Ayrton has launched Stradale Profile, the most compact, lightweight and versatile luminaire in its Ultimate range. Built around the concept of minimising the fixture’s footprint while enhancing its performance, Stradale Profile is the first ultra-compact luminaire in Ayrton’s new 1 Series.
Stradale Profile follows in Rivale’s footsteps with a 15% reduction in visual footprint. The company said every detail has been optimised to streamline the structure, refine effect modules, and minimise component size.
The new format has led to the development of a new 330W LED module, calibrated at 6,500K, delivering a luminous output of 20,000lm. Stradale Profile is engineered for indoor and outdoor use in any environment – even salt-laden conditions – and weighs 23.5kg. It features infinite continuous rotation as standard on both pan and tilt axes. Equipped with a 140mm front lens, its proprietary 13-lens optical system delivers a 13:1 zoom ratio, with a range spanning from 4° to 52°.
Stradale Profile introduces a CMY progressive gradient mixing system, designed to be ultra-fast, as well as ensuring seamless colour transitions, brighter output and impeccable uniformity. A refined extended CTO system allows precise adjustment of colour temperature from 2,700K to 6,500K, while a seven-position colour wheel, equipped with specialised filters, expands the creative palette. For greater flexibility, Stradale Profile offers a fine-tuned colour rendering index adjustment from 70 to 86.
Stradale Profile is designed to deliver an ultra-intense, tight beam for a luminaire of this category. Ayrton added that a rapid 15-blade iris allows beam optimisation with an adjustable range from 15% to 100%, and that the framing system enables precise positioning of each shutter blade across 100% of the beam with a +/- 90° rotation, for “flawless framing in any orientation”.
The image section includes 19 high-definition interchangeable glass gobos across two wheels – nine rotating and 10 fixed – designed to elevate textural and aerial effects. Stradale Profile’s effects module features a monochromatic animation wheel and two combinable rotating prisms: a five-facet circular prism and a four-facet linear prism designed for striking 3D effects, and a new multicolour filter, combined with a distortion gobo.
Additionally, Stradale Profile offers two frost filters: one soft diffusion filter to smooth edges without altering the beam angle and a heavier diffusion filter for true wash applications.
