3.2
Product Group TW Machines
The designation of this series (successor generation of W series) is composed
of the combination of TK Elevator, Wormgear (TW) and a figure for the main
performance point (e.g. Q = 1600 kg → 160) of the machine, as well as an in-
dicator of the generation (e.g. "B").
As part of technical further development, these machines are designed com-
pletely with low-friction rolling bearings.
The use of a synthetic gear oil (polyalkylene glycol with additives) of viscosity
class 460 increases the power density and enhances the gear efficiency to
achieve an extension of the oil change intervals.
3.3
Product
The TW45C machine (ThyssenKrupp Wormgear / Q = 450 kg / generation C)
is used within the framework of the TW model series (machines with worm
gears, anti-friction bearings, lubrication with synthetic gear oil) for traction el-
evators in the lower range of performance.
The TW45C has been available since May 2011 and it differs from the previous
version TW45B in that there are modified anti-friction bearings with optimised
sealing (stroke unit on worm shaft).
The TW45C machine, conceived for systems with rated load 450 kg at 1.0 /
1.25 m/s, consists of a worm gear with integrated operational brake, overhung
traction sheave, flange-connected three-phase motor in IMB5/V1 structural
shape as well as the optionally possible emergency brake, NBS.
The corresponding production, assembly and assignment of the components
means that the versions of the machine described below are possible:
▪
Vertical upright motor position; traction sheave position on left / on right;
with / without emergency brake system, NBS – for machine location in the
machine room.
