Monorail Systems with BMU Gondola
Cradles for cleaning and maintaining façades can be moved vertically by means of electric cable winches. The travelling and safety cables are automatically wound up. The cables are fastened to special travelling gears mounted on monorail systems (façade rails) or on rail systems (on the roof). The travelling gears can be operated electrically or manually. The rail systems are made of aluminium or steel, depending on the static and structural requirements.
