Roto Inside | 11.2013 | 1 Edition # 25 Partner and employee information of the Roto window and door technology division Classically modern New handle product range Roto Samba ■■ New at RotoWith its new Samba handle product range for Tilt&Turn timber, PVC and alu- minium windows and balcony doors, Roto now has a third design line to join the established Roto Swing and Roto Line handles. Product Manager Uwe Strohecker gave Roto Inside an overview of the variants now available, and also introduced a new online service. “The new Handle Configurator on the Roto homepage enables window manufacturers and their custom- ers to find the ideal handle for their furnishing style quickly.” In keeping with the “form follows function” design principle, the new Roto Samba handle, semi- circular at the rear and curved at the front, is perfectly shaped in ergonomic terms to support the thumb. A hollow for the index finger defines the grip position, while providing a comfortable place- holder for the hand. This means that the handle can be gripped well in any position and ensures ease of use. “The new Roto Samba product range is certainly something our customers should recommend wherever ergonomic and easy operation is required in combination with classically modern design. Samba Standard is perfect for windows without any special requirements in terms of function or security. Along with two lockable variants, which can be provided as child safety lock or anti-burglary accessories, our Roto Samba product range also comes with the Secustik® variant. A self-locking mechanism prevents any unauthorised displacement of the hardware from the outside, so providing an invisible improvement to security. This is also true for the Roto Samba fitted with a push-to-open button; the button enables the window to be opened easily by gently pressing the button on the handle, yet once closed, it is secure against any forced displacement of the hardware attempted from outside”, explained Uwe Strohecker. Six colours – full product range For windows and balcony doors, Roto also offers a special door handle set with escutcheon-cover version as well as with a flat handle for use on doors with exterior roller shutters. Roto Samba is also available as a TiltFirst solution. Thanks to the special TiltFirst horizontal Tilt&Turn striker and sash stay from the NT modular system, the window is tilted first whereupon it can then only be moved to the open position with a key. All Roto Samba handles are available in three spindle lengths (32, 37 and 43 mm) with screws included, and in the colours white (RAL 9016), grey-brown (RAL 8019), anodised silver, anodised matt brass, matt bronze and titanium. ■■ Aluminium Page 8 Germany: AluVision Designo with RAICO ■■ New at Roto Page 7 Hungary: Article master data for Archimede software ■■ Research Page 5 Hitoshi Takeda: Production flow and waste reduction ■■ PVC Page 10 Russia: BiMax with Teplowin brand windows The Roto Samba handle product range can be easily combined with different frame materials such as PVC, timber or aluminium.

Reinforcement for aluminium hardware product range Surface-mounted hinge side for Roto AluVision T 540 A new reinforcement for the Roto AluVision T 540 multi-purpose hardware product range: a surface-mounted hinge side, which has been certified in accordance with QM 328 for Euro-chamber profile systems and sash weights up to 160 kg.

Combined with the Roto AluVision T 540 central locking system, this provides efficient burglary protection up to RC 3 in accordance with DIN EN 1627–1630. Thanks to the optional accessories availa- ble, the new hinge side can help win even challenging tenders: the maintenance-free, damped turn-restrictor has an absorbent func- tion, which provides an elegant, easy-to-use solution and takes the strain off the hinge side. The sash stays used with stainless-steel rods in left and right hinge side versions come with a 190 mm tilt depth, creating good ventilation capacity for installation in profiles with large installation depths. This can be a vital criterion – for example, in the case of certified alu- minium window systems for passive (low-E) houses. The stay bearing with counter bearing can be connected to an additional fixing con- necting-link. Additional stability for the new hinge side is provided by a corner hinge with an additional screw and reinforcement. ■■ New at Roto The multiple-purpose Roto AluVision T 540 hardware product range provides reliable load bearing for alumini- um windows and balcony doors up to 300 kg.
