New roof constructions.


Safety roof without braces

The machine tools had to be secured at the top for reasons of job safety.

The task: Although the covers to be constructed do not have to bear the same load as the side walls, they need to ensure a high degree of stability to effectively block flying chips.


  • Roof construction without interior supports.

Based on our PROTECT-PANEL system, we developed a roof with a sandwich design that is both light-weight and stable.

To dispense with inner braces, a bearing structure was selected that is also used for suspension bridges: Steel cables and pylons assume the static function for the roof elements.

Roof construction similar to a convertible

Since workpieces are frequently supplied by cranes in processing centres, the roof was designed to open a few locations. This opening was created by two movable elements that telescopically overlap. The sliding roof elements take up very little space when open.



  • Roof opening to supply workpieces by crane.

  • Sliding roof elements in different opening positions.
