Wondering what is an escalator chain? Then, you’re in the right place! Step chains, also known as escalator chain types, are what move the steps on escalators and drive moving sidewalks. In escalators, the steps are installed about every 400 millimeters, however, widths and heights are different. Keep on reading to learn more. Solutions and advances in noise reduction and low maintenance chain technology are just a few examples of what customers rely on in the escalator industry. Thanks to the high demands on safety and quality, Makelsan chains contribute to the smooth transport of visitors, not just in department stores, subways and shopping malls. Escalator chains that we produce as Makelsan Chain are used in escalator and moving pavement systems to transmit power and carry passengers. It is widely used in escalator facilities such as subway, high-speed train, airport, shopping malls and large supermarkets. We offer long-lasting solutions and services with our specially designed structurally designed escalator chains that meet the stable operation, safety and reliability requirements with the advanced processing and production technologies we have adopted, such as high step distance accuracy, step distance synchronization accuracy and chain length synchronization accuracy. How do escalator chains work? A step chain escalator works via a gear train between the step and links on the chain. The pitch of the chain determines how many steps are carried by each gear. Escalator chains are typically mounted on the steps of the escalator and can either be of steel or aluminum.
