SmartSystem Matrix One Pro Bundle

Description

The SmartSystem Matrix Sled Pro makes Static Balancing and Dynamic Balancing extremely easy. The PRO version is perfect for ENG cameras, even heavier models, thanks to the additional counterbalance weights included. It has been equipped with cinema-grade sled functionalities like an ultra fluid gimbal and micrometric non-floating head. The Matrix Sled accommodates an LCD Monitor as well as duo Vlock Battery slots and additional C-Battery slots. Matrix Sled Pro is convenient to transport with its included hard case.

Matrix is Tool Free
You won’t need to use keys any longer to set up your Matrix Sled
Has the operating speed you require
The ability to make slight movements is essential. The use of an exclusive locking levers system and knobs with an ergonomic handle guarantee speed, accuracy and reliability.

1.5″ Carbon Telescopic Post (40mm) Tool-Free
First rate carbon telescopic post with a 40mm diameter to ensure great strength while remaining lightweight.

Ultra-Fluid and Tool-Free Professional Gimbal
The gimbal, as well as being surprisingly fluid, has an innovative locking clamp, minimizing the force necessary for fastening.

Smarthead
Solutions arise from needs. The Matrix Sled’s smarthead allows the operator to disconnect integrally the sled’s head and create new configurations. Thanks to this technology, you can keep your sled up to date and prepared to accommodate future releases by SmartSystem. You can also customize the head according to your specific needs.

LCD Monitor Holder
Matrix Sled can accommodate most popular LCD monitors on the market thanks to its new adjustable stand, specifically designed for this system.

Dedicated Wiring
Each component of your equipment could potentially require a particular voltage in order to work properly. Most commercial sleds have only one wiring in order to connect your battery pack from the lower side of the sled to the upper one. Matrix Sled makes it possible to connect up to three different voltages from your batteries to the component that needs to be powered up. This translates into complete freedom and versatility.

C Battery Plate Included
Matrix Sled Pro is equipped with an additional C Battery plate, giving more power and flexibility to your setup.

Counterbalance Additional Weight
The essence of a steadicam sled is the ability to balance the weight of your camera (including accessories like remote follow focus or particular cinema lenses)
Having more weight on the upper part of your sled can be counterbalanced, increasing the distance of the batteries or monitor from the fulcrum represented by the gimbal. This translates into a less practical sled setup, reducing the ability to boom down (you’ll risk touching the ground with the batteries or lower part of the sled) or hit the sled with your legs during fast movements
Matrix Sled PRO gives you the potential to add up to ten counterbalance weights (7.93 oz/225g each) in order to reach the perfect balance without sacrificing the versatility of your setup

High Quality Connectors
From the original Neutrik XLR to the BNC connector with gold plated contacts, the power and video signal (Full-HD-HD-SDI) are guaranteed with the absence of any insertion loss.

Lemo – Fischer
SmartSystem’s main target is easiness and quickness. Often the worst enemies of a steadycam operator are the cables themselves. The standard connectors used on their sleds are strong, easy to find and, above all, have excellent features.

– Arm X1 –
Designed, engineered, manufactured and hand built exclusively in Italy.

Every single part of Arm X1 is CNC milled inside our facility from the starting stock to the end shape. There are various Aluminum alloys out there but only AL7075 Ergal alloy, the most performing one, was used for Arm X1. Ergal 7075 aluminum guarantees performance similar to that offered by carbon steel at a fraction of the weight. For this reason it is used on high performance automotive, aerospace and robotics industry. Special alloys can lead to special dimensions. Arm X1 is currently the slimmest arm on the market with an outstanding load capabilities.

Tons of Features within an Unique Design
Different design, different approach to problems… like the Arm post system, thought to be reliable and rigid with plenty of options available.

Mathematically speaking, the best answer that a system can give to an external stimulus is what is called “Critically damped” one. The tricky part is this answer is strictly connected to the load applied and to the “force” of the springs used to counterbalance that load. So the question is: How can I get that?

The patented design of XTune, let you tune your ArmX1 to answer exactly as you prefer interacting as a “selective multiplier” of the force of the springs installed.

From super smooth to very responsive… you have the control!

The set life is frantic and setting up an arm for a new load could be time consuming, especially when the new setup is dramatically different respect to the previous shot…

The use of compression springs and the unique leverism obtained with XTune led us to embrace the power of the springs inside the canisters…The result is a design that give to you plenty of space be canisters so no more accidentally stuck clothes, cables and you know…. fingers!

Based on industry standard mating block with a specific attention to right-handed or left-handed operators as well as front mount and backmount vest.

Despite the tiny dimensions, Arm X1 can lift 32kg (70.4 lbs) with an ultimate maximum payload of 34kg (74.9 lbs). The maximum boom range is 728mm (28.5″). Ranging from 6kg (13.2lbs) up to 34kg (74.9lbs), you can definitely fly your current or future setup.

Since March 2021, all the ArmX1 will be equipped with DYNASPRING exclusive Patent Pending Technology that dynamically change and adapt the overall elastic response of the installed spring all over the boom range ensuring an extremely soft operation.

The Suitable Protection for a Valuable Product
A custom resin case with Military specs like DEF STAN 81-41 / STANAG 4280, ATA300 and IP67 is included to carry safely, on your next adventure, your brand new Arm X1.

– Vest Lite –
Engineered around a proven design and based on top quality materials.

Especially for female operators, the possibility to move the thoracic plate on the fly means the ability of the vest to perfectly adapt itself to the female body. Every single plate can be moved independently ensuring the the maximum comfort for operators. The shape of the hip pad and hip support ensures maximum leg freedom and, at the same time, stability for the vest.

The thoracic pads can be stacked in order to give to the operator the best possible comfort. Based on Industry Standard Mating block made from solid Ergal T7075 Aluminum. The ratchet system let you increase the tightening force progressively. The passage from Regular to Goofy operation is fast and straightforward.

The Black/Yellow handle on the back was designed not only to ensure a safe grab for the operator assistant, but it can be used as safety handle in emergency cases. Every textile part can be detached from the Vest and can be easily washed. The 100% cotton lining ensures strengths and durability.

Every component of Vest lite is not molded but milled from solid aluminum, shoot peened and hard anodized to ensure the maximum durability. Extensive tests and studies were made to grant strength to every component but above all to ensure the maximum lightness.

With only 2.9kg (6.4lbs) of weight, Vest lite is most probably the lightest Vest on the market today. A padded backpack is included in the package to carry safely your new vest.

– Hard Case –
Trolley based on Explorer Cases 7745 modified in order to allow the protection for a SMARTCAM ARM (X-LITE or X1) and for a SMARTCAM SLED (MATRIX series).
