Types of electric shutter blades

The blade is considered the most important part of the electric shutter door. To put it simply, the body of the electric shutter consists of a blade. Blades are available in different materials and designs in the market, each of which has its own unique characteristics. In general, the electric shutter blade does not waste a lot of energy to open the door, and when the door is closed, it gives a beautiful effect to the building.

In fact, blades are categorized by gender and there are different types of them in different genders.

Most of the shutter blades produced in the market are made of aluminum. It can be said that about 90% of the Iranian market is occupied by aluminum automatic door blades. There are several reasons why manufacturers use aluminum to produce shutter blades. The reasons include the appropriate weight and lightness of aluminum compared to other materials, increasing the lifespan of the shutter door motor, resistance to hot and cold environments, having special physical and mechanical properties, as well as a reasonable price. The aluminum blade of the electric shutter is produced by extrusion (a process in which a metal or plastic piece under the influence of pressure passes through a mold with a special shape and its cross-section is reduced). Aluminum electric shutter blade is produced in different colors in the market; These colors include simple colors such as white, red and yellow, or special colors such as the color of chop, etc. Bridges are used inside the mentioned blades, which multiply the resistance and strength of the blades against the pressures.

Inin the past years, due to the use of inappropriate machines, galvanized blades were produced which made a lot of noise compared to aluminum. Today, with the advancement of technology, galvanized blades are of better quality and their noise level is much less. The strength and resistance of galvanized blades is higher than that of aluminum. The quality of galvanized blades varies depending on the quality and thickness of the sheet, the system of creating a blade-shaped section, the quality of the foam and also the type of color. There is a possibility of rusting of the mentioned blades in wet and dirty environments.

These blades are produced and marketed as single-walled unlike aluminum and galvanized double-walled blades. Their single wall is due to the high thickness of the sheet used in this type of blades, which ultimately creates a very high strength and resistance for the electric shutter door. One of the most prominent advantages of electric shutter steel blade is their anti-theft properties.

Roll Gator blades have significant strength due to having steel rod sections. The mesh of the section used makes it possible to see into the interior, which is very efficient for shops that want to be able to see the window while it is closed. Roll gator blades are very heavy and require a strong motor for proper use. High safety, light transmission and visibility are among the unique features of the mentioned blades.

ay These types of blades are made of polycarbonate, which have high quality and beautiful appearance. Transparent polycarbonate blades show high resistance to impact, pressure, cutting and heat. These blades are produced in such a way that they are bulletproof; Therefore, the mentioned blades are mostly used in important commercial and government buildings. Because these blades do not change color when exposed to sunlight, "anti-UV" (UV) materials are used inside them so that the color of the blades does not fade over time.

Introducing the best electric shutter blade brand to the customer is of great importance, because by choosing the wrong blades for the electric shutter door, the security of the building or shop will be compromised. To buy and choose the best electric shutter blade, you must pay attention to certain parameters. These parameters are categorized as follows: Electrostatic paint: Electrostatic paint consists of resin and dry particles that are spread on the blade with the desired paint mixture. After the coloring process, the blade is placed in the oven to be strong and resistant to weather changes. Blade weight: The blade weight always plays a significant role in raising the quality level of electric shutter door performance. The best electric shutter blade is a model that does not weigh much. Polycarbonate material: According to many experts, the best types of electric shutter blades are polycarbonate blades. These blades, which are sometimes known as glass blades, have outstanding features such as being anti-theft, fireproof and bulletproof. Company brand: A company that manufactures automatic shutter door blades can encourage the customer to buy the product. Motor: Electric shutter motor is one of the most influential parts in determining the type of blade. The motors that are mostly sold in the Iranian market are tubular and side motors. Motorside is known as the most powerful automatic shutter door motors that make the least possible noise when opening and closing the door. This engine is mostly used for industrial centers and factories. The tubular motor has a smaller size and volume than the side motor and is mostly used for automatic roller shutter doors in commercial, residential, and parking lots. Resistance: Undoubtedly, the best brand of shutter blade should have high strength and resistance against various conditions such as impact, acid rain, storm and even gunshots. Washable: Electric shutter blades absorb a lot of dust over time. The customer should buy a brand that has the possibility to wash the blades. Fireproof: As we mentioned above, glass blades (polycarbonate) have fireproof properties. These blades can withstand temperatures up to 300 degrees and do not melt due to the increase in temperature. This issue leads to increase the safety and strength of the blade and prevent the fire from entering the building. Anti-theft: The best brand of automatic shutter blade is a brand that pays attention to the anti-theft feature. Usually, blades with high anti-theft properties are mostly used for environments such as gold shops, banks, exchange offices, etc. It is suggested to install a small smart lock on the left and right ends of the blades to increase the anti-theft effect.
