Digital Tools by Intertecnica: a true revolution in the refrigeration market

Written by Intertecnica | Oct 27, 2023 6:55:18 AM

Cold room door components by Intertecnica combine strength, efficiency and design, and are engineered to meet customers' specific needs, providing them with maximum freedom in the design phase. 

Products of this type, which synthesise years of research in materials, construction solutions and adjustment possibilities, deserve to be understood specifically and in depth. This is also why, starting in 2020, Intertecnica has chosen to invest in the construction of digital solutions that allow all the unique features of its components to be appreciated.

These digital tools are a true revolution in our industry. The aim is to encapsulate Intertecnica's know-how, providing users with immediate applications, animations, data sheets, documentation and all information that can be useful for realising projects, solving problems or making particular adjustments when needed. 

Tools of this type do not replace Intertecnica's traditional after-sales service, which remains available to answer any questions. Rather, they encompass a series of quick and intuitive solutions that allow all users to deepen their knowledge about Intertecnica components and their performance. 

These are the tools currently available online:

  • Intertecnica Lab: In this virtual space, you can discover the different applications and unique features of Intertecnica components, as well as download in-depth materials, data sheets and documentation related to each product. This makes it easy to discover and compare the features of each component, identifying the most suitable solution for the door type being designed. The possibilities offered by i-Lab, however, do not stop there. To allow users to learn about the components through an experience that is as close as possible to live contact, Intertecnica has created 3D animations that allow the various components to be visualised in motion, to better appreciate their different features and application possibilities.
  • iLab Configurator: This tool is designed to guide users in choosing the most suitable components for the door they are designing. To use, simply enter some basic features about the door and choose from the various potential products indicated by the configurator those that best meet your needs. Each component can be visualised in 3D. The animations give a precise idea of the final result once the project is finished. Based on the features and dimensions of the cold room, the configurator also automatically calculates the number of pressure-relief valves required and the minimum number of hinges to ensure that the door seals properly and the weight is distributed evenly. In this way, users start with the information they already have and are accompanied in identifying the most suitable construction solution for their needs. At the end of the configuration process, it is then possible to save and print the chosen solution, request data sheets for the individual components or send the relevant order to Intertecnica.
  • iLab Technic: This tool builds off of the other tools available to customers, as it not only provides information on the various Intertecnica components, but also offers real immersive and interactive animations designed to meet concrete needs, thus making users completely independent when installing and adjusting the various products. With iLab Technic, users can familiarise themselves not only with the individual components, but also with concrete application possibilities, receiving information on the time required to complete the various tasks or the minimum number of people necessary to carry them out. In addition, the possibility of first-person interaction with the animation allows for a totally immersive experience by rotating the view, zooming in and out, etc. It therefore provides an easy understanding of how to independently solve any problem related to the different products, avoiding the need to call in external technicians and saving time and money.

We are convinced that these digital tools, which rely on the enormous potential of virtual and augmented reality, will enable us to make what we offer even broader and more complete, helping us to improve our products and services.

What's more, solutions of this type help us to make a real qualitative leap in our customer relations. They enable us to become true partners capable of helping customers to develop solutions that are increasingly in line with their needs, thereby responding more precisely to their customers' needs.

These digital tools provide answers and helpful hints both to potential customers planning cold room doors and to those who have already purchased an Intertecnica product and need support with installation, adjustment or maintenance. Moreover, the tools are designed to be simple and intuitive to use. They can therefore be used by specialised personnel as well as those with less experience to find all the answers to independently handle different problems. In this way, each user has the opportunity to become familiar with Intertecnica's products, appreciate their special features and identify the precise solutions best suited to their specific needs and in relation to the type of door they own or are designing.
