Spring arm ACT2 / 19Kg

In the course of the constant development of the artemis product family we realized the new ACT 2 spring arm. Our aim was to put the needs of users of camera stabilizer systems, our long experience in this field as well as new materials and production processes into practice. Design and function of the spring arm reflect on the one hand the core competence of Sachtler and on the other hand our ability to apply technologies and materials used in aircraft construction. 

Main goals of the development were not only to reduce the weight of the arm but also to increase the arm’s rigidity and to maximize its reaction time at the same time. Advanced aeronautical technologies and solutions provided us with the means to make the new arm 1.21 kilograms (2.66 lbs) lighter than its predecessor. This was achieved by developing a lightweight cavity profile that is also the reason for the increased rigidity of the new spring arm. The new spring arm enables quick, precise and soft operating, implemented by the new form that distinguishes itself by smooth and rounded outlines.
Additionally, we also improved many little details within the new spring arm.

The new turnover mechanism of the mating block can be adapted to the preferred operating side in an extremely quick and safe manner. Another new feature of the new ACT 2 arm is the possibility to adjust the angle between the arm and the operator’s body more freely.  The mating block is 3 millimeters higher now; this allows a steeper angle adjustment. 

But despite this modification the arm still fits into vests of other manufacturers and offers also with their vests more possibilities to adjust the angle between the arm and the operator’s body.
