Elevator Roller Guide System Failure — Car Top Overview

Описание: In this video, TEC reviews a car top focusing on an elevator roller guide system failure. Although this elevator is not hydraulic and operates at relatively low speed, deteriorated roller guides can still create serious issues if not addressed.
They highlight how worn or mismatched roller guide assemblies can cause excessive movement, leading to potential damage to door equipment and operator components. Proper maintenance and consistency in roller guide assemblies are critical to preventing unnecessary wear and operational problems.
