Hello everyone,
The ideas and suggestions on the console design were so relevant and helpful that we would like to take this opportunity to do the same with the platter. Again, not re-inventing the wheel here, going with what we know works and updating as the ideas and resources allows. We look forward to your comments and suggestions, and although we may not be able to implement everyone’s suggestions into the products, we certainly appreciate your participation and will consider them all.

Features
• Solid-state control circuit - Platter and make-up table drive electronics are compatible/pluggable cards • IR/Photo-diode control sensors • Independent, optimized payout and take-up control sensors – 180deg payout filter and 70 deg take-up filter for more precision and graduated acceleration. • Integrated film payout 'over-tension' sensor and take-up 'not ready' sensors – contact closure interface to any automation. • 52in [1.32m] scratch resistant decks with 'micro-groove' textured surfaces – single sided spun aluminum decks with a second disk bonded to the lower edge for support instead of the typical ribs. Advantage, no ‘head smacking’ or ‘fan effect’ from the ribs. • Fixed roller clusters, no slide bar • Bodine drive motors – natural rubber drive wheels. • Self-aligning in-coming and out-going guide rollers • ‘Over center spring’ motor release mechanism • LED power indication and threading lights • Standard film cleaner mounting provisions • Recessed center feed plate - film aligns perfectly with protective keeper rollers • Elevated payout rollers • Large and small diameter take-up rings • Bronze roller bearings/bushings on all rollers and keepers • Packaging design to reduce on-site set-up time • Vertical or horizontally configurable make-up table • Colors – Column (Blue), Rollers (Grey), Deck (Grey), Brackets (Black).
