PREFACE
THE SIMPLEX APOGEE PROJECTOR, combining rugged construction with ease of opera-
tion, provides theatre owners with a superior mechanism, engineered to the high standards set for all Strong
International products. The following design features illustrate why the Simplex Apogee Projector is able
to provide continuously excellent performance throughout its long operating life:
UNIT DESIGN
Unit method of design simplifies part replacement and maintenance. All units may be quickly
removed and replaced. Components within a particular unit are just as easily handled.
SOUND READER
The analog and digital sound reader components are mounted to the same main frame as the optical
elements, insuring a straight film path. Minimal flutter and “wow” comply with all SMPTE standards.
MAIN DRIVE
The projector main drive is connected directly to the drive motor without pulleys and belts, eliminating the
need to adjust tension and/or replace these components.
OPTICS
A conical shutter, positioned close to the picture aperture, provides very high light efficiency. Optical
design is compatible to modern xenon lamphouse systems.
LENS TURRET
The Apogee Lens Turret is available in either Automatic or Manual configurations. The standard
turret accommodates (1) each 2-25/32" (71mm) diameter Wide Screen (flat) and Anamorphic (CinemaScope)
lens without use of a MagnaCom. A three-lens turret is available for export applications. Individual focus
controls permit concise focusing of each lens independently.
FILM COMPARTMENT
The roomy film compartment permits ease of threading and cleaning. The lens turret is hinged and
swings open for added convenience.
GEAR COMPARTMENT
The gear compartment has a removable cover, rounded corners, and an enameled finish which simplifies
cleaning and service.
