fastvindu

Fastvindu is a term sometimes used to describe a window that opens and closes very quickly, often with a motorized mechanism. This rapid operation can be beneficial in certain applications where time is a critical factor or where a quick seal is needed.

The term itself is a portmanteau of "fast" and "vindu," which is the Swedish word for window. While not a formally recognized architectural or engineering term, it effectively conveys the idea of a high-speed window.

Applications for fastvindu technology can be found in various industrial settings. For instance, in cleanroom environments, rapid door and window closures are essential to maintain air pressure differentials and prevent contamination. In manufacturing, fast-acting windows might be used on assembly lines to allow for quick material transfer or inspection without significantly disrupting the workflow or environmental controls.

The design of a fastvindu typically involves powerful electric motors, specialized track systems, and robust sealing mechanisms to ensure both speed and effectiveness. Safety features are also paramount, often including sensors that detect obstructions and halt the window's movement to prevent accidents. The precise speed and operational characteristics would vary depending on the specific requirements of the installation.
