Ayrton has released its new Stradale Profile, the most compact, lightweight and versatile luminaire in the Ultimate range. A creation built around the unique concept of minimising the fixture’s footprint while significantly enhancing its performance, Stradale Profile is the first ultra-compact luminaire in Ayrton’s brand-new 1 Series. ACT Entertainment is the exclusive North American distributor of Ayrton solutions.
Following in Rivale’s footsteps with a 15% reduction in visual footprint, Stradale Profile’s design embodies the principle of uniformity that defines the Ultimate range. Through meticulous engineering and extreme miniaturisation, every detail is optimised to streamline the structure, refine effect modules and minimise component size.
The new format has led to the development of an all-new, high-efficiency 330W LED module, calibrated at 6500K, delivering a luminous output of 20,000lm. Its light aligns with the optimal black body curve to ensure neutrality.
Engineered for indoor and outdoor use in any environment — even salt-laden conditions, Stradale Profile delivers uncompromising performance and stands apart with a distinctive visual signature. Lightweight construction plays a key role in Stradale Profile’s performance: tipping the scales at just 51.8 lbs (23.5kg), it sets an unprecedented benchmark for its category.
To unlock new creative possibilities, Stradale Profile 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 remarkable 13:1 zoom ratio, with a versatile range spanning from four degrees to 52 degrees.
Stradale Profile introduces an ultra-fast CMY progressive gradient mixing system, ensuring colour transitions, brighter output and uniformity. A refined extended CTO system allows precise adjustment of colour temperature from 2700K to 6500K, 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 delivers a tight beam for a luminaire of this category. A rapid 15-blade iris allows beam optimisation with an adjustable range from 15% to 100%. The framing system enables precise positioning of each shutter blade across 100% of the beam with a +/- 90-degree rotation, ensuring flawless framing in any orientation.
The image section includes 19 high-definition interchangeable glass gobos across two wheels — nine rotating and ten 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 multi-colour filter combined with a distortion gobo to create visual effects. Additionally, Stradale Profile offers two frost filters: one soft diffusion to smooth edges without altering the beam angle and a heavier diffusion for true wash applications.
