Elevator Guide Shoe – Precision Guidance System Component

Function & Importance:
The elevator guide shoe is a fundamental mechanical component that ensures stable vertical movement of the elevator car along the guide rails. It maintains precise alignment while absorbing operational vibrations, contributing to passenger comfort and system longevity.

Design Characteristics:

• Dual-Type Configuration:

  • Sliding Type: Uses low-friction polymer pads (UHMWPE/PTFE) for smooth operation

  • Roller Type: Incorporates sealed bearings for high-speed applications (≥2.5m/s)

• Modular Construction:

  • Cast iron or aluminum alloy base frame

  • Replaceable wear linings with 8-12mm initial thickness

  • Adjustable gib screws (±5mm range) for clearance compensation

Performance Parameters:

• Operational speed range: 0.5-10m/s

• Maximum allowable deflection: ≤5mm from rail centerline

• Temperature tolerance: -30°C to +80°C

• Dynamic load rating: 2-3 times nominal car weight

Maintenance Protocol:

1. Quarterly Inspections:

   • Measure lining wear (replacement threshold at 3mm residual)

   • Verify lubrication condition (dry or graphite-based)

   • Check fastener torque (30±5Nm)

2. Annual Services:

   • Rail alignment verification

   • Full component disassembly and cleaning

   • Wear pattern analysis

Technical Advantages:

• Reduces lateral vibration by 60-70% compared to unguided systems

• Extends rail service life through even load distribution

• Accommodates building settlement through adjustable design

FAQ
1. Are the elevator wire ropes durable?
The elevator wire rope has special provisions and requirements. Configuration is not only for wire rope and rated load, but also considered the size of the traction, as a result, the tensile strength of wire rope is greater than the weight of the lift. The safety factor is equipped with more than four wire rope. So it won’t break at the same time.
2. 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.
3. Will us be hurt when it closed suddenly?
In the closing process, if people touch the hall door, the door of elevator will automatically restart without any danger. With anti clamping switch, once the gate touched, this switching action make the elevator unable to be closed and even reopened. In addition, closing force is also available here.
4. How the elevator running?
Elevators are operated with a counterweight wire rope through the (tractor) traction drive, making ups and downs on the guide rail.
5. Is the escalator installation complicated?
We believe the functions of an escalator are not necessarily proportional to the operation complexity. Therefore, escalators designed by us apply an integrated structure, so that the equipment is more precise and more efficient and allows easier and more convenient commissioning.
6. Do you have any cerifications?
Yes, we do with ISO9001 / CCC / CE Certificates for u.
