SYSTEM COMPONENTS:
“Diomede” system is made of the following components:
- extruded profile, “CV1m” in aluminium alloy, EN
6060 T5 (or similar, when needed);
- extruded profile, “CD1” in aluminium alloy, EN 6060
T5;
- tile retaining hooks, “CD1g” or “CD2g”,obatained
from extruded aluminium alloy, EN 6060 T5;
- horizontal rail retaining hooks, “CD4c” in stainless
steel EN 1.4310 (AISI 301);
- retaining springs , type “V7”, in stainless steel
EN 1.4310 (AISI 301);
- standard fixing brackets, simple bracket “A12” and
double bracket “B12” obtained from extruded
aluminium alloy, EN 6060 T5;
- nuts and bolts in stainless steel, class A2;
- anchor bars, mechanical or epoxy-resin based, when needed;
- tile fixing device, placed on the backside of the tile, in the
appropriately made holes, in stainless
steel, class A2;
- insulation springs in tempered stainless steel, to support insulating
panels, when needed.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION:
This system is based on the aluminium sub-frame made out of vertical
rails “CV1m”, placed on design
pace and horizontal rails “CD1”, placed on design pace,
which depend on the dimensions of the tiles.
The “CV1m” profile is designed and shaped in order to
fit without drillings the following components:
- standard fixing brackets, simple bracket “A12”
and double bracket “B12”, placed on design pace;
- two hooks “CD4c” and two retaining springs “V7”,
in order to fix and retain horizontal rail “CD1”;
- insulation springs, when needed or requested.
The “CD1” profile is designed and shaped
in order to fit without drillings the “CD1g” hook designed
to retain the cladding tiles.
Total absence of the holes on vertical and horizontal rails protects
coating (oxidation or painting) from corrosion and assure to the
structure a longer lifetime.
The main characteristic of “Diomede” system is that
entire tile anchoring and supporting mechanism is hidden and not
visible. This is assured using appropriate number of anchoring devices
placed on the backside of the tile. The number of devices can vary
and depend on the real dimensions of cladding tiles and effective
design loads.
On the backside of each tile small holes are made; in these holes
is placed mechanical insert-screw, able to resist to the pull-out
loads, and it allow the anchoring of the “CD1g” or “CD2g”
hooks. In this way these hooks are solidly united with the tile
and the tile can be placed and hooked-on to the horizontal rail
profile “CD1”.
When the supporting sub-frame is placed and assembled, the mounting
of cladding tiles should be started from the bottom of the façade
and proceeded towards the top of the façade. This is requested
in order to allow the correct placing of the tile that should be
lifted approximately of 2,5 cm and placed down on the horizontal
rails.
The supporting sub-frame allow any type of horizontal and vertical
regulations and the thermal
expansion off all components.

SYSTEM SIZE AND DIMENSIONS:
- The standard distance between the wall and the internal face
of the tile is 140 mm, with a standard
regulation of ± 25 mm.
- The standard thickness of the tiles for this system should be
approximately 10 ÷ 20 mm.
