Motor Compatibility for Curtain Tracks | IKSUN

A motorized curtain track is only as useful as the motor it accepts. IKSUN builds its belt-drive and recessed bodies with Somfy and Jialisi motor interfaces on the same extrusion, so a distributor can keep one motor inventory across projects instead of mixing brands. This guide covers which IKSUN tracks take which motors and how to match them to a project.

How to decide

What to weigh

One body, either motor

The recessed built-in body is produced in Somfy and Jialisi motor interfaces on the same extrusion, so a distributor can keep a single motor stock across every project rather than holding two brands.

Universal belt-drive needs no motor

Sixteen of the IKSUN track bodies are universal belt-drive profiles quoted without a motor, so a distributor fits the brand they already stock instead of buying a configured body.

AT81 built for load

The AT81 integrated motor-and-light track has a 2.0 mm thickened rail wall and a drive belt with stranded steel wires rated at a tensile resistance of at least 600 N, so it carries both the curtain and the light in one extrusion.

Questions on this guide

Answers buyers ask

Which motor brands do IKSUN tracks accept?

The recessed and belt-drive bodies accept Somfy and Jialisi motor interfaces on the same extrusion, and the universal belt-drive range is quoted without a motor so any brand the distributor already stocks can be fitted.

Can I keep one motor inventory across a project?

Yes. Because the recessed and belt-drive bodies accept both Somfy and Jialisi on the same extrusion, a hotel or distributor can standardise on one brand and hold a single motor stock across every room.

Does the AT81 need a specific motor?

The AT81 integrated motor-and-light track carries a 2.0 mm thickened rail wall and a steel-wire belt rated at least 600 N, and is quoted for the motor interface the project specifies, Somfy or Jialisi.
