Introduction
Automation is no longer a luxury in the modern era of smart home, rather it has become a lifestyle choice. Having voice-controlled lights, automatized window coverings, and other convenience, efficiency, and style elements, people in India are enjoying convenience, efficiency, and style as never before.
Although the use of blinds are becoming popular, there is an unsung hero to the smooth flow of the window covers and that is the tubular motor. The tubular motor is compact, powerful, and whisper-quiet in nature, and contributes to the smooth movement of roller blinds and shades.
By reading this blog you will have a clue of what a tubular motor is and how it operates, the advantages of it and why Terra Curtains is known to be one of the reliable suppliers of high-end tubular motors particularly those to be used in motorized blinds and rollers systems.
What is a Tubular Motor?
A tubular motor is a small electric motor that is made in the form of a cylinder to be installed in the roller blinds tube, roller shades, or projection screens.
As the name implies, it is shaped like a tube, so it can roll the roller shaft in the same direction - roll or unroll the blind fabric with the highest accuracy.
Tubular motors work efficiently, silently, and smoothly unlike the large traditional motors and are thus preferable to both residential and commercial automation systems.
How Does a Tubular Motor Work?
The process is achieved in the following way:
The roller tube of the blind has a motor fitted.
It is operated to rotate the shaft with a view to either lifting or lowering the fabric.
An inbuilt controller controls speed, direction, limit positions etc.
The majority of the existing tube motors can be operated either remotely or using the apps to guarantee even greater convenience.
The most common use of tubular motors is in roller blinds, zebra blinds, projection screens - no longer in curtain tracks - since the circular motion of the motor is more useful to a rolling motion than a sliding motion.
Tubular Motors working on Smart Blinds.
A simple blind can be made an intelligent and motorized blind treatment with the addition of a motor in the form of a tube.
Zipcar will allow you to press a button to open up or close your blinds or even a voice command when you operate it with a remote control or a smart home hub.
It would imply having the capability to automatically have natural light shining through your screen in the morning, or being able to close your blinds by saying Hey Google.
Such is what the convenience of automation of tubular motors provides.
