LIFTS MECHANISM
HYDRAULIC
Overview of HydraulicÂ
Hydraulic lifts operate using a hydraulic piston system powered by fluid pressure. These lifts are ideal for low-rise buildings, typically up to 5 floors, and are known for their smooth and stable operation.
How It Works
A hydraulic pump pushes oil into a cylinder, which then moves a piston upward to lift the elevator cabin. To descend, the fluid is released slowly back into the tank, allowing the lift to lower with gravity-assisted motion.
TRACTION
Overview of Traction
Traction lifts operate using ropes or steel belts, driven by a motor and counterweight system. This mechanism allows the elevator to move efficiently in mid to high-rise buildings and is known for its speed, energy efficiency, and smooth performance.
How It Works
The elevator car is connected to ropes or belts that pass over a drive sheave (pulley) connected to an electric motor. A counterweight balances the elevator’s weight. As the motor turns the sheave, the car moves up or down.
Machine Room-Less (MRL)
Overview of MRLÂ
Â
MRL lifts are a modern type of traction elevator that do not require a separate machine room. All major components—like the motor and controller—are installed within the elevator shaft itself. This space-saving design is ideal for buildings with limited room.
🔧 How It Works
MRL lifts use the same basic principle as traction lifts. A motor (usually gearless) drives a sheave that moves the ropes or belts, lifting the elevator car. But instead of placing the motor in a separate room, it’s mounted inside the shaft, either at the top or side.
