# C-Class turntables (C850, C1300)

> PhotoRobot C850 and C1300 glass-plate turntables with a steel frame; the C1300 was previously sold as Case 1300.

Also known as: C850, C1300, Case 1300, CASE 1300. Category: Hardware.

The C-Class is a family of PhotoRobot motorised turntables, the C850 and the C1300. Both share the same steel body with a built-in control unit and a white diffusion background; the C1300 accommodates turntable plates of up to 1300 mm.

## How PhotoRobot uses it

PhotoRobot previously distributed the C1300 under the name Case 1300. The C-Class frame weighs over 100 kg, which makes it heavier but more stable than the aluminium [CASE 850](https://www.photorobot.com/robots/case-850) and removes the need for a support bridge under the glass, leaving more angles free for lighting. The machines move around the studio on castors and can take the optional Robotic Arm V8 expansion with a docking station.
