How fast should a main curtain move? Just got a spec to go automated on our main rag. 180fpm hoist. That feels way too slow to me. We trim at 22' but can go out to 24' if need be. That is 7 seconds top to bottom, 9 seconds if you account for acceleration and deceleration. Looking at Clancy's site, you don't get any faster until you go line shaft and even then your still looking at 240fpm. A good flyman can get our rag in/out in 3-4 seconds. Am I crazy here or do they not make a motor fast enough for this purpose?
