Motors with Obstecle Detection Feature
Smart and Safe: Garage Doors Get a Boost with Obstacle Detection Motors
How it Works
These motors utilize sensors, typically ultrasonic or infrared, to detect objects in the path of the closing door. When an obstacle is identified, the motor automatically reverses the door's direction, preventing potential damage and injury.
Benefits of Obstacle Detection
There are several advantages to having a garage door motor with obstacle detection:
1- Enhanced Safety: This feature is particularly beneficial for homes with children or pets who might be in the garage's path. It also prevents accidental damage to bikes, toys, or other belongings left near the door.
2- Peace of Mind: Knowing your garage door won't slam shut on something unexpected provides a sense of security and reduces the worry of potential mishaps.
3- Convenience: No more stopping the automatic closing cycle halfway to retrieve a forgotten item. The obstacle detection ensures the door reverses safely, allowing you to retrieve what you need.
With obstacle detection motors, your garage door becomes not just a convenient entry point, but also a guardian of safety and peace of mind.
E01 The Intelligent Roller Shutter Drive for Complete Peace of Mind
Imagine the convenience of automatic roller shutters - but what happens if something unexpected gets in the way? Becker's innovative E01 drive tackles these concerns, offering a truly intelligent solution for your home.
Unparalleled Obstacle Detection:
Enjoy the ultimate peace of mind with the E01's sensitive obstacle detection. If a garden chair, toy, or any other object blocks the path, the drive automatically stops, reverses, and gently moves away, preventing damage.
Winter Ready:
Never worry about frozen shutters again. The E01 features an ingenious anti-freeze mechanism that detects potential freezing and shuts off the drive before any breakage occurs. This protects your roller shutter and ensures smooth operation even during harsh winters.
Adapts to Changing Conditions:
The E01 intelligently adapts to fluctuations in the roller shutter's length caused by sun exposure or heat. It regularly references its upper stop position and adjusts accordingly, ensuring proper closure without unnecessary noise.
E01 Advantages:
Sensitive Obstacle Detection (Downward): Protects your roller shutter and anything in its path.
Blockage Detection & Shut-Off: Prevents damage caused by frozen shutters or unexpected obstacles.
Soft Upper Stop: Ensures gentle closure for optimal protection.
Upper Anti-Freeze Mechanism: Stops the drive before reaching the upper limit and automatically corrects for any changes in length.
Dynamic Torque Adjustment: The drive automatically adjusts power based on the specific shutter weight and movement.
Fly Screen Protection: Detects open insect screens and prevents system damage.
Becker's E01 drive goes beyond automation, offering unmatched intelligence and protection for your roller shutters. Experience the difference and enjoy ultimate peace of mind in your smart home.
Ultrasonic sensors, infrared sensors, LIDAR, and camera-based systems are the most common technologies used for obstacle detection.
Yes, with the right sensors and integration, obstacle detection can be retrofitted to existing motors.
Obstacle detection prevents collisions and accidents by allowing systems to identify and avoid obstacles in real-time.
Industries such as robotics, warehousing, manufacturing, and consumer electronics benefit significantly from these motors.
