Automatic Barriers

Automatic barriers are the ideal solution for managing and controlling vehicular access in a wide range of settings. From condominium areas to corporate entrances, from industrial zones to highway gates, and public and private parking lots, our barriers are designed to provide you with maximum security and reliability.

With FAAC's automatic barriers, you can effectively regulate the flow of vehicles, preventing unauthorized access to your spaces and ensuring that only those with permits can park in your parking areas.

Technology

Hydraulics, Electromechanics and Hybrid

These are the three technologies that distinguish FAAC's automatic barriers today.

Each is designed to meet specific needs to give you maximum flexibility.

AC Motors

FAAC was born with hydraulics, employing alternating current (230Vac) motors. In this case, the passage of current creates a rotating magnetic field inside the stator that turns the shaft and rotor.

In single-phase systems, a capacitor is inserted between the two stator coils. These motors have built-in thermal protection, which cuts off the power supply in the event of an overload to ensure maximum safety.

Despite technological advances and the introduction of DC motors, AC motors are still widely used today because of their established reliability and performance.

DC motors

DC motors consist of a rotor powered through a brush collector and a stator that generates a fixed magnetic field.

Although they do not have physical thermal protection on the motor, our devices are equipped with electronic thermal protection that ensures safe and reliable operation.

By adjusting the supply voltage and current intensity, both the speed and torque of the motor can be precisely modified.

DC motors offer many advantages: precise control of force and speed, very smooth acceleration and deceleration ramps, high efficiency, and battery backup in case of power failure.

FAAC Automatic Barriers DC Brushless Motors

Brushless DC Motors

Brushless ("brushless") motors represent the evolution of technology in automation systems.

Compared to traditional brush motors, these DC electric motors do not require electrical contacts creeping on the rotor shaft to operate. It is the electronic board that handles this function.

In addition, brushless DC motors produce less heat, are perfect for intensive use, and have more compact dimensions for the same performance.
