Common Applications of Gear Motors in Greenhouses
1. Ventilation Control
- Opening and closing roof and side vents to regulate temperature and humidity
- Preventing heat buildup and ensuring proper airflow for plant health
2. Shade and Thermal Screens
- Adjusting the amount of sunlight entering the greenhouse
- Maintaining internal temperature during cold nights and reducing energy loss
3. Mobile Irrigation Systems
- Enabling automated movement of irrigation booms in large-scale greenhouses
4. Vertical and Movable Cultivation Systems
- Controlling the movement of planting trays in advanced greenhouse setups
Key Features of Greenhouse Gear Motors
- Suitable output torque based on the length and weight of the moving structure (typically between 60 to 150 Nm)
- Worm gear or industrial gearbox with smooth and silent operation
- High resistance to humidity, dust, and corrosion
- Equipped with an automatic stop sensor when reaching the end of travel
- Compatible with smart climate control systems (greenhouse automation)
