TORMAX iMotion Technology
Taking swing and sliding door automation to new levels, TORMAX sustainable iMotion technology guarantees optimum operational performance and energy efficiency by combining a high torque synchronous motor with sophisticated sensors and a ground-breaking control system that utilises LIN bus technology.
Reliable and Flexible
Designed for reliability and fully compliant with RoHS standards, the iMotion range of automatic door drives is tested well beyond current industry requirements. The high powered synchronous motors have none of the parts which usually wear out, such as gears and brushes, delivering near-indefinite life-expectancy. Further minimising maintenance, a health and safety self-monitoring system automatically makes necessary alterations in performance or signals an alert. Modular by design, expanding an iMotion door system is straightforward and cost-effective as requirements changed.
Sustainable
A sustainable option, iMotion automatic door operators are almost entirely manufactured using recyclable materials. In addition, energy consumption and heat loss from a building is minimised with iMotion technology allowing doors to be set for ‘reduced opening’ but automatically adapting if pedestrian traffic builds up from both directions. To accommodate site specific requirements individual adjustments can still be made via a user-friendly control panel. Performance is guaranteed thanks to self-monitoring torque control which adapts door operation to take account of factors such as high winds or a build-up of dirt, which may otherwise cause the door to slow down.
Complete Solution
iMotion technology is the result of dedicated research and development by the TORMAX head office team in Switzerland and is one of the most advanced solutions available in the marketplace today. TORMAX offer a full range of automatic door entrance systems that benefit from iMotion technology including sliding, curved and angular sliding doors as well as swing doors that are powered by discrete operators installed under the floor.

TORMAX Helps Makes Sea Lanes Brighton Accessible (March 2024)
TORMAX Helps Makes Sea Lanes Brighton Accessible (March 2024)
_______________________________________________________________________
Transforming this beachfront area of Brighton, Sea Lanes is the UK’s first National Open Water Swimming Centre. At the core of the development is a 50m, 6 lane open air heated swimming pool, supported by a vibrant commercial centre that includes health and fitness specialists, food and drinks providers, office space and retail outlets.
Designed to deliver an accessible and inclusive environment, visitors to Sea Lanes are welcomed into the main pool building through a TORMAX automatic sliding entrance system. The single leaf door is powered by a TORMAX 2203 drive, which at a height of just 100mm, is discreet and unobtrusive. Combining cutting-edge power electronics with proven motor technology, the drive delivers unparalleled reliability and longevity.
Privately funded by a passionate group of Brighton-based businesses and open water swimming enthusiasts, Sea Lanes Brighton is centred on physical wellbeing and environmental sustainability. Ensuring the facility is commercially viable and sustainable, the scheme includes a range of carbon neutral, modular units providing flexible space for local, independent businesses.
“It has been great to be involved in such a community-driven project,” comments MD for TORMAX, Simon Roberts. “It is an inspiring development that has brought life back to a previously derelict site.
“All visitors can access the facility via a ramp up to the automatic sliding entrance. Once inside, there’s level access throughout, a ‘Changing Places’ toilet and changing room, a wheelchair accessible wc and finally, assisted hoist access into the pool.”
With over 60 years of expertise in the design and manufacture of automatic entrance systems, TORMAX UK has installed revolving, sliding, swing and folding doors in a multitude of locations. With a focus on reliability combined with planned annual maintenance, many systems have been known to continue working for in excess of 25 years.
Supporters of the Sea Lanes development include Brighton based swim coach Andy White, Copsemill Properties, QED Sustainable Urban Developments and SwimTrek.
TORMAX Delivers Safe Access at New Durham Bus Station (Feb 2024)
TORMAX Delivers Safe Access at New Durham Bus Station (Feb 2024)
_______________________________________________________________________
Recently completed, the new multimillion pound bus station in the heart of Durham City, features 12 sliding doors that give travellers safe access to embark the buses at the appropriate time. Installed by NE&C Windows & Doors Ltd, the access points are automated by technologically advanced TORMAX iMotion 2202 operators.
Designed for reliability, TORMAX iMotion operators deliver an exceptional life-span thanks to their unique, Swiss-engineered design. With all parts that generally wear out, such as gears and brushes, having cleverly been removed, an above average life expectancy is delivered along with minimum maintenance requirements, reducing overall cost of ownership.
IMotion also ticks the sustainability box too, with over 95% of the operators being manufactured from recyclable materials.
Located on the site of the old bus station, the state-of-the-art facility offers a safe and welcoming space, encouraging Durham residents and visitors to use this more sustainable form of transport, and helping increase footfall into the city centre.
Light and airy, the new building has increased the space available for waiting passengers and offers parent and child toilets, improved information displays and additional seating.
Each of the 12 external bus bays is accessed through a TORMAX automatic single sliding door, allowing passengers to wait safely inside, with a clear view of when their bus is ready to board.
Installed in bustling destinations globally, the TORMAX AC motor technology and advanced microprocessor control system, work together to provide continuous monitoring of door leaf movements, making automatic adjustments as necessary to deliver exceptionally reliable operation.
The iMotion operators have also been fully certified for rescue and escape routes, and for when the bus station closes its doors at night, an electro-mechanical locking mechanism ensures a high level of security burglary protection.
