FLYSPARK SF-Z5 Static and Dynamic Spark Machine
Overview
The FLYSPARK SF-Z5 by Spark Fabrica is a professional static and dynamic spark machine designed to deliver dramatic cold firework-style effects with enhanced safety and creative flexibility. Using advanced CST technology, the SF-Z5 heats specialised metal powder to produce bright silver spark fountains with both static and dynamic motion effects—creating powerful stage moments without the risks associated with traditional fireworks. Featuring an impressive selection of 72 preset static and dynamic firing sequences, an adjustable 3–5 metre effect height, and a wide 180° shooting angle, the SF-Z5 is ideal for weddings, concerts, sporting events, conferences, and high-impact entertainment productions.
Design and Build Quality
Built for demanding event use, the SF-Z5 features a durable stainless steel enclosure and a compact, show-ready design that is easy to position on stages, platforms, and performance areas. With a fast heat-up time of under 5 minutes, the unit supports rapid setup and efficient show turnaround. The 200g powder tank provides consistent output performance, while DMX-512 control via a 3-pin connection allows smooth integration into professional lighting and effects systems. Designed for both dynamic movement sequences and static spark fountains, the SF-Z5 is an ideal special effects device for productions that require reliable output and repeatable results.
