Dormakaba launches intelligent door system
Rümlang ZH - Dormakaba hat das intelligente Türsystem MotionIQ auf den Markt gebracht. Es berücksichtigt beim Öffnen und Schliessen den individuellen Öffnungszeitpunkt sowie die individuelle Dauer der Türöffnung. Das Verfahren spart Energie, trägt zu mehr Sicherheit bei und verbessert barrierefreie Zugänge.
Dormakaba is positioning itself more broadly with an innovation in the areas of energy-efficient buildings and secure operating processes. The global locking technology company from Rümlang has launched an automatic door system called MotionIQ, which, according to a press release, offers building operators a strategic advantage.
The targeted control of opening, hold-open and closing processes can improve the building’s energy balance and reduce operating costs. In addition, barrier-free access to the building is made easier and the use of automatic doors is made safer.
The company, which specializes in security technology and access control, takes personal movement vectors into account: people walk through a door at different speeds. Conventional systems remain open for a certain amount of time every time someone enters a building, which results in a lot of energy escaping. MotionIQ calculates the ideal opening time and the individual hold-open time. To do this, a field of up to 10 meters in the door area is covered with a virtual net. When a person enters the measurement area, sensors record the distance, speed and angle and calculate the door movement based on this. By only leaving the door open for a certain amount of time, less energy is consumed and wear and tear is reduced.
Another advantage of unnecessary openings relates to safety: the door only opens when necessary and closes immediately after passage. This minimizes the risk of accidents and injuries and extends the service life of the drive technology. In addition, the door is perceived less as a barrier.
