ETC’s explores rigging and control system at Oasis PPD

UAE: ETC recently held a comprehensive two-day training on its hoists and control systems at the Oasis Enterprises offices in Dubai. Sales manager Enrico Nobile and project manager and systems estimator Paulina Slawinska from ETC’s rigging team presented a brief overview of hoists and control systems while familiarising all of the attendees with ETC’s product line-up. The presentation was intended primarily for introducing installers and dealers to ETC’s fixed speed rigging products.

Following the presentation by the rigging team, ETC’s field service engineer Chris Purnell delivered a more technical and comprehensive training which included software configuration as per a venue’s application, installation techniques and examples of commercial and theatrical applications. All the attendees were given a first look at some of the ETC products currently under development as well as hands-on demonstrations of the most recent additions. On the third day, the ETC team accompanied Oasis project manager Ziad Al Barghash to one of the company’s recently installed project sites in Dubai’s DEWA campus for Occupational and Academic Development. Here, Oasis had installed motorised Prodigy hoists and a QuickTouch control system. Oasis team received a hands-on demo of the system, where each of the auditorium’s rigging-system components was installed in strategic locations. 

‘We are thankful to ETC for providing us with periodic training and keeping our staff up-to-date with new techniques, which will help us to deliver our customer a highly personalised professional service, be it for hoists, rigging, lighting or control systems,’ commented Al Barghash. ‘As we learn through the course, ETC’s Prodigy hoists and QuickTouch Controls set new standards for safety, design and affordability. In addition to enhanced safety and lower operations costs, ETC rigging offers significant upfront cost savings for both new construction and renovation projects.’
