Smart Standby Drive

Intelligent optical radar sensors slow the escalator to eco-standby speed when no passengers are detected, slashing continuous power consumption by up to 35%.

Comb & Skirt Safety Arrays

Comprehensive micro-switch protection including comb plate obstruction sensors, broken drive chain interlocks, and anti-pinch skirt deflector brushes.

Anti-Slip Aluminum Steps

One-piece die-cast aluminum/stainless steel grooved steps with high-visibility yellow safety demarcation resin borders on all three sides.

Robotic-Welded Truss

Structural carbon steel rectangular tube truss with anti-corrosion zinc primer coating engineered for heavy vibration dampening and long service life.
