ETC motorized hoists incorporate a variety of patented technologies that enable us to provide safe, powerful systems at a fraction of the size and weight of other options. Our innovative compression tube eliminates lateral loads on the building which allows many venues not designed for rigging to enjoy the benefits of safe, efficient setup. P2 hoists boast an array of integrated safety features: double electromechanical motor brake, rotary limit switches, load cell with load profiling, automated slack line detection,  and more.

Prodigy Compression Tube  – Rigging anywhere. The innovative backbone of the Prodigy system absorbs and disperses lateral loads on building steel. Simply lift and snap into Prodigy mounting brackets for time and labor-saving installation.

Prodigy Right Angle Cable Adjuster (RACA)  – Saves space, work, and time. Prodigy’s RACA replaces turnbuckles to eliminate several inches of dead hang and takes only seconds (not minutes) to adjust.

Prodigy Powerhead  – Lighter than other automated hoists and one-third of the length. When used with Compression Tube, the Powerhead ships with the drop blocks and lift lines installed and pre-strung ready for easy, time-saving installation.

Prodigy Progressive Hybrid Sloped Drum  – Our patented drum design dramatically reduces the space needed for a motorized hoist. The smaller drum size means a streamlined Powerhead for the most compact rigging system on the European market. You can install Prodigy hoists where others won’t fit.

Every Prodigy hoist is tested under full load before it leaves the factory. All electrical and electronic connections, lift-line integrity and terminations, limit-switch functions, operation switches, and other components are tested by ETC factory technicians.
