Automating sliding windows

Clever drives for your vertical sliding window - tomorrow‘s room concepts.

Large windows have become an integral element of facade design and hospitality concepts. Sliding windows provide the fl exibility you need - and the ideal outlook. Automated large-format windows allow you to create your own personal well-being experience at the press of a button. They can also be integrated into central control systems or smart home solutions at any time - for even greater convenience in your own four walls.

Nowadays, energy-efficient ventilation and air conditioning of interiors is a must for clever building automation. Even better when electric vertical sliding windows create a cosy space without any assistance. Any time of year, and in any weather. This makes it particularly important for perfectly smooth operation of large window walls to be guaranteed in case of heavy wind loads and rain. Our drive is the centrepiece and, with its range of functions and special parametrisation, it provides the best possible protection for your application.

Always the right solution

Becker offers an operator optimally designed for the weight of the sash for virtually any window size. The operators are characterised by innovative features that ensure absolutely safe operation. One example of this is the self-correcting length compensation. The software integrated into the operator ensures highly precise shut-off and automatically compensates for any elongation. This eliminates the need to readjust the end positions after prolonged use.

The integrated soft-stop function is also worth highlighting. This ensures that the window is securely closed without any gaps forming or the resistance to driving rain being compromised.

Highlights and benefits

Self-adjusting length compensation

The wire cable or belt suspension of these systems has to withstand high and continual weight forces, which inevitably lead to wear and elongation. The software integrated into the drive provides impressively precise deactivation, and automatically compensates for the elongation.
Furthermore, this special software means that there is no need to adjust the limit positions after a long period of use.

Integrated soft stop function
 

The drive has a soft stop function tailored to the system. Its function is, firstly, to make sure that the vertical sliding window closes securely with no air gaps and remains leakproof against driving rain. At the same time, the system is protected against wear because the soft touch function greatly reduces the closing force, which is also adjustable between two levels by the customer.
