The SēVision 3D GX Giant Electric Motorized Projection Cinema Screens are Ideal for Large Venues Where a Screen Needs to be Raised & Lowered; The SēVision 3D GX-WA Coating Offers Increased Uniformity & Brightness Typically Seen More Often on 2D White Screens
Severtson Screens (www.severtsonscreens.com), a global leader in innovative and quality projection screens for the
cinema, commercial, pro AV, and home theater markets, has announced that it
will feature its new SēVision 3D GX
Giant Electric Motorized Cinema Projection Screen line, as well as its recently launched enhanced SēVision 3D GX-WA
projection screen coating technologies, during
CineEurope 2018, held in Barcelona, Spain from June 11-14
at Centre Convencions Internacional Barcelona (CCIB), booth # 604.
“Our wildly popular giant SēVision 3D GX projection
screens are ideal for large venues where the screen needs raised and lowered,
such as in an opera or play house with a large stage environment,” explained Toby Severtson, president and CEO of Severtson Corp. “It’s also the
perfect solution for multi-purpose auditoriums, such as in commercial,
university/school, house of worship, museum, and pro AV situations that require
large commercial or cinema-sized screens, but not in a permanent static
installation.”
The giant
electric motorized projection screens are available in all offered gain levels as well as in non-perf, cinema
(standard) perf, and microperf so the soundstage can be placed behind
the screen similar to premier movie theatres.
“The SēVision
3D GX Giant Electric Motorized
projection screens were the first giant electric high quality 3D screens
available on the market at these larger cinematic sizes,” Severtson continued.
“Due to our folded screen technology and coating, it has enabled us to create
an electric cinema screen that can be rolled up and down frequently without
damaging the screen’s surface. It’s the perfect answer for what was once an
impossible scenario for a large format cinematic 3D screen.”
Additional
specifications of the new SēVision 3D GX Giant Electric Motorized Cinema
Projection Screen line include:
●
coated surface that is harder to bruise and
scuff
●
small micron flake coating produces a sharper
image, eliminating graininess in bright scenes
●
viewing
angles range from 30 to 40 degree half-gain depending on the specific
screen gain requested
● water-based coating promotes longevity by maintaining optical properties
over time, eliminating flaking and cracking of the screen surface allowing the screen to remain perfect
for frequent rolling up/down
Since the recently announced SēVision 3D GX-WA coating
technology can be folded like other Severtson Screens coatings, it is an ideal
option for the Giant Electric Motorized Screens and thus will also be featured during CineEurope 2018.
“Our enhanced SēVision 3D GX-WA projection screen coating
is a brilliant example of Severtson Screens’ continued quest for quality,
improvement, and innovation,” explained Severtson. “The SēVision 3D GX-WA
coating provides the benefits of the standard SēVision 3D GX coating, but
offers increased uniformity and brightness typically seen more often on 2D
white screens. It
is also engineered specifically to increase the viewing angle over standard
silver screens while also reducing hotspotting.”
Specifications of the enhanced SēVision 3D GX-WA include:
·
Surface: smooth
PVC with a high gain optical coating for perfect texture and gain uniformity
·

on axis +/- 0.2

“Like all Severtson projection materials, SēVision 3D
GX-WA offers the unique benefit of also being foldable, without any damage to
the projection surface,” added Dan Maxwell, Severtson Corp. V.P. & Chief
Operating Officer. “This allows it to be transported in a smaller crate and at
a fraction of the cost, as well as to locations around the world where shipping
was previously far more difficult and expensive. It also makes it an ideal
coating for our Giant Motorized and Giant QuickFold screens.”

Corporation designed a robotic spray-arm application system to paint its
high-performance optical coating in-house on screens as large as 67.75ft.x
150ft. (20.7m x 45.8m). It is currently the largest in-house cinema screen
optical coating system in the world. Severtson Screens certifications and partners
include Technicolor, MasterImage, Dolby, Volfoni, LightspeeD & DepthQ, and
RealD (www.severtsonscreens.com/certifications).
Having celebrated its 30th
anniversary in 2016, Severtson Corporation continues to be a global leader in
innovation and quality. The Severtson family’s extensive experience in
manufacturing small home theater screens and large cinema screens has given
