Gearless Machine

The gearless machine, which is powered by a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM), represents the state of art in elevator technology - especially for the Machine Roomless (MRL) Segment. We use precision made High Torque Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor gearless traction machines. These Machines are highly efficient and consumes less Power as compared to Geared machines.

As there is no reduction gearbox, the machine ensures high efficiency. these machines are sealed for lifetime and do not require oil Change. These machines also provide a smooth ride for the passengers as there is low noise and vibrations as compared to a Geared machine.

Most of the time the gearless machine is fitted with 2:1 roping which reduces the kilowatt rating of the Machine required for carrying certain amount of load resulting in better efficiency. These Machines save upto 30% of power as compared to geared Machine. This Machine can be used for Machine Roomless applications. These Machines are used for low as well for high speed application. All high-rise, high speed elevators use gearless machines.

Geared Traction Machine

Geared traction machines are driven by AC 3-phase electric motors. Geared machines use 'Worm Shaft Gears' to control mechanical movement of elevator cars by "rolling" steel hoist ropes over a drive sheave which is attached to a gearbox driven by a high speed motor. These machines are generally the best option for basement or overhead traction use.
