LOGIKAL THINKING
»»Business Micros Aluminium is
showcasing its market leading
LogiKal software for fabricators
working in aluminium at the FIT
Show.
Business Micros Aluminium’s
experts will be on the stand to
guide visitors through lots of
the new features and clever
innovations which they might not
have discovered yet in v10 – things
like being able to open reports in a
separate window, and embedding
elements into a CAD drawing at

planning stage so that they are now
updated as soon as any changes
are made to a project.
For fabricators who might not
have used LogiKal before or who
are new to aluminium fabrication,
the show is the perfect place to
meet the Business Micros team
and find out what makes it the
most widely used system in the
aluminium sector for managing
production, carrying out
estimations, producing quotes
and generating CAD drawings.

For visitors who are at FIT to
look at aluminium machinery
from the likes of Emmegi or
Elumatec, then it’s also the
ideal chance to talk to Business
Micros Aluminium at the same
time about the options for CNC
links within LogiKal.
Business Micros Aluminium
is sharing its with its sister
company Business Micros.

A WIDER CHOICE

range and these will all be on display on the
stand. Alongside a composite door, there will
be a Passivhaus door for applications where
energy performance is the key criteria, a fire
door for areas where high level of protection is
required and both multi-fold and sliding doors
to give a wider choice to consumers who want
to open up their home to the garden.

Probably the most talked about product on
the stand will be the new AGILA sliding door
which offers contemporary slim sight lines to
let more light in, and competes head on with
aluminium with larger maximum sizes and
multi-pane configurations.
REHAU’s marketing and technical director
Gareth Jones said: “The AGILA range
encompasses all of those specialist door
systems which can be made in addition
to standard PVCu window profiles. We
have invested in a range which allows
fabricators to target exciting new market
opportunities.”
