Elevator machines

Elevator technology from ZIEHL-ABEGG globe. Whether in residential buildings, offices, hotels, or the highest buildings in the world: ZIEHL-ABEGG represents high reliability, safety, and ride comfort. Users worldwide rely on elevator drives from ZIEHL-ABEGG.
ZAtopx, with an advanced StPUGurt (steel and PU belt) concept combines engine power with low noise levels. ZAdisc and ZAsyn, with their flat design, are utilized for elevators with and without a machine room. The gearless ZAtop model series ioffers flexible application and high efficiency combined with a narrow overall width for tight shaft dimensions.
With coordinated control technology from ZIEHL-ABEGG, we supply the complete system from a single source – whether for new construction or the modernisation of existing systems as a retrofit.

Advantages of ZIEHL-ABEGG elevator machines

Modern elevator technology from ZIEHL-ABEGG offers advantages for elevator manufacturers, as the elevator motors can be designed for specific requirements. In combination with coordinated control technology, elevators achieve high efficiency with high-performance motors – regardless of whether they are new systems or upgraded versions of existing systems. In continuous operation, this can contribute to reducing energy consumption and thereby lowering operating costs.

RETROFITBLUE – the perfect concept for upgrading elevators

With RETROFITBLUE, ZIEHL-ABEGG offers the perfect modernisation concept for converting and upgrading elevators with old disc rotor motors. Instead of original spare parts, freely available motor and control technology is used, which meets all current safety technology standards (e.g. UCM).

1. Replacement of the electronic components and installation of the modern frequency inverter ZAdyn4CS

Switch from expensive original spare parts to brand-independent components from ZIEHL-ABEGG. Our state-of-the-art blue technology, which is freely available on the market, is also suitable for replacing old first-generation disc rotor motors.
The specially developed control technology facilitates reliable, manufacturer-independent communication between the old disc rotor motor, our ZAdyn4CS frequency inverter and the new control system.

2. Replacing the old motor and installing the new ZAdisc

With the 1st stage, the underlying conditions for a quick replacement of the old motor and the installation of the new ZAdisc are already in place. The particularly flat design enables easy replacement of the old disc motor with the new ZAdisc – even with the tightest of shaft dimensions. By installing the ZAdisc and the specially developed control technology, you can achieve a permanent reduction in maintenance costs and make your elevator system fit for the future.

ZAtop

The permanent magnet synchronous, gearless internal rotor drive ZAtop was developed for traction sheave cable elevators with and without machine rooms. Motors from the ZAtop model range are available in various sizes: as a motor for a home lift as well as a motor for lifts with high speeds, a high load-bearing capacity and high travel distance. The internal rotor motors offer excellent energy efficiency, low-noise running characteristics and meet all requirements of the Lift Directive 2014/33/EU.

ZAtopx

The ZAtopx elevator machine is a gearless motor for elevators with or without a machine room, which relies on a flat belt as a suspension means. As a result, the dimension s of traction shafts and deflection pulleys have been reduced to 100 mm, which makes these drives even more compact. ZAtopx is therefore the ideal basis for compact, quiet-running elevators and offers reliable ZIEHL-ABEGG quality in a small space.

ZAdisc

ZAdisc is a permanent magnet synchronous, gearless disc rotor motor for traction sheave cable elevators without a machine room. The ZAdisc elevator machine, which meets all requirements of the Lift Directive 2014/33/EU, increases the performance and travel comfort of the elevator system. Thanks to the motor's flat design and ability to be mounted to the guide rails, ZAdisc helps to achieve optimum shaft dimensions.

ZAsyn

ZAsyn is a permanent magnet synchronous, gearless external rotor drive that was specially developed for traction sheave rope elevators with and without a machine room. The motors from the ZAsyn model range offer high energy efficiency and low-noise operation and comply with the provisions of the Lift Directive 2014/33/EU. The shaft dimensions can be optimised thanks to their flat design and ability to be mounted on the wall of the elevator shaft.

Royal League control technology – for new buildings and upgrades to elevator systems

Only when the control technology is perfectly tailored to the elevator machine can the elevator machine deliver the best possible performance. The ZAdyn frequency inverter delivers maximum functionality in the smallest of spaces and enables precise speed control and regulation – for maximum driving comfort with the lowest noise emissions.

The ZArec energy recuperation unit enables energy-saving potential to be fully exploited, thus increasing efficiency and sustainability.

The EVAC 3 evacuation units ensure safe elevator evacuation in case of emergency.
