are you using cells as a means of opening or a means of additional safety?
it sounds to me that there is either a short in the command inputs or a short on the cells if they are used for a means of opening or closing.
a way to test this is to disconnect all pushbuttons intercoms ect and see if this still happens i am confident this is the issue and all that will be required is to replace the cable.

Many thanks for answer!!!
These photocells are for opening and closing.
I think. Not sure. This is the explanation and wiring is attached.
If gate is open. after passing through the bean, gate wings are closing.
If gate is in phase of opening, passing through the bean is going to stop the gate. For a moment.
If gate is closing, passing through the bean is going to open the gate wings.
Where can I buy spare parts?

This definitely sounds like there is something giving a command to the gate, such as a shorted input cable from a keypad or other. However it could be faulty photocells. spares can be found on easygates.co.uk
