As a commonly used equipment in the fields of industrial production and logistics. The performance of sectional doors directly affects production efficiency and safety. As one of the core components of the sectional door, the sectional door torsion spring has an important impact on the opening and closing of the door, as well as the smoothness and reliability of its operation. Therefore, it is of great significance to deeply explore the impact of sectional door torsion springs on door performance.
Types of sectional door torsion springs
Tension spring: Tension spring is a common type of lift door torsion spring, usually installed on the torsion spring shaft above the lift door. It stores energy by stretching and releases the energy when the door is opened, helping the door lift.
Torsion Spring: Torsion springs are another common type of lift door torsion spring and are usually installed on the side of the lift door. It stores energy by twisting it and releases it when the door is opened, helping the door lift.
Sectional door torsion spring material
Spring steel: Spring steel is a material commonly used to make torsion springs and tension springs. It has excellent elasticity and fatigue resistance, which can ensure that the torsion spring is not easy to deform or break during long-term use. The torsion spring of the SEPPES sectional door is also made of high-quality solid steel. The surface has been treated with anti-corrosion and anti-rust treatment. It can be used 30,000 times and can be customized up to 5/100,000 times.
Stainless steel: Stainless steel is a corrosion-resistant material. That is often used to manufacture sectional door torsion springs with high requirements. That can ensure long-term stable operation of door torsion springs in humid or corrosive environments.
Sectional door torsion spring tension
Tension adjustment: The tension of the lift door torsion spring directly affects. The opening and closing speed and stability of the door. Properly adjusting the tension of the torsion spring can ensure stable and smooth operation of the door.
Tension balance: During the installation and maintenance of the lift door. The tension balance of the torsion spring must be ensured to avoid door instability and operational failure caused by uneven tension.
The impact of sectional door torsion springs on door performance
Opening speed: The tension and type of the sectional door torsion spring directly affect the door opening speed. The greater the tension and the more appropriate torsion spring type, the faster the door will open.
Smoothness: Properly adjusting the tension and type of the torsion spring can ensure a smooth opening and closing process of the door and avoid shaking or jamming caused by uneven tension or inappropriate type. (The pulleys, rails and hinges of the lift door are also important components of the balance system. Several components cooperate with each other to build the lift door balance system)
Reliability: Choosing torsion springs with good quality and appropriate tension, and ensuring balanced tension, can improve the reliability and service life of the door, and reduce maintenance costs and failure rates.
Sectional door torsion spring is an important part of the lift door. Its type, material and tension have an important impact on the performance of the door. Reasonable selection and adjustment of torsion springs can improve the door’s opening speed, smoothness and reliability, thereby ensuring the safe operation and long-term stable use of the door. When designing, installing and maintaining lift doors. Full consideration needs to be given to the selection and adjustment of lift door torsion springs to improve the overall performance and efficiency of the door.
