Synchronized Operation of 70 × 65kg 15m Lingsheng Hoist Cluster: Mechanical Aesthetics and Advanced Technical Dispatching for Peacebird’s 30th Anniversary Celebration

2. Project Overview

On June 1, 2026, Peacebird, a leading Chinese fashion brand, hosted its landmark 30th Milestone Anniversary Gala at Ningbo Olympic Sports Center. The all-day event integrated founder’s keynote speech, Birdman Music Festival and the flagship POWER ON Fashion Runway Show, welcoming nearly 10,000 on-site attendees. To deliver a visually stunning production blending industrial texture and avant-garde fashion flair, the stage design team deployed 70 sets of self-developed 65kg/15m Lingsheng motorized hoists from Fengyi Stage, forming China’s largest single-site hoist cluster to date. This paper elaborates on how these heavy-duty lifting units enable precise positioning of suspended ice screen arrays, aerial runway modules and oversized art installations inside a 10,000-capacity sports arena, covering venue adaptation, equipment selection logic, digital grouped control, redundant safety architecture and scene-based application, delivering solid technical references for equivalent large-scale brand galas.

3. Project Brief

“1996–2026: Thirty years mark a long journey driven by passion.” Launched on June 1 at Ningbo Olympic Sports Center, Peacebird’s 30th anniversary gala consisted of founder keynote sharing, original corporate anthem premiere and the iconic POWER ON runway showcase. The latter half transformed the stadium into an immersive outdoor-style fashion party, with brand ambassador Zhang Jingyi and professional footballer Li Sirong as special guests. Legendary vocalist Han Hong debuted Wings of Dreams, the custom-made theme song exclusively composed for the brand’s 30-year milestone, lifting the whole venue to a fever pitch. At the gala’s core highlight, suspended wing-shaped fixtures formed digital numerals “3” and “0” into an infinity symbol, illuminating the anniversary stage. Behind this iconic visual effect stand the 70 Fengyi 65kg 15m Lingsheng hoists serving as the production’s powerhouse core. Leveraging the venue’s ample overhead clearance, the units drove massive perimeter ice screen rigs and hanging installations with millisecond-level synchronous precision. Their coordinated vertical movement perfectly fulfilled the gala’s core slogan: “Ignite a brand-new chapter with the flicker of stage lights, bid farewell to the past and march forward anew” as spotlights switched on for guest appearances and the POWER ON countdown sequence. This document walks through full project execution including site evaluation, structural layout and digital motion programming.

5. In-depth Project Analysis

5.1 Venue Restrictions & Cluster Layout Challenges

Ningbo Olympic Sports Center features a grid-style overhead steel framework with outstanding load performance, yet anchor points are unevenly spaced alongside obstructions including fire pipelines and electrical cable trays. The 70-unit hoist cluster generates over 4.5 tons of static dead load, with dynamic peak loads spiking further during acceleration and deceleration phases, imposing stringent structural requirements. Professional structural engineers completed comprehensive top-floor mapping, distributing 70 anchor points across multiple primary trusses fixed with chemical expansion bolts, with a minimum structural safety factor of 8 per hanging spot.
 
Additionally, seamless splicing of large suspended ice screen arrays demands grouped synchronous vertical travel across the full 15m stroke; minor positional deviation on any single hoist would result in uneven screen seams or tilted suspended props. Equipped with closed-loop servo drives and high-resolution encoders, Fengyi’s engineering team confined inter-unit synchronization error to visually imperceptible margins, guaranteeing flat, gap-free movement of dozens-of-meters-wide LED ice screen arrays throughout lifting cycles.

5.2 Product Selection Rationale: Why a 70-unit Lingsheng Cluster?

Combining corporate summit, live music performance and high-spec runway presentation, Peacebird’s anniversary gala calls for intricate multi-layer stage mechanics. To deliver the avant-garde “New Trend Reborn” visual concept of the POWER ON showcase, the production required massive hoisting capacity for oversized ice screen walls, multi-tier beam light matrices and aerial stage art installations. Conventional single-point rigging or small-size mini hoists fail to satisfy combined requirements of heavy payload, long travel stroke, high synchronization and rapid motion response.
 
Fengyi’s 65kg 15m Lingsheng hoist stands out for three core strengths: its 65kg rated load effortlessly lifts individual 2m×3m LED ice panels or multi-fixture truss rigs holding 12~15 high-power beam moving lights; 15m full vertical stroke allows complete retraction of stage props into overhead trusses for the iconic “pop-out from nowhere” visual effect; ±1mm pinpoint positioning ensures precise edge alignment during multi-panel screen assembly. Most critically, dual-rope mechanical backup plus integrated centrifugal fall arresters deliver robust physical safety assurance for an event with celebrity aerial appearances and oversized suspended installations in front of thousands of spectators.

5.3 Cluster Grouping & Digital Motion Choreography

To perfectly align all 70 hoists with live music, lighting cues and video playback for POWER ON, technicians completed refined group assignment and SMPTE timecode binding on grandMA3 control system:
  • Group Classification: Total 70 units split into three independent clusters: Main Backdrop Ice Screen Group (30 units), Flank Lighting Matrix Group (25 units), Aerial Art Installation Group (15 units). Each subgroup supports separate programming and cross-group linkage via macro commands.
  • Custom Motion Curves: As brand ambassador Zhang Jingyi steps onto stage, the main screen cluster ascends linearly at 0.8m/s alongside instantaneous lighting flash effects to create a striking “rising out of ground” impact; during Han Hong’s live rendition of Wings of Dreams, the aerial art group shifts to gentle S-curve motion (peak speed limited to 0.2m/s), slowly unfurling giant wing-shaped sculptures mimicking flapping bird wings.
  • SMPTE Timecode Sync: All hoist movement commands lock millisecond-perfect with audio and video timeline. During the “3, 2, 1” opening countdown, corresponding subgroups execute short pulsed up/down strokes beat-for-beat, generating distinctive mechanical percussive rhythm matching visual countdown cues.

5.4 Multi-layer Safety & Redundancy Design for Large Cluster Deployment

A multi-tiered honeycomb redundant safety framework is implemented to secure large-scale cluster operation:
  • Control Redundancy: Full-size grandMA3 main console paired with grandMA3 Light backup unit running real-time session synchronization; backup system seamlessly takes over full control within 1 second upon primary console failure.
  • Signal Redundancy: Ring-structured Art-Net network ensures uninterrupted data transmission despite single cable or node breakdown; each hoist receives duplicated DMX512 and Art-Net dual-signal inputs for mutual backup.
  • Power Redundancy: Dual independent mains power feed from separate distribution cabinets plus online UPS (≥30min backup runtime). In case of grid fluctuation or temporary blackout, all hoists automatically lift loads to top dead position and lock mechanically.
  • Mechanical Redundancy: Factory-standard dual wire rope setup (primary load cable + spare safety cable) plus built-in centrifugal fall arrester per unit. Pre-show full-load endurance testing over continuous 48 full-stroke cycles was performed on all 70 hoists to monitor motor temperature, current waveform and cable tension, verifying stable performance under extreme working limits.

6. Customized Project Solution from Fengyi

Fengyi supplied a full turnkey CNC hoisting solution tailored to Peacebird’s rigorous production specifications:

6.1 Structural Load Optimization for Oversized Cluster

Capitalizing on the product’s 15m long-stroke feature, 70 heavy-duty anchor points were evenly distributed across primary overhead trusses with full structural load calculation to keep every truss within its rated load allowance. Multi-point synchronized grouping eliminates cumulative dimensional tolerance, keeping assembled ice screen joints tightly fitted during lifting and parking to deliver clean, seamless backdrop visuals for runway sequences.

6.2 Digital Bus Integration with Fashion Runway Programming

All Lingsheng hoists are fully integrated into grandMA3 central control network via Art-Net for parameterized cue programming. During the core POWER ON show, subgroups are assigned to independent timecode tracks: slow long-stroke movement simulates soaring bird ascension during group model catwalks; ultra-fast instantaneous motion synchronizes with Han Hong’s vocal climax to lock the iconic “wings spreading upward” finale frame. Built-in real-time load monitoring feeds each hoist’s operating current, positional data and motor temperature back to the console via Art-Net, enabling dynamic motion curve adjustment to prevent unexpected overload conditions.

6.5 On-site Professional Technical Support Team

Eight Fengyi engineers split into mechanical, electrical and control subgroups arrived on-site one week in advance with full spare parts inventory for pre-event preparation. Daily full-load synchronized testing ran all 70 units through five complete up/down cycles, with operational data logged and cross-referenced against previous days’ records to spot hidden faults proactively. During show night, technicians were stationed at key control zones with real-time load surveillance, enabling zero-error full gala execution.
