Elevators 2

There are 4 main types of elevators classified according to hoist mechanism: hydraulic, traction, climbing, and pneumatic elevators. Traction elevators use ropes and motors to raise and lower elevator cars while hydraulic elevators use fluid pressure. Elevators are also classified according to their uses, including passenger elevators for transporting people and freight elevators designed to carry heavy loads for commercial and industrial applications. Freight elevators can hold between 2,500 and 10,000 pounds and travel heights up to 50 feet.

ACCORDING TO USES
Freight Elevator
In the world of elevators, these lifts are
workhorses. These are very useful for transporting
materials, goods in warehouses, manufacturing
industries, shopping malls, seaports, etc. This type of
elevator is separated into classes, to describe their
load capacity as well as application. These lifts are
strong in nature, and they are specially
manufactured by engineers.
The features of this elevator include: the range of
loading capacity is from 2500 lbs to 10000 lbs, height
of the travel up to 50fts. The benefits of these
elevators include; these elevators are designed for
commercial as well as industrial applications. The
flexible design to hold the application, door designs
can be changed, eco-friendly, etc.
