Pasquale Quadri was quick to realise that modern advances in lighting technology could be exploited to the maximum effect in the entertainment and show business world. Resolving to make the most of his knowledge of optics and his passion for electrical engineering, Pasquale founded Clay Paky on 28 August 1976, taking the first step in the search for creative and refined lighting effects that continues to this day.
In 1976 Clay Paky started its research and manufacturing operations in a factory
at Seriate (near Bergamo in the north of Italy).
The first major technical
and business successes of the firm date back to those early years, thanks to
a series of products mainly designed to bring spectacular new effects to dancehalls
and discotheques. As the firm developed, the original site proved too confined
for the flourishing manufacturing activities and changed organisational needs,
so remaining in the vicinity of Bergamo, in 1982 Clay Paky relocated to the
industrial site at Pedrengo from which, following various extensions and modifications
over the years, the firm continues to operate.

Stage Scan the brand new luminaire for lighting designers working in the concert, television and theatre sectors. This new fixture joins GOLDEN SCAN HPE and SUPER SCAN ZOOM to create an absolutely matchless trio, setting industry benchmarks in terms of performance and reliability in the professional lighting sector. With Stage Scan there's
no need to hang around for the bulb to cool before switching on again:
the built-in hot-restrike igniter means that the luminaire is always ready
for action. You won't even be left in the dark after momentary power failures,
so there's no need to keep your fingers crossed during thunderstorms!
And when the shutter is closed, you can either power down the luminaire
direct from the desk or select automatic power-down. |

Golden
Spot 1200 is a very powerful moving body effects projector with an HMI 1200W/S
lamp that offers cutting-edge performance whilst meeting any budget. In the 10+3 channels, the projector offers two separate gobo wheels: one for bi-directional rotating gobos with adjustable speed, all indexable over 540° with selectable 8 or 16 bit resolution, and the other for fixed gobos. These two gobo wheels can also be used in combination. The gobos can be interchanged and selected from a vast range of dichroic and photographic versions, in decorative glass or metal. |

The optical unit uses a wide-angle 24° lens with electronic focusing, which ensures a perfectly clear image at any distance and aperture. An additional lens, housed inside the projector, can be fitted by hand to reduce the light beam to 15°. The vast choice of colours that can be obtained with Golden Spot 1200 is based on a series of very pure dichroic and special effects filters, which are mounted on two wheels and may be combined. The special effects include two filters for correcting the colour temperature to 3200K (hot filter) and to 6000K (cold filter), a 5-sided prism and a frost filter. Other built-in effects are iris, dimmer and stop/strobe effect. This projector utilises broad and smooth movements (450° Pan, 252° Tilt) with selectable 8 or 16 bit resolution, a moving body lock for transport, automatic return to the starting position of the moving body after accidental movements and easy access to inside the projector. Golden Spot 1200 is a very versatile projector which excels in many environments including touring, TV, theatre and discotheques - as well as applications that benefit from its extraordinary efficiency and range of the moving body, while saving on investment and maintenance. |

Stage COLOR 1200 You can choose between
three diffusion intensities (including one with an exclusive 50° beam
angle), and special effects such as concentric twin-coloured beams and
ultraviolet light. These are just some of the great features you will
find in Stage Color 1200, the most powerful and imaginative washlight
for advanced applications currently on the market. Stage Color is revolutionary,
thanks its easy conversion into the Stage Zoom 1200 effects projector.

Other lighting effects ASTRORAGGI POWER is
the technological interpretation of a dance floor effect which, over the
years, has achieved the status of an all-time discotheque centre-stage
classic. ASTRORAGGI POWER
projects 102 concentrated pencil beams in constant motion, animating the
dance floor with a spectacular shower of light. The two main functions
are fully controllable: continuously variable movement speed and light
intensity, which can be gradually increased from dark to full power. |
