# Carousel 5000

> PhotoRobot low-profile heavy-duty turntable for cars and machinery, with a 4000 kg load capacity.

Category: Hardware.

The Carousel 5000 is a PhotoRobot motorised rotating platform for photographing cars, furniture and heavy machinery. Its low profile lets a car be driven onto the plate without an access ramp or crane.

## How PhotoRobot uses it

The Carousel 5000 carries up to 4000 kg (evenly distributed) and has a plate with access ramps of 5640 mm in diameter. It comes in a model installed on top of an existing floor and a model recessed into the studio or showroom floor. PhotoRobot states it enables studios to photograph more than 60 cars in a day; grooves along the plate perimeter allow air-driven removal of dirt and dust.
