Electromechanical Conveyance

 CONVEYING SYSTEMS
• Mechanical conveying systems transport
large amounts of product horizontally,
vertically, or at an incline through a powder
processing system. Typically, there are a
number of moving parts within a mechanical
conveying system, such as; belts, buckets,
chains and trays that are utilized to move
product at a quick pace.
 ESCALATOR
• An escalator is a moving staircase – a conveyor transport device for
carrying people between floors of a building.
Escalators are powered by constant-speed alternating current motors
and move at approximately 1–2 feet (0.30–0.61 m) per second. The
maximum angle of inclination of an escalator to the horizontal floor
level is 30 degrees with a standard rise up to about 60 feet (18 m).
Modern escalators have single piece aluminum or steel steps that
move on a system of tracks in a continuous loop.
Direction of movement (up or down) can be permanently the same,
or be controlled by personnel according to the time of day, or
automatically be controlled by whoever arrives first, whether at the
bottom or at the top (the system is programmed so that the direction
is not reversed while a passenger is on the escalator).
The benefits of escalators are many:

They have the capacity to move large numbers of people.

• They can be placed in the same physical space as one might
install a staircase.
• They have no waiting interval (except during very heavy
traffic).
• They can be used to guide people toward main exits or
special exhibits‫ز‬
• They may be weatherproofed for outdoor use.
• They can help in controlling the traffic flow of people For
example, an escalator to an exit effectively discourages
most people from using it as an entrance, and may reduce
security concerns

These car elevators are used in car
showrooms, repair shops, machine floors and
now also in parking lots, with space being a
constraint. These car elevators are simple to
use and easy to install and maintain.
•Dumbwaiter elevators are small sized elevators or
lifts that can be used to carry small items in various
places.
• Dumbwaiter lifts are most commonly used in
restaurants, hotels, libraries, hospitals, factory etc. to
carry small and lightweight items that are usually
heavy for a person to carry and move from one place
to another or one floor to another.

•most of the dumbwaiter lifts are used in hotels and

restaurants where a large amount of items are
needed to be carried to different floors very
frequently.
• Dumbwaiters for restaurants can carry dishes,
groceries, food items, other utensils etc and can be
relaxing for people working there. Restaurant
dumbwaiters are dumbwaiters for restaurants that
are specifically designed to meet the requirements
in a hotel or restaurant.
Commercial dumbwaiters can be used in factories and other offices where heavy items
are supposed to be moved from one place to another. Commercial dumbwaiters are
available in both counter loading and floor loading options. Counter loading
commercial dumbwaiters are used for carrying items on the same floor and floor
loading dumbwaiters can be used for transferring items from one floor to another.
 Freight Elevator, custom built to suit a
variety of industrial applications. These
freight elevators are custom built to
handle very heavy loads in ports,
factories and warehouses. The freight
elevators we offer are constructed to
handle rugged and bulk loads and are
acknowledged for their durability and
performance. These freight elevators can
comfortably handle up to 5000 kgs of
weight at any given time.
in almost every industry like offices,
restaurants, hospitals or hotels etc, there are
goods, large equipments and machines that
need to be carried from one floor to another
different types of goods lifts that are
available in the market –
• hydraulic goods lifts, small goods lifts,
industrial goods lifts, cage model lifts,
cabin model lifts, passenger cum goods
hydraulic lifts etc.
Home elevators are small lifts for homes that can be
easily installed in a private apartment or in huge
bungalows and ease the movement of passengers and
small and big items in the house from one floor to
another.
•Hospital Elevator, which are designed and
built to match international standards set for
hospital elevators in terms of space,
smoothness, speed and emergency control
mechanisms.
• All the specifications of the hospital
elevators are in-line with benchmarks set by
the Indian Bureau of Standards for hospital
elevators.
•These elevators are spacious enough to
comfortably wheel in at least on stretcher,
they are easy to clean, disinfect and sanitize
and can also be operated by passengers in
case of emergencies.
Hydraulics Elevator are ideal
elevators for use in low-rise
buildings, or older buildings
where elevators need to be
added at a later stage. These
hydraulics elevators that we
offer do not require an
additional machine room on top
or below ground level. These
hydraulics elevators we offer
are easy to use and maintain
and built for durability
•Other than offices and commercial areas, lifts
can be used in residential areas too.
•Lifts for home means a lift that has been installed
in the house for easy vertical mobility on different
floors within the house.
•It is a good option for those who have old people
in the house or a person with physical disability
who cannot use stairs in order to move up and
down in the house.
•You can either install a hydraulic lift or a traction
lift in your house – depending on your need and
budget.
Machine Room Less Elevators
These machine room less elevators
we offer are gear less machines
with a permanent magnet
synchronous motor. These machine
room less elevators are energy
efficient, reliable and durable,
while being aesthetically more
appealing than the traction motors.
These elevators are also space
saving and easy and economical to
install, maintain and run smoothly.
•In all residential or commercial areas
where a lot of people live or work, there is
a growing need of passenger lifts.
•Passenger elevators are supposed to be
user friendly so that people can use it even
in absence of an attendant. Therefore, we
design the lifts so that they are
comfortable, reliable, safe and easy to use.
 TRAVELATOR
• Often seen in airports, a Travelator is a slow-moving
conveyor mechanism that transports people across a horizontal
or inclined plane over a short to medium distance. Moving
walkways can be used by standing or walking on them. They
are often installed in pairs, one for each direction
 Moving Walkway
• A moving walkway, also known as an autowalk, moving
sidewalk, moving pavement, people-mover, travolator, or
travelator, is a slow-moving conveyor mechanism that
transports people across a horizontal or inclined plane over a
short to medium distance.
