Selecting the correct tubular motor is not only about power-it is about matching the motor to the real working conditions.

 

Key Selection Parameters

 

Curtain or Shutter Weight

Tube Diameter (38mm / 40mm / 60mm / 70mm)

Required Torque (Nm)

Operating Voltage (AC or DC)

Control Method (Switch / Remote / Smart System)

 

Common Selection Mistakes

Choosing torque based on tube size only

Ignoring friction from side rails

Overlooking duty cycle limitations

A properly selected tubular motor improves reliability, reduces noise, and extends service life.
