Traction Elevators Designed for Smooth Performance
Advanced, Reliable, and Smooth Vertical Transportation by Lorven Elevator Services
At Lorven Elevator Services, we provide high-performance traction elevator solutions designed to deliver smooth, safe, and efficient vertical movement for modern buildings. Traction elevators are one of the most widely trusted elevator technologies across residential, commercial, and industrial projects. They are built to handle daily usage with consistency, comfort, and long-term reliability.
What Is a Traction Elevator?
A Traction Elevator is a system that moves the elevator car using strong steel ropes or belts connected to a motor-driven pulley. The elevator car is balanced with a counterweight, which reduces the load on the motor and allows smooth movement between floors.
This balanced design helps traction elevators operate efficiently while maintaining stable performance even in high-rise buildings. Compared to other types of elevators, traction elevators are ideal for buildings with multiple floors because they provide higher travel speed, accurate stopping, and lower energy consumption.
What Is a Traction Elevator Motor?
A traction elevator motor is an electric motor that drives the elevator by rotating a pulley (sheave) connected to steel ropes or belts. These ropes move the elevator car and the counterweight together, allowing balanced and energy-efficient operation.
Unlike hydraulic systems, traction motors do not rely on oil pressure. Instead, they use electrical energy and mechanical balance to lift and lower the elevator car. This makes traction motors ideal for buildings that require smooth travel, higher speed, and frequent use.
Safety Comes First
At Lorven Elevator Services, safety is our top priority. Every traction elevator we install includes advanced safety features designed to protect passengers and equipment.
Our systems include:
Automatic rescue device during power failure
Overspeed governor and emergency braking system
Door safety sensors
Alarm and communication systems
Smooth braking and controlled stopping
Compliance with industry safety standards
Each elevator undergoes thorough testing before commissioning to ensure reliable and safe operation.
