Supper Moment Band· 2026 Foshan Live concert—YZDITEC Stage Rigging Rental

Project Overview

YZDITEC provided stage automation rental services for Supper Moment Band's 2026 Foshan concert, deploying a comprehensive rigging system centered on EtherCAT-based motion control. The configuration featured 50 servo-driven axes managing three aerial LED screens and dual kinetic lighting trusses, all synchronized to live performance cues with microsecond-level response precision.

1.System Configuration

Motion Control Core:

• 1× EtherCAT automation console (BW Console)
• 50× BGV C1-certified servo chain hoists
• Real-time control loop: <1ms cycle time(Black Warrior system)

Aerial LED Screen Rigging:

• 3× independently controlled LED walls
• Vertical travel coordinated with stage blocking and performer positions

Kinetic Lighting Trusses:

• 2× motorized lighting truss arrays assemblies with multi-axis articulation
• Dynamic formations: linear, V-configuration, figure-eight, double figure-eight, diamond array
• Tempo-locked movement synchronized to musical phrasing

2.😄Then came the unscripted moment: Emergency Response Under Live Conditions

Mid-performance, an LED video wall lift system descended on cue, while the lead singer remained outside the planned clearance zone of LED screen, riding the moment.

Operator triggered an immediate halt. The screen arrested mid-flight—zero overshoot, zero lag, no visible jolt.

Lead singer got carried away.

Our console didn't. 

That's EtherCAT doing its thing: microsecond loop times that turn potential chaos into "yeah, we saw that coming."😎

This response was enabled by EtherCAT's deterministic communication architecture: sub-millisecond loop times ensure that emergency stop commands propagate across the entire 50-axis network faster than human reaction time. The system registered the stop, calculated deceleration profiles for all affected hoists, and executed coordinated braking—all within a single control cycle.

Safety-critical automation isn't about preventing operator input. It's about ensuring the system responds faster than the hazard develops.

3. Kinetic Scenery: Movement as Visual Language

►Three aerial LED walls

Rising. Descending. Defining performance zones.

Both visual centerpiece and dynamic backdrop.

►Dual lighting truss arrays

Functioned as dynamic scenic elements, transitioning between geometric configurations in real time:

Each transition was programmed to musical timing, with acceleration and deceleration curves designed to feel organic rather than mechanical.
Precision here isn't just positional accuracy—it's perceptual fluidity.

4. Technical Takeaway

Fifty hoists. One console. Live performance conditions with no margin for delay.

The defining metric isn't how smoothly the system runs when everything goes to plan—it's how it behaves when the plan changes. EtherCAT gave us the control bandwidth to react in real time. The C1-certified hoists gave us the redundancy to trust those reactions. The Black Warrior console gave the operator full authority without requiring them to manage fifty separate devices.

Design for precision. Operate for people.
