Formfold® Divider Curtain
With modern facility designs, Formfold® has become a go‑to for function and aesthetics. It is engineered to conform tightly regardless of roof shape or size and offers versatile options to meet demanding dividing needs. With potential drive speeds of approximately 6–18 m/min (20–60 ft/min), operators can transition quickly between activities. A variable‑speed cable‑lift allows each cable to operate at different speeds for variable heights, and flexible supports with dynamic ballast allow the curtain to transform while operating to Curve, slope, and stretch to match the roof shape in both raised and lowered positions—reducing the need for heavy additional structure and keeping sightlines and lighting clear. Construction options include two vinyl weights with optional Sports Netting or Flexmesh, and an optional double‑layer vinyl at field level that encloses lift cables for added safety and impact resistance.
Challenge
Adapt to complex roof geometries while keeping changeovers fast and installation simple.
Solution
A variable‑height cable‑lift lets each lift line run at different speeds so the curtain tracks slopes, peaks, and curves for a tight architectural fit. With flexible supports, a dynamic ballast system, and our patented mobile-pulley design, this innovation sets a new standard for performance and durability — making it the most advanced premier solution on the market. Optional double-layer vinyl at field level encloses lift cables for a cleaner, safer activity zone.
Product Specs
The Curtain
Designed to adapt to virtually any roof geometry—slope, flat, peak, butterfly, arch, catenary, or combinations—the Formfold presents a tight, finished appearance.
The Hardware
Flexible supports and dynamic ballast allow the curtain to curve, slope, and stretch to match the roof shape in both lowered and raised positions. This reduces the need for heavy additional structure and maintains a streamlined profile that does not interfere with spectator sightlines or the facility lighting. The integrated helical reducer within the winch system ensures superior torque control and operational safety — delivering high load capacity while providing a smooth, controlled descent in the rare event of back-winding.
The Operation
The system incorporates a cable‑lift that allows each cable to operate at different speeds, providing variable heights across the width. High‑speed operation—approximately 6–18 m/min (20–60 ft/min)—helps reduce transition time between activities.
