課題
Schaeffler needed a compact and reliable door solution for its AGV transportation area.
The original Hörmann doors were too high, occupying excessive installation space and affecting the automation layout.
SEPPESのソリューション
SEPPES provided protective high speed doors (W1600 × H1600 mm) to replace the original doors.
The compact design saves installation space and supports AGV signal control for automatic opening and closing, ensuring smooth vehicle passage and safe area separation.
結果

AGV high speed coiling door FAQ
1. ドアは閉鎖時にコンベヤベルトを押し付けますか？
SEPPES高速自動車用ドアは、コンベヤ、材料、吊り下げ物品を考慮して設計されています。当社は2つのソリューションを提供します：
- ソリューション1： Install light curtains or photoelectric sensors on both sides of the frame. The door will not close if the belt or materials haven’t fully passed, preventing collisions.
- Solution 2: For fixed conveyor positions, we can customize a bottom groove or split sealing strip on the curtain to avoid the belt while maintaining sealing elsewhere.
Our engineers will measure on-site and confirm installation drawings to ensure the belt is never damaged.
2. The door opens and closes hundreds of times per day. How long will the motor last?
SEPPES as industrial doors manufacturers use German servo motors rated for 800–1000 cycles per day and continuous operation over 10 years (actual lifespan depends on environment; project references available).
If a motor fails, it’s recommended that local service teams handle replacement for safety and parameter matching. Alternatively, if your site has an electrical engineer, we provide a spare motor and step-by-step replacement guide.
3. Can the door detect if there is a load on the conveyor and stay open while products pass?
Yes. SEPPES doors can integrate with your conveyor control system:
- Simple version: Sensors at the conveyor entrance keep the door open while products pass; the door closes after a set idle time (adjustable, e.g., 5–10s).
- Advanced version: Direct PLC or MES integration to track conveyor activity and automate “door moves with line, closes when line stops.”
We have implemented this for automotive parts and e-commerce logistics centers and can provide reference videos.
4. What happens if the curtain is hit? Do I need to replace the whole door?
Our soft-fast doors feature a self-resetting collision design:
- Minor collisions: Curtain pops out of the track; simply reinsert manually in one minute.
- Severe damage: Only the curtain needs replacement; the motor, track, and control box remain intact. Replacement is typically 2–3 days, costing far less than a full door (usually 15–20% of full price).
Flexible crash columns and guide rollers absorb most impact, minimizing damage risk.
5. Does the door leak air in air-conditioned or heated workshops?
SEPPES industrial roller door use a four-side multi-layer sealing system:
- Top & sides: EPDM rubber seals, elastic and aging-resistant.
- Bottom: Safety airbag bottom edge, adapts to ±5mm uneven floors.
- Door panel: 40mm high-density polyurethane core (λ = 0.022 W/(m·K)).
Tests show over 85% reduction in airflow with a 20°C temperature difference and 5 m/s wind. For cleanrooms, we can provide ISO 14644 air-tightness reports.
6. What if the door suddenly won’t close? Can the production line continue?
Multiple emergency mechanisms prevent line stoppage:
- Manual release: Hand chain or crank lifts the curtain if power fails.
- Emergency button: Forces door open regardless of sensor logic.
- Fault self-diagnosis: Display shows error codes for on-site reset (e.g., blocked sensors, lost limit switch).
7. Can your doors interface with our existing central control system?
Yes. Standard dry contact (passive) signals are compatible with most PLCs, including Siemens, Mitsubishi, Omron, Rockwell, Delta, Inovance, etc.
- Switch signals: Open/close commands with door position feedback.
- Communication protocols: Modbus RTU/TCP for operation data and fault codes; can integrate with SCADA or MES.
