Alberto Sanchis Alfonso, Manager of Metal Blinds, states that his company offers “a broad selection of products that provide automation solutions for diverse needs. These include a range of electromechanical and hydraulic motors, as well as a comprehensive electronic line.”

With over 20 years of experience in the automation industry, Metal Blinds provides solutions for all types of automation needs with its extensive selection of electromechanical and hydraulic motors, as well as a comprehensive range of electronics. "Furthermore, as a producer of automatic glass doors, we offer technological, electronic and mechanical solutions to automate pedestrian sliding and swinging glass doors of superior quality," states Alberto Sanchis.

The company's selection of gate automation operators now features the SLXDRACO2 high-speed motors designed for industrial gates weighing no more than 2,000 kg. These motors offer a maximum "variable speed of movement" of 22 m/min. While the INTPRG-3G/WF system, compatible with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth technology, enables remote control and programming of system parameters.

Security

The company offers a wide selection of “security features including sensitive strips, photocells, and the advanced CDR RED multi-channel infrared barrier which can detect obstructions at varying heights, helping to prevent collisions with doors or shutters.” In addition to the new TXQ508 two-way radio transceivers with Rolling Code and FM frequency of 868 MHz, which confirm the signal has been sent, “enabling users to determine the opening or closing status of gates without visual contact. These models are available in 2, 4 and 8 channel versions.”

The UNICO500MF is an innovative, two-way programmable radio remote control that allows the secure control of up to 100 channels using 128-bit cryptography. “With the same device you can choose frequency of 433Mhz or 868Mhz and whether it uses single or two-way operating mode (with signal confirmation). It enables you to programme opening and closing times at various times during the day, every day of the week.”

Energy saving

Metal Blinds has developed a new line of eco-friendly automated systems for pedestrian doors, which effectively minimises environmental impact. "We are launching the inaugural 'Energy Saving' operators in the market, which deliver a remarkable 54% reduction in energy consumption compared to other traditional operators. All our operators come equipped with brushless motors and no gearbox, enabling us to provide a five-year guarantee.”

On the same topic, the company is providing the latest Supercapacitor Opening Device: “A supercapacitor technology-based alternative to conventional lead-acid batteries permits automatic opening in the event of a power outage. The application of this new supercapacitor technology provides substantive environmental protection, whilst reducing maintenance expenses significantly. Supercapacitors remain functional for twenty years, in contrast to conventional lead batteries, which only last three years.”
