CAME AXO AX3024 24 V Swing Gate Motor

The CAME AXO AX3024 is the only motor in the POWERgate Abu Dhabi swing gate range where the opening and closing speed is field-programmable via the compatible control panel. Rather than a fixed cycle time, the AX3024’s encoder-based control allows the installer to set the manoeuvring speed to a faster or slower rate to suit the installation. A faster setting reduces the time to open or close the gate — useful for high-traffic entrances or tight access timing sequences. A slower setting produces smoother, quieter gate movement — preferred for premium residential villas in Abu Dhabi where gate noise and abruptness matter. The speed can also be adjusted differently for the opening and closing phases, for example opening fast for vehicle access and closing slowly for safety. This programmability is enabled by the encoder’s continuous position tracking, which allows the control panel to manage motor speed at any point in the arc.

CAME describes the AXO AX3024 as heavy-duty service and “suitable for intensive 24V swing gate automation” — placing it at the high end of the duty cycle spectrum. For context across the range: residential 30% motors (BENINCA BILL range, CAME FROG-AE) handle 15–20 cycles per day; 50% motors (CAME AXI, AMICO) handle approximately 25–30 cycles; semi-intensive (BFT ATHOS, CAME ORO E) handle 30–50 cycles; intensive (BFT ELI, BENINCA DU.350N) are unlimited in standard commercial use; and continuous/very intensive (BFT GIUNO ULTRA, BFT ELI BT A40) represent the peak. The AXO AX3024’s heavy-duty service at 24V sits alongside intensive use, making it appropriate for Abu Dhabi commercial, condominium, or shared-access entrances with high daily gate cycles while retaining the 24V architecture’s battery backup compatibility.

The rated motor power of 120W (equivalent to 24V × 5A sustained) represents the AXO AX3024’s continuous running draw during normal gate movement. The 10A maximum absorption is the peak startup current drawn momentarily when the motor first energises against a stationary heavy gate. Starting a 500 kg gate leaf from standstill requires overcoming static inertia, which demands significantly more current than sustaining movement once the gate is in motion. This peak current drops back to the normal operating level within the first second of movement as the gate accelerates. The 24V control panel (801QA-0050 or 801QA-0060) and its transformer must be rated to supply at least 10A peak without voltage collapse; an undersized supply that sags during startup can cause encoder position errors or motor stall.

Yes — the CAME AXO AX3024 delivers 500–4500N thrust at 24V DC on gates up to 3.0m and 500 kg, making it the most powerful 24V swing gate motor in the POWERgate Abu Dhabi range. For comparison: the BFT KUSTOS BT B40 handles 700 kg at 24V/40W (highest weight, but does not specify thrust in N); the BFT PHOBOS BT B40 handles 700 kg at 24V/40W with 130° arc; the CAME AXI range reaches 400–2000N at 24V on gates up to 250 kg. The AXO AX3024’s 4500N maximum thrust at 24V matches the 230V AXO AX302304 and exceeds all other 24V motors in the range on thrust output, while its heavy-duty service rating enables high-frequency commercial operation that 40W KUSTOS and PHOBOS motors are not rated for.

The CAME AXO AX3024 carries a 24-month manufacturer warranty from purchase. CAME specifies 801QA-0050 or 801QA-0060 as the only compatible control panels — these are 24V boards designed for the AXO’s encoder protocol and 10A peak current requirement. Using any other control panel voids warranty and risks encoder signal incompatibility. The adjustable manoeuvring time must be correctly set during commissioning: a speed set too high for the gate weight causes the encoder to detect false obstacles and trigger safety reversals; a speed too slow reduces daily throughput unnecessarily. The IP44 rating requires sheltered pillar installation. The 24V supply’s 10A peak capacity must be verified before commissioning.
