5. In-depth Analysis of Project Overview
5.1 Venue Environment & Engineering Challenges
Nanjing Mengzhilan Youth Olympic Sports Park Gymnasium is a standard large sports venue with a grid-style steel structure ceiling featuring excellent load-bearing capacity yet unevenly distributed hanging points. Additionally, the stage is fitted with an artificial rainfall system and wire mesh flooring, calling for enhanced protection for cables underneath and splash resistance for overhead suspended equipment.
The biggest challenge lies in the opening sequence: the artist is hoisted 15 meters above the ground and lowered slowly to the center of the stage in total darkness. This process demands exceptional vertical stability with zero sway, smooth soft start and soft stop control, as well as comprehensive safety redundancy for the lifting hoist.
5.2 Equipment Selection Rationale: Why Choose the "LingSheng" Hoist?
The Fengyi 65kg 15m Lifting Hoist was ultimately selected after rigorous tender evaluation for the following core advantages:
-
Superior Load CapacityWith a rated load of 65kg, it can suspend large custom special-shaped LED screens (approx. 2.5m × 2m), heavy-duty light rigs assembled with 15 high-power beam lights, and safely support a single performer for aerial wire stunts, fully meeting the requirements for the opening "descending from above" scene.
-
Extended Travel & Concealment PerformanceThe 15-meter vertical travel allows the equipment to be completely hidden in the dark upper section of the stadium ceiling before the show, creating a stunning surprise effect as the setup seemingly appears out of nowhere.
-
Millimeter-level Positioning AccuracyCombined with a closed-loop servo motor and high-precision encoder, the hoist can stop accurately at any position along the full travel range with an error margin within 1mm, which is critical for precise alignment between the performer and stage props upon landing.
-
Dual Safety RedundancyThe combination of dual steel wire ropes (main load-bearing rope + backup safety rope) and a mechanical fall arrester enables instant locking even in extreme cases such as main rope breakage or power failure, eliminating falling risks entirely.
5.3 Programming & Motion Curve Design for the "Descending from Above" Sequence
To build dramatic tension for the opening act, the lighting programming team customized elaborate motion curves for the "LingSheng" Hoist via the grandMA3 console:
- Initial Soft Start (0 → 0.2m/s): The acceleration is set to an ultra-low level to eliminate impact during startup. It provides sufficient buffer for suspended fixtures and the performer to avoid noticeable sway.
- Constant Speed Phase (0.5m/s): After the startup phase, the hoist descends at a steady constant speed. It gives the audience ample time to follow the movement and allows camera operators to capture smooth tracking shots, building an atmosphere of eager anticipation.
- Final Soft Stop (0.5 → 0m/s): As the performer approaches the wire mesh stage, the system executes linear deceleration based on feedback from encoders until a full stop. There is no jitter or vibration upon landing, delivering an ultra-smooth effect like a feather touching the ground.
5.4 Safety & Monitoring Linkage
Throughout the nearly three-hour performance, the "LingSheng" Hoist is fully integrated into the grandMA3 central control system:
- Technicians monitor key operational data in real time via the Art-Net protocol, including load current, steel wire rope tension and motor temperature.
- The system adopts dual main power supplies plus an online UPS (battery life ≥ 30 minutes). In case of unexpected power loss, the hoist can rise to the top position automatically and lock securely.
- Supported by time code synchronization, the hoist moves in millisecond-level alignment with music choruses. Its motion matches the artist’s precise choreography perfectly, achieving seamless integration between performer and mechanical movements.
Targeting the CNC Mechanical Aesthetics visual positioning and stringent requirements of this large-scale stadium concert, the Fengyi team delivered a complete set of solutions as follows:
6.1 Adaptation for Extended Travel & Extreme Ceiling Height
Leveraging the 15-meter long travel capability, heavy-load hanging points are precisely installed on the main load-bearing steel trusses 15 meters above the stage.
Verified by structural engineers, the designed load of each hanging point is 8 times the static load of the equipment, with a safety factor far exceeding industry standards.
The large special-shaped LED screen can be fully concealed in the dark ceiling area. When activated, it descends vertically for over 10 meters, creating a strong visual contrast and heightening audience anticipation.
6.2 Redundant Safety & Anti-sway Design
A dual-rope redundancy system is adopted, with the main steel wire rope bearing the load and the secondary rope serving as backup. Either rope can independently withstand the full rated load.
Custom flexible steel wire rope guide wheels, together with built-in high-precision encoders and mechanical limit switches, keep suspended loads vertically stable with barely visible sway, even under complex on-site airflow and vibration conditions across the 15-meter travel range.
The mechanical centrifugal fall arrester operates independently of the electrical system. It triggers automatic locking upon overspeed, acting as the final physical safety barrier.
6.3 Digital Integration with Central Stage Control
The "LingSheng" Hoist is fully connected to the grandMA3 control network. Lighting operators can directly adjust lifting height, speed curves and acceleration/deceleration parameters on the console via the Art-Net protocol.
Multiple hoists can be grouped to realize multi-axis synchronized movements, such as two hoists lifting a large backdrop simultaneously, becoming an integral part of the overall CNC mechanical choreography.
6.4 Rapid Deployment & On-site Technical Support
To meet the tight schedule for the opening show, professional Fengyi engineers provided on-site guidance for installation and commissioning, completing all mechanical assembly and electrical wiring one week in advance.
A full-load operation test (65kg load, full 15-meter travel) is conducted daily before the performance to simulate extreme working conditions and record operation curves.
Two dedicated Fengyi technicians stay on-site throughout the show to monitor system parameters in real time. A complete spare parts kit is also prepared to ensure trouble-free operation.
