The Articulated Mechatronic System (AMS) is an advanced façade access solution engineered to redefine modern Building Maintenance Units. Developed by Manntech and delivered through Façade Access Solutions, AMS integrates mechatronic engineering with intelligent control to support efficient and sustainable high rise building maintenance.
Unlike conventional BMUs, AMS features a lightweight structural concept that significantly reduces rooftop loads. The optimized design enables up to 40 percent faster installation and uses around 20 percent less material. This lowers structural reinforcement requirements and supports cost efficient project delivery. Reduced material use also contributes to lower embodied carbon and improved environmental performance.
The system incorporates precision motion control and smart automation. Operators benefit from enhanced maneuverability across complex façade geometries. Integrated remote monitoring allows real time performance tracking and predictive maintenance planning, helping extend equipment lifespan and minimize downtime.
Core System Capabilities:
AMS represents a future focused façade access technology that aligns with sustainable design strategies and evolving architectural complexity.
Save time in selecting the right facade access solution for your construction project with our comprehensive range of Building Information Modelling (BIM) object files. These models enable you to compare and choose the most suitable options from the initial stages to the project’s completion.
Our BIM models are configurable to meet your specific requirements. By integrating these models during the planning phase, you can optimise and simulate the use of our facade access solutions, minimising potential risks that are often challenging to predict in a 2D environment.
MyBMU collects and displays operational data from BMUs equipped with routers,
providing real-time information on equipment status, usage, and maintenance needs.
