Traction Machines (Geared & Gearless)

The traction machine is the powerhouse of the elevator system, responsible for moving the cabin and counterweight. Pak Elevator offers both geared and gearless traction machines from reputable manufacturers, suitable for different operational requirements and building types.

  • Geared Traction Machines: These machines are known for their robust design and suitability for medium-speed, medium-rise applications. They offer excellent torque and are a cost-effective choice for many installations, providing reliable performance with a proven track record. We supply geared machines compatible with various systems, including those found in KONE, Otis, and Schindler installations. Contact Pak Elevator for specific models and technical specifications.
  • Gearless Traction Machines: Ideal for high-speed, high-rise elevators, gearless machines provide superior energy efficiency, quiet operation, and smoother rides. Their compact design and reduced maintenance requirements make them a popular choice for modern, eco-friendly buildings. Our gearless traction machines are available for a wide range of capacities and speeds. Contact Pak Elevator for price and availability of our energy-efficient gearless solutions.

Traction Sheaves & Deflector Sheaves

The traction sheave is a crucial component that grips the elevator ropes, transmitting power from the traction machine to move the car. Deflector sheaves are used to guide the ropes, ensuring proper alignment and tension within the hoistway.

  • Precision Engineering: We supply sheaves manufactured from high-grade materials, precision-machined to ensure optimal rope grip, minimal wear, and prolonged lifespan. Available in various diameters and groove profiles to match specific rope types and elevator capacities.
  • Enhanced Durability: Our sheaves are designed for maximum durability, reducing friction and extending the life of your elevator ropes. This translates to reduced maintenance costs and improved operational safety.

Elevator Traction Ropes (Steel Wire Ropes)

Traction ropes are the primary means of support and movement for the elevator car and counterweight, making their quality paramount to safety. Pak Elevator supplies high-strength steel wire ropes specifically designed for elevator applications.

  • Superior Strength & Flexibility: Our ropes are constructed from high-tensile steel, offering exceptional strength, flexibility, and resistance to wear and fatigue. We stock various constructions, including 8x19S, 8x19W, and 8x25FI, conforming to international safety standards.
  • Optimized Performance: These ropes ensure reliable traction with the sheave while providing a smooth and comfortable ride. Regular inspection and timely replacement are critical for safety, and Pak Elevator provides ropes that meet strict quality controls.
