Vertical glass louvres cover a total area of around 500 m² and define the appearance of the BMW headquarters in South Africa. They turn with the help of elero's LIMALine 150 drive system and ensure just the right amount of natural light and warmth around the clock.
41 linear actuators from elero were installed as part of a sustainable architecture project in Spain. The building in the Valencia region is one example of how intelligent building technologies can be used to achieve biophilic goals: dynamic façades provide shade for the building and can generate electricity in an environmentally-friendly manner. In addition, the management of daylight ensures pleasant illumination of the interiors and thus a healthier work climate.
When the extension to Rosenheim primary school was built in 2005, the main requirements were to ensure privacy while making optimum use of natural light. The solution was to install 38 vertical metal louvres in front of the windows. The louvres are operated by an elero LIMAline 300 drive system.
The patented crossbar made by Karl Wrede Stahl- und Maschinenbau GmbH is used during the installation of foundation structures for offshore wind farms. It is used to lift these "tripod" foundations from the deck of the ship into the North Sea. The locking elements on the crossbar are moved by a Vario 2 linear drive.
Insolis linear drives adjust the solar panel horizontally (according to the angle and elevation of the sun) in a dual-axis tracker, allowing for efficient solar tracking.
Retractable roofs are flexible roofing systems for terraces and other structures with large louvres made of glass, aluminium or stainless steel. Thanks to the Picolo 0 linear drive, the large-scale louvres are easily operated via a wall transmitter and can be completely closed if the weather changes suddenly.
The new building for the Egyptian Museum and the University of Television and Film in Munich is sleek and elegant. elero Econom 01 linear drives operate over 200 pivoting louvres at the Munich art venue and ensure an optimal indoor climate.
The reception area of the Stuttgart trade fair building is an impressive space with a lot of glass and natural light. A horizontal shade installed under the glass roof ensures pleasant indoor temperatures. The louvres are precisely positioned using elero Econom 0 linear drives.
