What is a Gearless Elevator Motor?
The gearless elevator motor is a new generation of traction elevator motors that lacks a gearbox. The gearless motor provides extremely smooth movement, and it has the least environmental impact as it does not use motor oil. what are the reasons for Choosing a Gearless Elevator? Gearless motors are produced in high capacities and speeds, making them the preferred and optimal choice for residential towers, high-traffic hotels, and commercial complexes. In the gearless system, due to the type of power distribution, the power of the gearless motor is less than that of a geared motor with a similar capacity. For example, for an elevator with a capacity of 6 passengers at a speed of one meter per second, a geared motor with 5.5 kilowatts is needed. In contrast, in the gearless system, a motor with 3 kilowatts can operate an elevator.
Gearless technology in motors produced in Germany, Italy, and China has reached the utmost quality, efficiency, and product diversity. Gearless elevator motors are available in various capacities, ranging from 6 passengers - 450 kilograms to 30 passengers - 2250 kilograms, with different speeds.

Features of Gearless Elevator Motors

• The performance efficiency of gearless motors is approximately 98%.
• Gearless motors do not require lubrication.
• Gearless motors have smaller volume and lighter weight.
• The price of gearless motors is higher compared to geared types.

Power Consumption of Gearless Elevator Motors

What type of power do gearless elevator motors consume? The power consumption of gearless motors is three-phase.

Choosing a Gearless Elevator Motor

Boldly, it can be said that by selecting the right gearless motor, you won't have much need for repairs and maintenance over time. The main criterion for selecting an elevator motor is its useful capacity for displacement, height, and speed. The higher the speed of the elevator motor, the power of the elevator motor is increased by about 2 times. Increasing the motor power raises the rated current of the elevator, and a suitable control panel must be used in the elevator for this current.

Do gearless motors require compensating chains? It should be noted that most gearless motors do not require compensating chains up to a height of 30 meters.

 It can be inferred that in the selection of an elevator, the most crucial factor is the elevator motor because the lifespan of elevator usage depends on it. Among elevator motors, gearless motors have a higher price but are highly effective in high-traffic and tall buildings.
