Group 05 / 16
Elevator machinery and components
For elevator and escalator projects, we match machines, motors, control panels, ropes and door systems to the standards the buyer requires, such as the EN 81 series, and ship them directly from the manufacturer.
Overview
This group covers complete passenger and freight elevators, escalators and moving walks, gearless and geared elevator machines, drive motors, control panels and frequency inverters, steel elevator ropes, cabin and automatic door systems, as well as parts such as guide rails, sheaves, overspeed governors and safety gears. Parts are supplied both for new building projects and for the modernization of existing elevators. The main buyers in this group are elevator installation and maintenance companies, construction contractors, building investors and elevator parts distributors.
At the quotation stage, rated load (kg), speed (m/s), number of stops, shaft and machine room dimensions, sheave diameter, rope construction and supply voltage are matched against the buyer's project. If certificates of conformity to standards such as EN 81-20/50 are requested, they are obtained from the manufacturer. Before loading, machine and panel nameplates, rope diameter and length, door dimensions and the parts list are checked. Materials are crated per project and shipped by container or truck directly to the construction site or the buyer's warehouse.

What we check before loading
Project parameters
Capacity, speed, number of stops, shaft dimensions and drive type are compared with the buyer's project to confirm the bill of materials.
Standards compliance
If requested, certificates of conformity and type-examination certificates for EN 81-20/50 or other standards required by the destination country are obtained from the manufacturer.
Rope and machine inspection
Rope diameter, construction and breaking-load certificate, as well as machine and panel nameplates and serial numbers, are checked before loading.
Project-based packing
Parts for each elevator are labeled in separate crates, and long parts such as rails and doors are supported against bending during loading.
Available documents
- Commercial invoice and packing list
- Certificate of origin
- EN 81 certificate of conformity / type-examination certificate (if requested)
- Rope test certificate and installation manual
Packaging and transport
Machines, panels and doors are crated per elevator, while rails and rope reels are bundled separately; shipped in 20' and 40' containers or by truck.
