Robolights Team

Established in 1989, Robolights began designing and manufacturing stage lighting products which were born out of many years working in the industry. The initial product line was an updated and improved version of the colour scroller. In 1999, a prototype for the Smart Socket was developed which once designed has continued to be Robolights’ hero product and is still widely used within the entertainment industry today. Robolights also designed the Smart Clamp which won the ABTT ‘Widget of the year award’ in 2007. All of these products were designed to ease problems that had been identified within this specialist area.

Robolights gained their own premises in Exeter in 2012 when they began designing and manufacturing specialist custom equipment for large scale projects. As far as the equipment allows, Robolights fabricate and manufacture mostly in house but do outsource some elements to local businesses of which they have had long standing relationships with. Investment in new machinery continues to allow the business to accept more complex projects and work flexibly and efficiently.

2017 saw Robolights launch their e-commerce store which has ensured that the Smart Socket along with other specialist equipment can be packaged and shipped across the globe. At present, the e-commerce store has plans to expand and have capacity for a more extensive range of equipment which will complement the bespoke and custom offering. Robolights strive to ensure that they can provide as much of the necessary equipment that entertainment venues require from one source.

The team at Robolights are highly skilled and qualified in electrical engineering and metal fabrication. They have all either had extensive experience working within theatre and lighting or have a passion for it. The team are very knowledgeable so if you would like to discuss a project in more detail please get in touch.
