In 2011, the professional rigging field witnessed the launch of the UFO, the world's first 3D rigging plate. In 2013, Rock Exotica enhanced the original design and presented the rockStar. This remarkable rigging plate offers numerous benefits. It orients towards applied forces, effectively reducing the impact of torque. By providing anchor points at various angles and directions, it simplifies the rigging process and the attachment of connectors. Weighing only 470 gm, which is just one - third of the original 3D rigplate's weight, it still provides plenty of practical connection points. Machined from solid, aircraft - grade aluminum alloy, it combines strength with a weight advantage. The part number is RP22, with an MBS of 36 kN. It measures 75mm in width, 93mm in height, and 65mm in depth. Made of aluminum alloy, its CE certification is pending. Similar to the UFO, the rockStar offers rigging professionals multiple advantages over flat rigplates. It provides the 'floating anchor' phenomenon, which is extremely helpful in dynamic work environments. Now, professionals can connect multiple lines from different dimensions, making it much easier to create an anchor in space, a task that was once cumbersome and complex. Like many Rock Exotica products, the rockStar is machined from a solid aluminum block, adding to its strength and agility.

Using the Rock Exotica Rock Star 3D Rig Plate is quite straightforward. First, identify the applied forces and orient the plate accordingly to reduce torque. Then, use the anchor points at various angles and directions to attach your connectors. This will simplify the rigging process. When connecting multiple lines, take advantage of the ability to connect from different dimensions to create an effective anchor in space. As for maintenance, since it's made of aluminum alloy, keep it dry to prevent corrosion. Avoid using it in extreme conditions that could damage the plate. Regularly check the connection points for any signs of wear and tear. If you notice any issues, stop using the plate and contact the manufacturer.
