Roller shutter openers span a wide torque spectrum: from compact tubular motors inside the shutter barrel (light-duty units start around 6 Nm — the class of Somfy’s Sonesse 40 RTS at 6 Nm / 20 rpm [SOURCED: product listing]) up to heavy 92 mm-class industrial shutter motors at several hundred Nm [ESTIMATE — industry convention]. Dedicated rolling-door motor factories cover the full AC / DC / fire-roller range — a structure mirrored by specialists such as Jielong, operating since 1988 with 150,000 units/year capacity [SOURCED: jielongmotor.com].
RAX manufactures roller shutter openers on an in-house servo motor assembly line, matched to the shutter curtains, tracks and springs we build in the same 11,000 m² factory. Choose side-mounted chain operators for heavy industrial shutters or tubular motors for compact barrel installation; fire-rated variants are available for fire-roller applications (RAX supports fire ratings EI60/EI120 on its fire door range). Every unit is validated in our 100,000-cycle fatigue test lab and covered by CE conformity to EN 13241 / EN 12453, with a 3-year operator warranty (servo 5 years). Pure manufacturer, no on-site installation — wiring diagrams and English manuals ship with every order; from prototype to container-load, full flexibility on order quantity.
Full rolling-shutter motor range: AC and DC drive versions plus fire-rated configurations for fire-roller shutter applications.
Motor torque sized to curtain weight, barrel diameter and duty — from light shopfront shutters to heavy industrial doors.
ISO 9001:2015, CE to EN 13241 / EN 12453, SGS material reports; brake-safety devices and limit systems included per configuration.
RF remote, WiFi / RS485 remote options; manual override / chain hoist fallback for power-loss situations.
| Product | Roller Shutter Opener (side-mounted operator or tubular motor, per configuration) |
| Torque range | Sized per shutter: light tubular class starts ~6 Nm [SOURCED: Somfy Sonesse 40 RTS 6 Nm/20 rpm]; heavy industrial 92 mm-class barrel motors run to several hundred Nm [ESTIMATE]. RAX confirms torque per curtain weight. |
| Motor type / voltage | AC and DC rolling-door motor variants; 230 V AC supply typical for industrial side operators [ESTIMATE]; limit setting mechanical (standard) or electronic on premium builds [ESTIMATE]. |
| Tube / barrel compatibility | Tube diameters from 35/45 mm (light–medium) to 59/92 mm (heavy industrial) [ESTIMATE — industry convention]; confirmed against your shutter barrel. |
| Duty cycle | Intermittent shopfront duty up to intensive industrial cycling; cycles/hour and thermal class confirmed per model [ESTIMATE]. |
| Control & connectivity | RF remote; WiFi / RS485 remote options; integration with radar / geomagnetic / light-curtain sensing; fire-rated variants link to alarm signalling [ESTIMATE — niche practice]. |
| Safety | Brake-safety / anti-drop devices, obstacle detection on select models; forces within the EN 12453 framework; protective devices to EN 12978 practice. |
| Materials / build | Galvanized steel and aluminum alloy 6063-T5 construction; full RAL custom color to match the shutter curtain. |
| Certification | CE: EN 13241 + EN 12453. IP rating typically IP44 indoor / IP65 exposed [ESTIMATE — verify per model]. |
| Warranty / service | Operator/motor 3 years, servo motor 5 years; free spare parts within warranty via DHL/FedEx (5–7 days). |
| Order | Custom engineered to your exact opening, specification and RAL color |
Figures marked [ESTIMATE] are industry-typical conventions, not RAX test data; model-level torque/voltage datasheets are confirmed per inquiry. RAX figures are from the approved brand brief.
Curtain type and weight, opening width × height, barrel diameter — the basis for torque selection and technical drawing confirmation.
Side-mounted chain operator (heavy doors, serviceable) vs tubular motor inside the barrel (compact, clean look).
Cycles/day, temperature range (RAX products tested −30 °C to +50 °C), coastal/corrosive exposure, fire-rating requirement.
RF remotes, WiFi / RS485, manual override requirement, alarm linkage for fire variants, safety edges and photocells.
RAX supports full private-label production of the Roller Shutter Opener: custom colors, branding, packaging printing and installation-manual translation (EN/ES/FR/AR/RU). Start with an OEM sample and scale to container-load branded production. Custom molds, Tooling records are archived for up to 5 years — no extra tooling fee on repeat orders, all under strict NDA (27-year zero-leak record). Lead time: sample 7–15 days, standard container 12–20 days; FOB Tianjin / Qingdao, FCL & LCL.
Product standard for industrial, commercial and garage doors and gates — includes vertical-moving retail doors such as roller shutters; basis for CE marking.
Safety in use of power-operated doors — force limits and test methods for powered shutter operation.
Protective safety devices — design and testing of edges, contact strips and detection systems used with powered shutters.
Mechanical aspects — requirements and test methods referenced by EN 13241 for the shutter assembly the operator drives.
Torque is sized to curtain weight and barrel diameter: light tubular motors start around 6 Nm (e.g. Somfy Sonesse 40 RTS at 6 Nm/20 rpm [SOURCED: product listing]), while heavy 92 mm-class industrial barrel motors reach several hundred Nm [ESTIMATE]. Send us curtain weight and barrel size and we confirm the exact torque class.
