Underwater Lifting & Rotating Stage | 3 Independent Rings + DMX512 Control

POSTED: 4/27/2026

Visão geral

Project: Underwater lifting & rotating stage (3‑tier cake structure)
Client: Suzhou Siyan Culture Development Co., Ltd.
Industry: Cultural tourism & performing arts
Key challenges: Underwater corrosion, 3 independent rings, DMX512 control, 30m hydraulic piping, tight access (1500×2000mm)

Suzhou Siyan Culture Development Co., Ltd. is producing a high‑end show integrating water, wind and lighting. Immersive cultural tourism is booming across China – sold‑out water shows in Wuhan, immersive performances in Suzhou (Panmen, Zhouzhuang, Lion Hill Grand Theatre). Demand for custom stage equipment is surging.

Solução

2.1 Corrosion Protection: Hot‑Dip Galvanising + Multi‑Layer Coating

Approach: Conventional stages have no corrosion protection. This stage operates fully submerged. Solution: hot‑dip galvanising (sacrificial anode protection) + epoxy primer + PVC topcoat.

Advantage: Dual protection – even if topcoat is damaged, the zinc layer continues to protect.

2.2 Eco‑Friendly Medium: Water‑Glycol Fluid

Approach: Hydraulic oil leaks produce oil films on water. Switched to water‑glycol fluid – transparent, no visible film. Paired with hydraulic water cylinders and water pumps.

Advantage: Zero water contamination, reduced maintenance, pure visual effect.

2.3 Three Independent Rings: Enhanced Choreography

Approach: Outer ring Φ7000mm, middle Φ4900mm, inner Φ2800mm. Each lifts separately (travel 600/1000/1500mm) and rotates independently (VFD, 1‑5 min/rev).

Advantage: Full creative freedom – complex motions like inner rising while outer rotating, synchronised with water, wind and lighting.

2.4 30m Remote Piping: Redundant Pre‑embedding

Approach: Pump station 30m from pit edge. Pipes must be embedded before stage arrives. Redundant interfaces added because fountain hole locations are not finalised.

Advantage: Proactive coordination avoids delays; redundancy absorbs site changes.

2.5 DMX512 Unified Control: Sync with Lighting & Fountain

Approach: Industry‑standard lighting protocol DMX512. Each ring has three position states (low/middle/high) and three rotation states (forward/reverse/stop), with repeat positioning.

Advantage: Stage motion can be choreographed like lighting cues – true water‑moves‑with‑music, stage‑rotates‑with‑light immersion.

2.6 Tight Access: Segmented On‑Site Assembly

Approach: Entrance only 1500×2000mm – a fully assembled Φ7000mm ring cannot enter. Solution: fabricate each ring in radial segments (each ≤1500mm wide), transport separately, weld in the pit.

Advantage: “Divide and conquer” – fits through narrow access, reduces on‑site lifting difficulty, modular interfaces maintain factory‑calibrated performance.
