ROBE ROBIN FORTE FS & RoboSpot Base Station Package

This listing is for a ROBE ROBIN FORTE FS & RoboSpot Base Station Package. They show signs of wear but are in good working condition.

Designed for high-output spot, wash, beam, and followspot applications, the FORTE FS pairs Robe’s TRANSFERABLE ENGINE platform with a purpose-built RoboSpot workflow. The TE 1.000W HP White 6.700 K LED Engine is specified to produce a piercing 50,000 lm, delivering the intensity needed for long throws and strong aerial looks while maintaining the flexibility required in professional rigging and touring environments.

Light Output and Optical Performance

Performance has not been compromised, with the TE 1.000W HP White 6.700 K LED Engine producing a piercing 50.000 lm and the TE 1.000W HCF White 6.000 K LED Engine 35.000 lm with its exceptionally high inherent CRI of 96. The L70/B50 ratings of 50.000 hours, means longevity is assured.

Harnessing the strength of the self-referencing, data capturing TRANSFERABLE ENGINES, FORTE has wide ranging 5 - 55 degree zoom capability to fulfil all your spot, wash and beam applications, contained within its class-leading 41 kg frame. Usual output loss at the narrow zoom setting is taken care of via our ingenious Robe Patent pending narrow zoom output boost, improving performance by over 15 %, giving you a dramatically increased output, perfect for sabre like beams.

For buyers comparing fixtures by measurable photometrics, the HP engine is rated at 82.000 lm (engine output) and 50,000 lm total fixture output (integrating sphere), with 40,000 lm listed via goniophotometer measurement. The proprietary 13-lens zoom optical system (11:1) covers 5° to 55°, and the 180 mm front lens supports clean projection across tight beam and wide wash looks.

Color Control for Stage and Broadcast

Robe’s cutting-edge, CMY colour mixing system provides beautifully smooth colour transitions. Combined with two colour wheels, CRI 80 and 90 filters (HP Engine), and a variable CTO from 3.000 - 6.700 K gives FORTE total colour finesse.

For broadcast and camera-critical environments, the fixture includes Cpulse™ PWM control and direct ChromaTint Plus/Minus Green control for tighter matching to other sources and on-camera whites.

Gobos, Prisms, and Beam Shaping

The comprehensive, dynamic effects package includes; two fully indexable, rotatable gobo wheels each with 6 gobos using the fast change Robe slot and lock system; two stackable 6-facet prisms, one linear, one round; animation wheel and an ultra-fast motorized iris. The two rapid insert interchangeable frosts, a soft 1° and a medium 5° for silky smooth washes cover the entire zoom range of 5-55 degrees with no restricted range cut off.

FORTE gives you total control via our ultra-precise patented framing shutter system, with separate blade control and the entire assembly capable of +- 60° rotation; L3 (Low Light Linearity) dimming producing imperceptible fades to black. EMS (Electronic Motion Stabiliser) technology supports instant stops and hysteresis elimination, making FORTE® well suited for precise followspot work.

RoboSpot and Control Network Integration

The FORTE FollowSpot is equipped with the digital camera on the head and can be connected with the RoboSpot BaseStation for off-stage follow spot operation.

Integration is supported across common lighting control and network environments, including USITT DMX 512, RDM, ArtNet, MA Net, MA Net 2, and sACN. REAP (Robe Ethernet Access Portal) is included for direct communication over Ethernet networks, and DMX Wireless control is available on request.

Physical Specifications

Built for professional deployment, the fixture is rated IP20 and measures 843 mm (33.2 in) tall (head vertical), 483.5 mm (19 in) wide, and 335 mm (13.1 in) deep (head vertical), with a listed weight of 42.2 kg (93.1 lb).
