Sliding gate operator main control board – Key Automation
The main control board for a Key Automation sliding gate operator, like the SUN7224 or SUN11024, is the central processing unit that manages the gate's movement, safety features, and other functionalities.
It receives signals from remote controls, keypads, or sensors, and then directs the motor to open or close the gate accordingly.
Here's a more detailed explanation:
-
Core Function:The control board acts as the "brain" of the gate system, interpreting signals and controlling the motor.
-
Input:It receives signals from various input devices, such as remote controls, keypads, or safety sensors.
-
Output:It sends commands to the motor to start, stop, reverse, or adjust its speed based on the input received.
-
Safety Features:Many control boards include safety features like obstacle detection, which can automatically stop or reverse the gate if it encounters an obstruction.
-
Programming and Diagnostics:Some control boards offer programming capabilities and diagnostic displays to simplify setup and troubleshooting.
-
D-Track Technology:Some Key Automation models, like the Deimos, utilize D-Track technology for precise torque management and impact detection.
-
Power Supply:Control boards typically operate on a specific voltage (e.g., 24V DC or 110V AC).

Sliding gate operator gear rack -SLGR2

Sliding gate operator gear rack -SLGR2
The Sliding Gate Operator Gear Rack SLGR2 is a specific type of toothed bar used in conjunction with a sliding gate operator (motor) to convert its rotational power into the linear motion needed to open and close a sliding gate. Let's break down what SLGR2 likely refers to and its characteristics: Function of a Gear Rack:- Linear Motion: The Sliding Gate Operator Gear Rack SLGR2 is essentially a straight "rack" of teeth that meshes with a small circular gear called a pinion, which is attached to the shaft of the sliding gate operator's motor.
- Power Transmission: As the pinion spins, its teeth engage with the teeth of the gear rack, pushing or pulling the gate horizontally along its track. This is how the motor physically moves the gate.
- Length: The Sliding Gate Operator Gear Rack SLGR2 is specified as being 340 mm (millimetres) in length. This is a relatively short segment. Sliding gates often require multiple sections of gear rack to be joined together to span the entire length of the gate, as most gates are much longer than 340mm.
- Mounting Holes: It has "2 Holes". These holes are pre-drilled for easy attachment to the bottom frame of the sliding gate using screws or bolts.
- Material: While the exact material for this specific SLGR2 is not explicitly stated in all listings, gear racks are commonly made from:
- Steel (most common): Offers high strength, durability, and resistance to wear, making it suitable for heavy gates and high-traffic applications. Often galvanized or treated for corrosion resistance.
- Nylon with a Steel Core: A popular alternative. The nylon exterior provides quieter operation and good corrosion resistance, while the internal steel core offers the necessary strength and stability for the gate's weight and movement. This is a good balance of properties.
- Less commonly, other plastics or stainless steel are used for specific applications.
- "Module": While not explicitly stated for SLGR2, gear racks (and their mating pinions) adhere to a "module" standard (e.g., Module 2, Module 4). The module defines the size of the teeth and the spacing between them, ensuring that the gear rack properly meshes with the pinion gear of the specific sliding gate operator it's intended for. The SLGR2 would have a specific module that matches the operators sold by Royal Gate.

You will receive a quotation with the shipping costs within a maximum of one business day. A sliding gate V-track is a specific type of ground track that a sliding gate rolls on, utilizing wheels with a complementary V-shaped groove. This system is one of the most common ways to implement a sliding driveway gate, especially for residential and light commercial applications. Here's a breakdown: Purpose: The sliding gate V-track as the linear guide and support for the entire sliding gate. It ensures that the gate moves in a straight line, smoothly, and without wobbling or derailing as it opens and closes. It's an integral part of a "rolling gate" system, where the gate literally rolls on the ground. Key Characteristics and Components:- V-Shape Profile: The most defining feature. The track has an inverted V-shape or a 90-degree angle (like an angle iron) with a slightly rounded top. This V-shape mates perfectly with the V-groove wheels attached to the bottom of the gate.
- Materials:
- Galvanized Steel (Most Common): Highly durable, strong, and resistant to corrosion due to the galvanization process. It can handle heavy gates and high traffic volumes. Sections are typically joined together to form the required length.
- Aluminum: Lighter weight and excellent corrosion resistance. Often used for lighter gates or in environments where rust is a major concern (like coastal areas).
- Installation:
- Bolt-Down: The V-track is typically designed to be bolted securely to a concrete driveway or foundation. It has pre-drilled holes for anchor bolts. This allows for easier installation on existing concrete and simpler replacement if a section gets damaged.
- Embeddable (Less Common for DIY): Some V-tracks are designed to be embedded directly into wet concrete during construction.
- Level and Straight: Crucially, the V-track must be installed perfectly level and straight along the entire travel path of the gate to ensure smooth and consistent operation. Any dips, humps, or curves will cause issues with the gate's movement and can put undue strain on the gate operator and wheels.
- Lengths: Sliding gate V-tracks are sold in sections (e.g., 6 feet, 10 feet, 2.4 meters, 3 meters). Multiple sections are joined together using connection pins or by welding to achieve the total required length, which should be at least twice the width of the gate opening to allow the gate to fully retract.
- Complementary Hardware:
- V-Groove Wheels: These are essential and roll directly on top of the V-track. As discussed previously, they have a V-shaped groove that fits snugly into the track.
- Guide Rollers/Posts: Used at the top of the gate to keep it upright and prevent tipping.
- Gate Stops: Installed at the ends of the track to prevent the gate from over-traveling.
- Stability: The sliding gate V-track V-groove design provides excellent lateral stability, keeping the gate aligned and preventing it from wobbling.
- Load Capacity: Due to the direct ground support and robust V-track/wheel combination, these systems can handle very heavy and long gates.
- Simple Mechanical Principle: The system is straightforward, making it reliable.
- Debris Accumulation: The main drawback is that the V-track, being on the ground, is susceptible to collecting dirt, leaves, gravel, snow, and ice. This debris can obstruct the gate's movement, cause wear on the wheels, and may even lead to derailment or damage to the gate opener. Regular cleaning of the track is essential, especially during winter months in Canada.
- Driveway Disruption: Installing a sliding gate V-track requires modifying the driveway surface, often by bolting it down or embedding it in concrete, which creates a slight raised profile.
- Water Drainage: Proper drainage around the track is important to prevent water pooling.
