NEW ROBE ROBIN FORTE Fresnel

Never be short of output again as the NEW ROBE ROBIN FORTE Fresnel, with its classically soft beam, delivers powerful, intense washes of light without losing theatrical subtlety or control, providing the most velvety-smooth washes possible for stage, broadcast, and film applications.

High-Output Fresnel Wash with a Classic Beam

Harnessing the immense strength of the engine through its 200mm front lens, the FORTE Fresnel, with its wide-ranging 10:1 ratio 6°- 61-degree zoom, offers a viable alternative to traditional 2.5 KW and 4 KW HMI Fresnels, within its class-leading sub 40 Kg frame. The TE 1.000W XP (Xtra Performance) White 6.700 K LED Transferable Engine generates a blistering 90.200 lumens, and the FORTE Fresnel outputs 40.500 lumens (integrating sphere) from the front of the fixture for big, statement washes with familiar Fresnel softness and edge control.

Color Finesse for Theatre, TV, and Live Events

Maintaining Robe’s reputation for exceptional colour mixing, the CMY system provides smooth colour transitions from subtle pastels to saturated looks. Combined with two colour wheels, remotely selectable CRI 80 and CRI 90 filters (base CRI 70), and a variable CTO from 3.000 - 6.700 K, you can match cameras, practicals, and existing rigs more confidently. For film and television work, Cpulse flicker-free software is ideally suited for the latest camera systems, removing any on-screen flicker, and the dedicated plus and minus green control channel (ChromaTint) simplifies picture control.

Precise Beam Shaping and On-Stage Control

The FORTE Fresnel has unsurpassed levels of beam control for a modern wash fixture, including medium and light frosts; RotaScrim graduated filter with position control, +/- 180° rotation and edge colour correction for managing hotspots and asymmetrical lighting on drapes or scenery; and the rapid 4Door internal barndoor system for accurate individual leaf control and +/- 90° module rotation to keep beam shaping fast and repeatable.

Quiet Performance and Clean Optics

FORTE Fresnel comfortably operates within noise-sensitive environments, featuring specialised noise-dampening engineering and an array of fan control options. AirLOC (Less Optical Cleaning) technology reduces airborne particles drawn across optical elements, helping maintain light quality and extending time between routine maintenance.

Dimming, Stability, and Long-Term Serviceability

For theatrical suitability, advanced L3 Low Light Linearity dimming provides ultra-smooth fades to black, and Tungsten Emulation helps integrate with traditional lighting rigs. EMS (Electronic Motion Stabiliser) technology reduces fixture tremble for cleaner stops and steadier looks.

Robe’s self-referencing, data-capturing Transferable Engines can be changed within five minutes (Robe patented technology). The L70/B50 ratings of 50.000 hours and 4-Year, 20.000-hour warranty support long-term operation in rental, venue, and studio inventories.

Control and Network Integration

FORTE Fresnel supports a comprehensive protocol suite for straightforward integration into modern control systems, including USITT DMX 512, RDM, ArtNet, MA Net, MA Net 2, and sACN. REAP (Robe Ethernet Access Portal) enables direct communication over Ethernet networks, and Epass helps maintain network connectivity. CRMX Wireless DMX control is available on request.
