Features

General Features

The THEISSEN-Cube© lets this Stationary Infantry Target mechanism lift, slash or turn infantry target silhouettes precisely and vigorously. An external target controller (TC) ensures the communication to the range controller, whether it is the computerized control facility (TACF) or the TTS remote control unit (RCU). It can be conveniently carried by just one field personell and hence repositioned to swiftly modify training scenarios. The location can be altered without the need of infrastructure adaptations. No site preparation is necessary to place the SIT, provided however that the mechanism is protected from direct hits and ricochets.

• Realistic Training Environment

  TTS products increase training realism and stress.
  

  

  Realistic Training Environment

  Several add-ons and accessories are available for TTS target mechanisms to increase training realism and stress.
  

  Enemy fire simulators and hit indicators are added to the target appliances and are used to give a more realistic training environment. The simulators make use of standard pyrotechnic ammunition or are non -pyrotechnic simulators, increasing the safety of the range personnel while reducing the life cycle costs. As more and more modern weapon systems are equipped with infrared night visors, all our target appliances can be equipped with thermal target heating systems, which provide a thermal image on the target that can be clearly identified.

For a highly flexible range layout on shooting ranges most TTS target equipment is designed in a way that its location can be altered without the need of infrastructure adaptations. If required our Equipment will be delivered meeting these requirements:

  • Man-portable
  • Powered by Batteries or Generator
  • Radio remote controlled

• One Man Portable

  One Man Portable

  The SIT can be conveniently carried by one field personell and hence swiftly repositioned to easily modify training scenarios. Its location can be altered without the need of infrastructure adaptations.
  

  

  SIT - One Man Portable

  At a glance:
  

  • One Man Portable
  • Allows Swift Modifications of a Scenario
    

• Pop Up or Lifting Mode

  Pop Up or Lifting Mode

  The target raises out of a cover and lowers.
  

  

  Pop Up Mode - Raised

  This conventional mode allows the presentation of a target raising out of a cover and lowering to hide behind a drawback.
  

• Friend & Foe Mode

  Friend & Foe Mode

  Alternative presentation of a friend or a foe target is possible.
  

  

  SIT Swiveling

  This mode allows the alternative presentation of a friend or a foe target; the targets' side view represents the neutral position since the target board appears to be invisible. Typical applications are pistol shooting and special forces training.
  

• Slashing Mode

  Slashing Mode

  The mode allows the presentation of a target jumping sideways into an opening or a door.
  

  

  Slashing Mode

  The mode allows the presentation of a target jumping sideways into an opening or a door. A typical application is CQB training.
  

• Shearing or Scissors Mode

  Shearing or Scissors Mode

  The silhouette can be sheared to the left or to the right
  

  

  SIT Scissoring

  This mode allows the presentation of a target spying around a corner. It can be used instead of the lifting mode when not enough space is available.
  

Qualitative Features

The use of excellent, corrosion free materials reduce failures caused by climatic influences and thus customers’ maintenance costs considerably.

Economical Features

The THEISSEN-Cube© 's world-patented 4in1-technology makes this product economical. This principle avoids extra costs for storage of spare parts, which would be needed if separate devices for the three purposes would be used. Likewise less training is required and this reduces maintenance costs significantly, too.

• Energy Efficiency

  Energy Efficiency

  Finely tuned electrical and mechanical engineering provides this Theissen target lifter with an extraordinary energy efficiency.

  With its standard 12 V-36 Ah battery the highly efficient design allows up to 20.000 movements (10.000 cycles) without charging.
  
  

Ergonomical Features

In its protection frame the SIT can be conveniently carried and set by two range personell. Designed avoiding sharp edges it offers good and safe handling to the range staff. For transport and storage it can be safely stacked and stored.

Components

• Protection Frame

  Protection Frame

  A rugged protection frame is the backbone of most of TTS's equipment.
  

  

  Protection Frames

  TTS products are delivered on well-dimensioned and steadfast frames.The frame design avoids sharp edges and is providing good handling and a maximum in safety matters. Products in a  frame are comfortably stackable during transport and storable with minimal space requirements. Four guide bars allow staking. Stainless steel used throughout the frame provides durability and resistance to tough climatic conditions and mistreatment. Materials and weld joints are matched to optimize the life of the frame's structure. Hardwearing powder coating finishes the frame and avoids irritating light reflections.

  • Supreme Materials
  • Stackable
  • Smart Design 

• Target Cube

  Target Cube

  The target mechanism`s basic component assures swift movements of targets.
  

  

  Theissen cube

  The Target Cube is lifting any infantry target silhouette precisely and vigorously to simulate a suddenly appearing and disappearing infantry target. It can be programmed to create lifting, slashing, turning or swiveling movements.
  

  The Target Cube’s world-patented 4 in 1-technology makes this product also economical. This principle avoids extra costs for storage of spare parts, which would be needed if separate devices for the four purposes would be used. Likewise, less training is required causing a significant reduction of maintenance costs.

  The Target Cube allows multiple target movements. It can be fixed with a stainless steel clamp in two different positions allowing the following moves:

  • Lifting (raising/lowering)
  • Shearing (shearing up/shearing down)
  • Slashing (swinging in/swinging out/neutral)
  • Turning or Swiveling (friend/foe/neutral)

  With an Add-On the Target Cube© can even be swiftly modified to allow a sliding target presentation.

  The Target Cube is also referred to as SAPU Würfel, Theissen-Cube.

• Target Controller

  Target Controller

  Most target mechanisms are supplied with a lightweight Target Controller.
  

  

  Target Controller

  The controller's housing is made from powder coated, high-grade aluminum. To avoid internal corrosion and to maintain a consistent and optimal performance under all environmental conditions, from equator to the poles, the housing is sealed with a premium sealant. The configurable settings are addressing the complexity of military training and allows a variety of custom operating settings:

  • Number of hits to drop the target
  • Display time, for which the target shall be shown
  • Delay time, after which the target will be raised again automatically
  • Sensitivity of hit sensor
  • Target illumination (optional)
  • Brightness of the illumination (optional)
  • Target heating system (optional)

• Target Fastener

  Target Fastener
