AKIŞ MAKİNA MOTOR DÖKÜM SANAYİ VE TİCARET LİMİTED ŞİRKETİ
Being the choice of thousands of lift manufacturers in Turkey and the world with more than a quarter of a century of knowledge and experience, Akış (Elevator) continues its journey without leaving the high discipline model that has made it a leader and reliable company in its sector for years. Akış has been trying to be deserving of the confidence of the sector in its brand for years walking on the double to the future with its vision to follow the developing technologies and always take up the best. Akış will continue to convey Turkey with the same stability today and in the future as in the past.
Developed by the engineers of Akış after a long R&D process, the Ak-4 elevator motor has the characteristic of being the quietest operating elevator motor in Turkey since the Stator iron losses are minimized. At the same time, AK-4, which does not need a motor room because it is mounted directly on the carcass structure, is also one of the most efficient elevator motors in Turkey with its 80% efficiency capacity
As Akış Elevator, the manufacturer of the highest quality and powerful Elevator Motors in the industry, we can generally divide our product groups and elevator motor types into three categories. These are gear machine group, gearless machine group, and pulley group, respectively. Akış Elevator, with production processes such as research and development, foundry, machining, and winding workshop, continues to produce the highest quality elevator motors for its users.
What is an Elevator Motor?
An elevator motor, in its simplest explanation, is the motor that enables the elevator to move up or down. In terms of its operation principle, before starting to move, the elevator motor generates a rotational force. This rotational force produced by elevator motors is used either to loosen the ropes or to wind them. This allows the elevator car to move downwards or upwards. Elevator motors are specially designed to provide sudden acceleration and rapid deceleration.
Elevator motors provide the power needed to move the elevator car or vertical platform. Elevator motor machines generally operate with an electrical system and are used to move the car at a certain speed and desired height. However, elevator motors can also be used to keep the elevator car or platform in a certain position.
What Are the Types of Elevator Motors?
We can divide Akış elevator motors into two groups: geared and gearless machine groups. These are:

How Does an Elevator Motor Work?
An elevator motor is an electric motor used to move a cabin within a tower of a certain height. The operation principle of elevators is related to the pulley and chain system that moves and controls the cabin. The electric motor rotates the pulley and chain, thereby moving the cabin up and down the tower, sensing the height.
Elevator motors can come in various designs and sizes, typically selected based on the amount of load in the cabin. They are commonly referred to as asynchronous motors and adjust their speed according to the load in the cabin. Additionally, an elevator motor may include a braking system to control the speed and movement of the cabin.
How Should Elevator Motor Maintenance Be Performed?
Regular maintenance of elevator motors is crucial to ensure proper operation. Elevator motors should undergo periodic inspections, and any detected faults or issues should be repaired promptly.
Since elevator machine motors undergo continuous friction, it's essential to clean and lubricate the mechanical system and components at regular intervals to remove dust and dirt.During maintenance, electrical connections should be frequently checked, and any identified faults should be rectified promptly. Maintenance, cleaning, and repairs of elevator machine motors should be carried out by expert professional teams.
How Should Elevator Motor Selection Be Done?
The choice of an elevator motor may vary depending on factors such as the area where the elevator will be used, the capacity of the elevator cabin, and the speed of the elevator. However, other considerations to be mindful of can be listed as follows:
For buildings with high-capacity elevators, a more powerful elevator motor and machine system are required.
A more powerful elevator motor should be preferred to accelerate the movement of elevators in tall structures.
In sectors where heavy-duty industrial work is performed, a more durable and powerful elevator motor should be chosen.
Selection should be made in an environmentally friendly manner, promoting energy efficiency and minimizing noise pollution.
Ensure that the chosen elevator motor has safety mechanisms and operates safely.
It's important for the maintenance of the elevator motor and its components to be easy and cost-effective, ensuring economic and longer-lasting operation.
For elevator motor selection, it's advisable to always seek consultation from professional teams. With Akış Asansör, you can choose the right elevator motor, benefiting from durable, economical, and easily maintainable models.
Elevator Motor Prices
Elevator motors play a significant role in the transportation systems of buildings and structures. Elevator motor prices can vary depending on many factors. The factors that influence elevator motor prices are as follows;
Elevator motors can have different types and features. Some motors are more powerful than others and have greater capacity. However, the prices of more powerful elevator motors may also be higher.
Elevator engine prices can vary depending on the brand and model. Motors from globally recognized and reputable brands may have a higher price tag. One reason for this is that these elevator motors offer higher quality and performance.
Elevator motor prices may also include installation and maintenance costs. The installation of elevator motors requires the work of an expert team, which can incur an additional cost. Additionally, regular maintenance of your motor is important to ensure longevity and safe operation. Maintenance costs can also increase elevator motor prices.
