ArciTech – Made for the future

The premium platform concept drawer system

The ArciTech drawer system has been developed to let kitchen and furniture manufacturers put together perfect drawers for different furniture lines and personal needs while keeping their own production efficient. With excellent running performance, a high level of stability and low opening forces, the innovative drawer system satisfies the exacting demands placed on furniture from the premium segment.

The Actro runner's running performance is truly impressive: unequalled smooth running action, stability and Silent System come together to create a perfect system. The unique prism principle sets standards. With runners in three loading categories of 40, 60 and, previously unmatched on the market, 80 kg, as well as no need for different cabinet body and front panel drillings, ArciTech can cope with any demand, whether today's or tomorrow's. Requiring very little effort, even heavily laden drawers open gently and quietly. Assistance is also provided by innovative opening systems, such as the electromechanical Easys system or the all mechanical alternative of Push to open Silent.

The platform concept provides the perfect key to differentiating between furniture lines while guaranteeing to keep production lean and cost effective. Based on a single drawer side profile, drawers and extensions can be created in a whole host of different heights and designs. For instance, the railing can be used as standard with the option of fitting TopSide in steel or DesignSide in glass or any other chosen materials. Unlike other systems on the market, the drawer side profile, the drawer rear panel and all drillings always remain unchanged with ArciTech. In addition to many different options for styling the sides, there is also a wide range of standard colours to integrate the drawer in the design of the furniture.

This drawer system additionally impresses with its ease of installation and adjustment. No need for any work on the drawer bottom and rear panels fitted in one direction simplify machine processing and boost cycle times. And when it comes to detail, ArciTech scores yet another goal with front panels that are easy to install and adjust. The drawer front is fitted and removed without the need for tools, in one direction and in one easy action: It simply pushes into place, with an acoustic signal indicating it's firmly locked. The drawer is simply removed by pulling the release levers in opening direction on both sides. The well designed and easily accessible adjustment facility comes with self explanatory symbols. The front panel tilt can also be corrected without tools - either on the railing or using a screwdriver to adjust the DesignSide or TopSide adapters.
