Improvements of Escalator Breaking

System for Passenger Safety

INTRODUCTION
Escalator is a mode for vertical
transportation in the form of
staircase which transport people
between floors of a building.
Escalator help controlling the flow
of people
The escalator should be located
where it can be easily seen by the
general public.

 Escalators are used around the world

to movepedestriantraffic in places
where elavatorswould be
impractical.
The carrying capacity of an escalator
system must match the expected
peak traffic demand

 A braking system for escalators

comprising each braking device
having a main break which is released
when there is no voltage and
auxiliary break which is closed when
there is no voltage in the electric
activator

STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

1.

What improvements must we do to

the existing braking system of
escalator to make it more safety?
2. How regular maintenance of
escalator help to guarantee braking
system will work properly?
