SEZ Technopolis Moscow has developed an innovative solution for the production of elevators

The new elevator winch was created by the company STC Drive Technique located in the capital's special economic zone. The development is two times lighter than its counterparts, and the service life is designed for at least 20 years as informed by Gennady Degtev, CEO of SEZ Technopolis Moscow. The winch is the key device in the elevator design that raises and lowers the car. Its characteristics affect ride comfort, noise level and power consumption. “The development is primarily aimed at import substitution. With limited supply in the domestic market Russian elevator companies mainly use foreign-made winches. The new device of the enterprise has been successfully tested at one of the elevator plants, it is two times lighter than analogues, corresponds to the "A" class of energy efficiency and has every chance to fill the deficit of Russian products in the industry”, said Gennady Degtev. According to Dmitry Krasnov, CEO of STC Drive Technique in addition to durability and economy, the device is convenient in operation, since it does not require changing the oil in its elements, does not take up much space in the engine room, makes less noise and has a number of improved technical characteristics. “The development is a proper response to the needs of the Russian elevator industry and housing and communal services, where, according to experts, more than 160 thousand elevators require replacement and modernization. Specializing in electric drives, the company has created a turnkey solution for the elevator industry. A patent for an invention has already been received. The product will be launched into serial production after final tests in the summer of 2021”, he added.  ---------------------- Press service of the SEZ "Technopolis Moscow" Phone: +7 916 516-15-46 Mail: pr@technomoscow.ru [ mailto:pr@technomoscow.ru ] Subscribe to the SEZ "Technopolis Moscow" in social networks, follow the main news of the SEZ in telegram-channel [ https://t.me/technopolismoscow ]  and receive all the most important news delivered to your mail in our weekly newsletter [ http://events.technomoscow.ru/subscribe/?utm_source=site_technomoscow ] .
