A Landmark of Mechanical Artistry

In the heart of Astoria, New York, a vertical revolution in film production is taking place. Wildflower Studios, founded by legendary actor Robert De Niro and designed by the visionary BIG (Bjarke Ingels Group), required a rotation solution that defied traditional engineering limits. Shenyang Weizhong rose to the challenge, delivering a 413-ton capacity ring turntable.

With an expansive outer diameter of over 24.6 meters, this industrial giant is integrated into the studio's logistics core. Despite its massive scale, the platform maintains a incredibly low profile of only 422mm, allowing for seamless floor integration. Utilizing our patented Pin-Gear technology, the system provides whisper-quiet, jitter-free rotation at 0.2 RPM—essential for the precision-driven environment of a world-class film studio.

From Barclays Center to Wildflower Studios, Weizhong continues to be the premier choice for New York's most ambitious architectural landmarks. We don't just build turntables; we engineer the foundations of cinematic and industrial history.
