Performance Advantages in Elevator Service

  • Extended Chain Life – Pocket support along ~120° of the link circumference lowers bearing pressure by up to 40 % versus toothed wheels.
  • Reduced Maintenance – Segments can be swapped individually through the elevator casing window—no shaft removal required.
  • Lower Noise & Vibration – Tooth-free engagement eliminates impact, cutting sound pressure levels by 6–8 dB.
  • Hot-Material Capability – COA series segments maintain hardness above 350 °C, ideal for clinker exits.
  • Energy Savings – Smooth rolling contact trims motor amperage, typically saving 3–5 % drive power.

Supplied-as-One “COA / CBA Assembly Kit”

  • Wheel rim (segmented) pre-mounted on hub
  • Machined shaft with keyways, endcaps & retainer nuts
  • Spacer rings / shims to match exact elevator casing width
