Used
extensively in factories and storage facilities
for the movement of goods between floors. Two
kinds of lifts are on offer - Drumwound machine
based or traction machine based. The capacities
available range from 250 Kgs to 10 Tons.
Goods and workers can be transported to any number
of floors. The size of the lifts can be from 3' x
2' to as large as 12' x 20'. Standard height of
the cabin is 6' 7½". The lift can open on the
opposite side also ( 2 side open cabin).
Drum wound type without counterweight. This lift is
simpler in design and suited for low cost
installations. The movement of the lift is based
on the coiling and uncoiling of a wire rope on a
rotating drum. A unique feature of our drum design
is the provision of two ropes coiling separately
on a right hand thread groove and a left hand
thread groove. This leads to lesser rope stress
and longer life. These lifts are quicker to
install and require lesser space.
Traction type with counterweight. This lift is a
better machine design wise and also offers greater
safety to the user. This is achieved first through
the use of 3 or more independent wire ropes
stretched across the main traction sheave. Second,
there being no positive coupling between the lift
and the machine leads to greater safety as a slip
is permitted whenever there is an obstruction to
the lift travel. Unlike in the drum wound design
there is no overload on the motor in case of lift
overshooting at the top floor. Jerk free, smooth
travel is possible by the usage of 2:1 roping.
Though smoother, traction lifts travel at higher
speeds than drum wound lifts using the same power.
