No-Main Curtain Sun-North
The all new No-Main Curtain is the lowest maintenance curtain on the market and operates without the use of a main cable. The No-Main system is very popular with farmers with large sidewall openings and long barns. Curtain systems can be arranged in a number of different configurations, catering to a wide variety of building and ventilation setups.
With this design the curtain is permanently fastened along the top of the opening. There is a center horizontal sleeve and in the sleeve is an automatic tubular actuator that rolls while travelling up, wrapping the curtain around the centre sleeve as it travels.
