An Australian home automation installer specializing in high-end residential outdoor living spaces sought a reliable, elegant motorization solution for retractable awnings. Their target customers expected not only convenience and durability, but also advanced smart features and aesthetic design to match modern architecture.
The project involved multiple installation sites across coastal areas in New South Wales and Queensland, where high sunlight exposure, sudden winds, and varying power standards posed challenges for product integration.
1.Multi-size compatibility: The awning structures varied in width and arm length, requiring motors that could adapt to different shaft diameters and torque demands.
2.Weather resistance: Strong UV exposure and changing weather demanded high-reliability motors with IP-rated enclosures.
3.Smart home integration: End users expected voice control, app-based scheduling, and seamless pairing with existing smart home ecosystems.
4.Aesthetic constraints: Visible hardware had to maintain minimal visual impact, requiring compact and discreet motor housing.
5.Power flexibility: The client needed motors that could work with both AC and DC systems, depending on project type.
To meet these requirements, BG Motor provided a custom-configurable tubular motor series, designed specifically for smart shading applications:
Torque Range: 7 N·m – 50 N·m.Suitable for lightweight fabric awnings to heavy-duty terrace covers.
Speed Options: 10–35 rpm.Ensures smooth and quiet extension and retraction.
Multiple Shaft Sizes: Available in various internal diameters to match different roller tube profiles.
Voltage Compatibility: Supports 110V / 220V AC and 24V DC input for flexible installation environments.
Integrated Manual Override: In case of power failure, awnings can still be operated manually.
Built-in Receiver Options: Supports multiple models with integrated RF/IR receivers for remote and wall switch compatibility.
Smart Control & Safety:
Voice Control Ready: Fully compatible with Alexa, Google Assistant, and Tuya platforms.
Scheduling and Timer Modes: Allows for automatic opening/closing based on time or sunlight conditions.
Wind and Light Sensor Compatibility: Automatically retracts awnings during strong wind to protect the fabric and mechanism.
Quiet Operation: ≤ 45 dB sound level ensures comfortable use in residential areas.
IP44 Protection: Waterproof and dust-resistant, ideal for outdoor use.
