CTC PT8 Motorised Pan & Tilt Remote Head

The CTC Remote Head is a motorized pan and tilt head for cameras weighing up to 3.6 kg. It is suitable for camera cranes, jibs, and other applications where the camera needs to be moved and controlled precisely from a distance.

Control is achieved via a remote control with proportional joystick movement. This allows for both slow, controlled camera movements as well as faster pan and tilt movements.

The scope of delivery includes the pan/tilt head, the remote control, a 30 m cable set, and a power supply.

The Remote Head operates with high-torque DC motors. Maxon digital motors are used, as also found in the PT20 and PT30 models.

The speed is up to 4 revolutions per minute. The full pan and tilt range allows flexible camera positions in studio, crane, and jib applications.

Correct balancing of the camera is important for smooth operation. The camera should be mounted as close as possible to the center of gravity of the pan and tilt axis, so that the motors operate evenly and controlled movements are possible.

The camera mount allows adjustment of the camera position to compensate for different camera weights and form factors. Camera balance should be set carefully, especially with heavier cameras.

The power supply connects via a standard DC barrel connector measuring 5.5 x 2.1 mm. The included power supply provides the Remote Head with the required operating voltage.

When using other power supplies, ensure the correct output voltage and polarity to avoid damage to the unit.

The CTC Remote Head is suitable for video productions, studio use, camera cranes, jibs, presentation setups, and other applications where a camera needs to be panned and tilted from a distance.
