CASE STUDY
Manufacturing Solutions Centre, Conover, NC
The Manufacturing Solutions Center (MSC) Phase II building is a two-story, 75,000 square-foot facility that houses four local manufacturers that graduated from the MSC’s business incubator and expanded MSC services.
ClarkPowell partnered with the MSC to design and install an audiovisual solution in the new building. The project was to include training rooms, conference rooms and a large networking space to aid in the growing resources provided by the center.

ClarkPowell chose to go with the Biamp TesiraLUX AV over IP solution due to how user-friendly the solution is and the equipment availability for a hard deadline for the building opening. The Biamp control solution consists of a Biamp Impera Tango control processor with a combination of Biamp Apprimo room controllers and touch panels.
Included in the install are 12 Sony displays ranging from 55” to 100” and each room has an individual room control. The Sony Bravia BZ40H series of displays were chosen for this project because of their superior picture quality. They are the brightest and most advanced 4K Ultra HD HDR professional displays.
All audio in the training rooms consist of Biamp amplifiers with Biamp Desono ceiling speakers. The audio in the networking area has 8 Biamp Desono pendant speakers.

The three smaller conference rooms are utilizing Biamp Parlé VBC 2500 Conferencing Soundbars for easy use video conferencing. Another conference room features a NEC LED video wall with an ultra narrow bezel and two 10,000 lumens laser projectors that are edge blended to fill the Da-Lite 6.5’X18’ fixed screen.
"Everyone at Clark Powell has been professional and timely in designing and executing our project. From sales, design and engineering we have been very pleased with the company’s performance. They worked through the supply chain challenges due to COVID to design a system that would deliver a quality product in a timely manner. The sales and engineering team worked tirelessly through the installation so that we could meet our facility opening timeline. We appreciate the technology work that a Carolinas based company has done to assist us in the next step in the evolution of our economic development Eco-system here at the Manufacturing Solutions Center."
