When it comes to professional stage technology, customized solutions are essential. Gross-Funk GmbH, known for its high-quality radio remote controls, has strategically expanded its product portfolio and now develops, among other things, specialized stage dollies for a wide variety of applications. In doing so, the company consistently relies on the profile system from MiniTec GmbH – with impressive results in terms of design, flexibility, and cost-effectiveness.
The requirements in stage technology are diverse: Whether for theaters, event stages, or industrial applications—stage dollies must be stable, mobile, and customizable at the same time. This is precisely where MiniTec’s modular profile system shines. For Gross-Funk, it was crucial to find a solution that offered both high load-bearing capacity and maximum flexibility.
The modular aluminum profile system enables the quick and precise construction of a wide variety of stage dollies. Thanks to standardized connecting elements, the systems can be assembled without complex machining and can be expanded or modified at any time as needed. For Gross-Funk, this means shorter development times and significantly greater adaptability to customer-specific requirements.
The stage wagons can be adapted for a wide range of applications and equipped with various drive systems.
A key advantage of the MiniTec system lies in its ease of planning and implementation. The profiles are designed to be combined intuitively. This significantly reduces the workload for the design engineers at Gross-Funk. Design changes can be implemented quickly without having to completely redesign existing structures.
There are also clear advantages in manufacturing: Assembly is quick and requires no special tools. At the same time, the high precision of the components ensures consistently high quality in the final products. This reliability is a decisive factor, especially in safety-critical applications—a key focus for Gross-Funk.
Stability meets lightweight construction
Stage trucks must not only be robust but also as lightweight as possible to ensure easy handling. MiniTec’s aluminum profiles offer the ideal combination of stability and low weight. The result is durable, resilient structures that can still be moved with ease. For stage technology applications, this means: Faster setup and takedown times, less physical effort, and more efficient logistics overall. At the same time, the necessary safety is guaranteed at all times.
The advantages of the modular profile system become apparent both during on-screen design and during subsequent assembly.
Another advantage is the system’s sustainability. Because the profiles are reusable, existing structures can be adapted or expanded at any time. For Gross-Funk, this opens up the possibility of responding flexibly to future requirements without having to develop completely new systems.
Conclusion
By using the MiniTec profile system, Gross-Funk has found a solution that meets the high demands of modern stage technology. The combination of modularity, stability, and efficiency enables the company to produce custom stage dollies cost-effectively and to a high standard of quality. For customers, this means tailor-made solutions that stand out for their reliability and durability – a clear competitive advantage in a demanding market environment.
Gross-Funk also uses the profile system specifically – not just as a side project – for building workstations and shelving. With this modular system, the possibilities are endless.
MiniTec itself also used a Gross-Funk stage trailer at the Interschutz trade show for a marketing campaign.
