Bucatini / 40 mm / 360° / IP65

The big gesture.

Thick, bold, built for scale.

10 px/m, 100 mm pitch, 28.8 W/m max. When the line needs weight and has to read from the back of the room.

The 3D view needs WebGL. The picture above is a frame of it; every number is in the sheet below.

Rendered to the real numbers: diameters, pixel pitch, 28 mm steel end caps, NL4 feed. Spaghetti's minimum bend is 2 in (50 mm) to centerline. Angel Hair and Bucatini bends are checked per shape, so ask. The Inside view is an illustrative section of the construction: solid diffused silicone around a double-sided PCB. Need the geometry in your own software? The design kit has GDTF, STEP, OBJ and GLB.

ControlKG3 PXL CTRL (sACN / Art-Net / DMX) or KG3 Magic Controllers (WLED)

Full 360 degree emission with the widest body in the range, so the line stays fat from every angle. Power figures are maximums at full white. No UL claims, no brightness claims we have not measured.

Patch and power

Stock lengths, ready to patch.

One output and one universe per run. Need another length? The run calculator does any length in m or ft.

Where it fits

Spec Bucatini when

  • Arena and amphitheater scale
  • Big sweeps, sculpture and outlines that have to read from far away
  • A bold line next to video and strobes without disappearing
  • Floor pieces and set dressing that get looked at up close

Design kit

Draw it in.

GDTF fixture with modes for 1, 3, 5 and 10 m runs, plus STEP, OBJ and GLB straight runs with steel end caps. Vectorworks, Capture, grandMA3 and any GDTF app. Setup notes for each app are on the design kit page.

Draw it in. We'll make it hang.
