Reliable Lifting Solution with Showgear MT-230 Lifting Tower

The Showgear MT-230 is part of a new generation of lifting towers, designed for venues and events where secure vertical lift and stability are essential. With its capacity to handle weights up to 230kg and reach a height of 5.3 metres, this model is well suited for professional use in mobile production, AV set-ups, and staging applications.

Key Features and Benefits

Lifting Capacity and Range

Thanks to its robust winch system, this tower can adjust loads from 25kg to 230kg with precision. Its maximum reach of 5.3 metres means extensive coverage for lighting, speakers, or truss sections, widening its use on events with challenging set-ups.

Integrated Safety Features

The automatic leg locking mechanism, reinforced base, safety pins, and circular bubble increase reliability for crew and equipment, offering an extra layer of reassurance during set-up or breakdown. These features prevent common mishaps such as tilting or accidental release.

Portability and Storage

Removable legs and compact folded length simplify logistics - ideal for productions that move between venues or locations. Four swivel castors allow for easy movement, and because there are no brakes, repositioning is straightforward and quick.

Construction and Stability

Its steel frame and carefully calculated base width (1.42m between legs, 1.97m diameter open) deliver noticeable stability, even at full height. This means crews can trust the equipment when mounting valuable AV gear or truss systems.

Precision Levelling

The built-in bubble ensures accurate levelling so installations stay secure. This is essential in venues with uneven flooring, reducing risks and set-up delays.

Applications

The MT-230 is built for AV professionals, rental firms, and event production teams who demand reliability and adaptability. It's an effective solution in theatres, live music venues, convention halls, and outdoor festivals - anywhere that lighting rigs, trusses, or PA systems require stable vertical lift. Its design benefits touring companies, production crews moving between job sites, or anyone needing secure truss lifts for temporary set-ups. Exhibition builders and AV integrators will appreciate the space-saving design and dependable mechanics, which reduce assembly and breakdown time across different projects.

Summary

Engineered for reliability, the Showgear MT-230 truss lifter brings together a durable steel build, smart design for mobility, and multiple safeguards to meet the needs of technical staff and production crews. With a 500kg winch, well-sized castors, removable legs, and precise safety systems, it covers every angle of modern AV and staging requirements - a workhorse in the category of lifting towers.
