Objective
As far as technological innovation in the production of manufactured goods is concerned the present trend is to put circuits and microprocessors in these objects. Thus the manufactured goods will have a new functional aspect and an increasing part in the industrial chain.
In the case of the closing sector, this process has started in the 60s' with automatisms for doors or gates for instance or systems for windows. motorised blinds.
But an organic approach is also needed to consider this closing sector to be of primary importance when one has to choose a building or a house or when safety is concerned.
Then it will become a very important element in the automation of the building trade with a high value added due to innovation, new processes and electronics.
The industrial economic impact could be significant. There has already been an increase of the number of windows in PVC and we could reach a C.I.M. (computer integrated manufacturing) system.
The introduction of new control and automation technologies in the closing sector has also positive spin-off in other sectors such as safety and the glass sector for instance.
