lighting</strong> Technologies<br />
Dimming<br />
Based on solid state relay technology, DimSwitch is a unique dual capability thyristor module of 4 x 3 kW<br />
or 3 x 5 kW or 1 x 10 kW which can be programmed as either a switch <strong>for</strong> non-dimmable loads, or a normal<br />
dimmer with no minimum load required.<br />
EURORACK 60<br />

rigging<br />
as rigging equipment accounts <strong>for</strong> a major part of the lighting system cost in a tV studio, aDB has<br />
developed a new generation of high per<strong>for</strong>mance, cost effective products, <strong>and</strong> is able to propose<br />
customized solutions which will meet any specific requirement.<br />
Motorized Hoists<br />
A choice of 4 models <strong>for</strong> 120 kg nominal load,<br />
with pile-up or drum winding, with either No-<br />
Load/Overload safety mechanism or i.S.S<br />
Intelligent Safety System, + 1 heavy duty model<br />
with drum winding <strong>for</strong> 160 kg nominal load <strong>and</strong><br />
under-grid or over-grid installation.<br />
i.S.S, <strong>ADB</strong>’s proprietary Intelligent Safety System, represents a unique, state-of-the-art approach to suspension<br />
safety. I.S.S. first measures the initial load (the reference) automatically be<strong>for</strong>e starting up, then monitors in<br />
real time any variation from the reference, <strong>and</strong> eventually stops the hoist if the variation exceeds a certain<br />
value as determined by the sensitivity level selected by the operator.<br />
Track & Barrel System<br />
For low ceiling studios where the use changes frequently, <strong>ADB</strong><br />
has engineered a simple <strong>and</strong> yet very effective Track & Barrel<br />
system, where lighting bars are mounted on prewired trolleys<br />
which travel across the studio along a structure of parallel<br />
industrial tracks.
eferenCeS<br />
a wealth of experience in stage <strong>and</strong> studio lighting, a comprehensive range of high quality products<br />
<strong>and</strong> a strong project management capability are some of the key strengths which have made of aDB<br />
the preferred partner of so many theatre <strong>and</strong> <strong>television</strong> <strong>Lighting</strong> Professionals around the world. an<br />
impressive reference list is available upon request.<br />
