Ferno Australia Arachnipod Advantage PLUS Edge Management System
Arachnipod Advantage PLUS Multipod Edge Management System from Ferno Australia is the world's most versatile modular total edge management
system (TEMS) and was recently awarded an Australian International Design Mark
at the 2008 Design Awards. The Arachnipod is based around the concept of an
industrial tripod, however this product is much more than just a tripod.
Components can be added or removed as required so that the Arachnipod
complements existing structural or natural features. The unique design of the
patent-pending modular head means the Arachnipod can be constructed into many
different configurations including a ginpole/monopole, bipod, tripod, quadpod,
bridge system and handrail recovery monopole. For heavy loads an infinite number
of additional legs can be fitted to increase the safe working load (SWL). Its
versatility makes it an ideal system for workers in industries such as rescue
and emergency services, construction, military, utility services, mining, film
and maintenance
How It Works
The Arachnipod, in its most basic form, is a simple
tripod with the three legs independently pivoting from an anodized aluminium
head. The modular head has a similar design to a door hinge. Inserting or
removing a pin through the center of the head allows the quick and simple
addition or removal of components to create a configuration to suit any edge
management scenario. Each head section contains a shackle
The Arachnipod Advantage PLUS includes the basic Advantage Tripod system
(Pulley Head and one swivelling rigging point) and adds a Gin Head, Rigging
Plate, Quad Plate, and Reverse Head. A Quadpod system can be created by adding
the appropriate Quadpod Add-On Kit to the base system. Weight: 60 lbs.
