What is the Uniflow Sheet Shutter?
The Uniflow Sheet Shutter is a type of high-speed automatic roll-up door manufactured using advanced Japanese technology. Unlike conventional metal rolling doors, this door utilizes a special lightweight sheet material such as polyester yarn encapsulated vinyl. This product line includes the JETTER series for compact, pipe-less requirements, and the SMOOTHER series designed for high wind resistance and explosion-proof protection.
To completely equip your factory’s logistics ecosystem, this Sheet Shutter line—specifically designed for heavy equipment—can be seamlessly combined with the Uniflow sliding door and industrial swing door, which are highly ideal for pedestrian and light trolley traffic areas.
Core Specifications and Capabilities
To ensure the logistics efficiency and safety of your facility, here are the factual features of the Uniflow Sheet Shutter:
| Key Specifications | Factual Descriptions & Metrics |
|---|---|
| Maximum Operational Speed | The opening speed (ascent velocity) reaches up to 1.4 m/s (more than 20 times the speed of a standard steel shutter). This drastically minimizes waiting times for logistics fleets such as forklifts. |
| Hygiene Control (Airtightness) | Features superior airtight performance equivalent to the JIS A-3 Class standard. This feature effectively prevents air pressure leakage and maintains internal room temperature. |
| Advanced Insect Protection | Offers an orange sheet option capable of cutting off light wavelengths in the 350nm range, proven to be highly effective in preventing the entry of flying insects such as flies. |
| Dual Safety Sensor System | Equipped with a Reverse Ascending feature: If the door sheet touches an object or person while descending, it will automatically reverse and ascend to prevent injuries. It also includes an Automatic Sheet Recovery feature that automatically returns the sheet to its tracks if derailed. |
| Explosion-Proof Certification (Zone 2) | The specialized RA-2Es series is designed to comply with d2G4 explosion-proof regulations, making it suitable for hazardous environments up to Zone 2. It features an instant static electricity discharge system and an anti-static, non-combustible sheet. |
| Water Sanitation (HACCP) | A specialized water draining specification is available, reducing water drips from the bottom of the door sheet by up to 90% (cut to 1/10). This is highly ideal for food factory areas that require frequent washdowns. |
Industrial Applications (Use Cases)
The implementation of the Uniflow Sheet Shutter meets compliance criteria for various strictly regulated industrial environments, including:
- Food & Beverage Factories: Utilizing a combination of water draining features and insect-resistant orange sheets to ensure HACCP sanitation compliance.
- Chemical & High-Risk Facilities: Deploying the RA-2Es model with an explosion-proof motor and fire-resistant sheet material to prevent static sparks in Zone 2 areas.
- Distribution Centers (Logistics Warehouses): Facilitating heavy equipment traffic with robust wind pressure resistance (up to 33.5 m/s) in the large-scale RX series models.
- Cleanrooms: Utilizing the Interlock function to ensure two connected doors do not open simultaneously, maintaining air pressure stability and preventing cross-contamination.

The primary difference lies in the material and operational speed. The Uniflow Sheet Shutter does not use heavy metals; instead, it uses a high-strength polymer sheet that allows for opening speeds of up to 1.4 m/s. This design makes its operation extremely quiet and minimizes the risk of contact injuries.
Both the JETTER and SMOOTHER systems are equipped with a Reverse Ascending function. If the sensor detects a collision with an object, forklift, or personnel during the descending cycle, the door will automatically reverse its direction and move upwards to mitigate the impact.
Yes. Uniflow provides an orange sheet option specially formulated to cut off light wavelengths at 350nm. This spectrum range is the frequency to which insects are most responsive, meaning its installation is proven to significantly reduce the attraction of flying insects.
Yes, Uniflow manufactures the RA-2Es model, which is specifically designed with an explosion-proof structure rated d2G4 for use in Zone 2 areas. This unit utilizes an anti-static sheet integrated with an instant static electricity discharge structure to prevent the generation of sparks.
