Accelerating Moving Walkway Escalator Moving Walkway Automatically Stop

An escalator is a motorized, continuous staircase designed to transport people between different floors in high-traffic areas such as shopping malls, airports, metro stations, and commercial buildings. It consists of a chain of linked steps that move on tracks, driven by an electric motor and gear system. Escalators operate at a fixed speed (typically 0.3–0.6 m/s) and can move large volumes of passengers efficiently, reducing congestion on stairs. Safety features include comb-plate sensors, emergency stop buttons, and handrail synchronization.

A moving walkway (or travelator) is a flat or slightly inclined conveyor belt that transports pedestrians over longer horizontal or gentle-slope distances, commonly found in airports, exhibition halls, and transit hubs. Unlike escalators, walkways have a smooth surface without steps, making them wheelchair- and luggage-friendly. They are particularly useful for reducing walking fatigue in large terminals.

FAQ
1. Is it dangerous for power failure suddenly during the elevator running?
If it occurs, the elevator will automatically stop due to the electrical and mechanical safety device. In case of power failure,elevator brakes will automatically taken. In addition, the power supply departments such as planned outage, prior notice are also operating.
