If you are an elevator manager, you should have a commitment to ensure that the elevators on your site are always in proper and complete working condition. Here, we list out some of the common causes of elevator malfunction that are the reason for an elevator's breakdown.
Worn Sheaves
The pulley or sheave is the basic mechanism of an elevator, despite being a complex piece of equipment. Sheaves can become worn down after years of supporting heavy loading in an elevator, which can create a tumultuous ride on many axes. The elevator may not only have fits and starts as it climbs the shaft, but it may also have some side-to-side bumps. It is crucial to repair or regroove worn-out sheaves.
Motor Failure
Some elevator motors still run on direct current even when buildings are built for alternating current. This means that before the elevator functions, motor-generator sets must convert AC to DC. The wear-prone carbon brushes, among other moving parts, are a major cause of breakdowns in elevators, making elevator motor failures a common thing.
Your building could be fully destroyed by an elevator motor failure, but Bonanza can definitely help if you need to hang a notice saying "Out of Order." From the heavy-duty AC and DC motors that power modern elevator cars to the stepper and servo motors in CNC machines, the team is professional in all types of electric motor repair.
Damaged Consoles
Damage to the console, which is the board of buttons that directs the elevator where to go, is one of the most frequent reasons for elevator malfunctions. By pressing buttons too firmly, simultaneously, or in other ways beyond what the console can handle, both impatient passengers and young children can cause damage to the console. For those caught in the car, this can be an uncomfortable breakdown situation and a costly repair.
