At LERA Ascensores S.L., we specialise in designing efficient and safe lifting solutions for professionals in the sector. One of our most popular products, the PET 1000 Escalator, has once again demonstrated its efficiency during a technical intervention in one of the most emblematic buildings in Europe: the Galeries Lafayette in Paris.
The challenge: to remove a 900 kg motor from an escalator
Our client, Jean Michel, needed to carry out maintenance work on escalators and walkways in this well-known shopping centre. In particular, he had to extract a motor weighing approximately 900 kg installed on an escalator of the Koné brand, located in an environment that was difficult to access.
To do so, it relied on the PET 1000 Escalator, an aluminium gantry crane specially developed to facilitate heavy work in complex spaces.
The solution: PET 1000 Escalator, efficiency and safety
The PET 1000 Escalator is a light, strong and easy to assemble aluminium gantry, ideal for installation, repair and maintenance work on escalators and moving walkways. Its modular design allows it to be adapted to different working configurations and ensures maximum safety during manoeuvres.
This is how the customer rated his experience:
"Très bon portique, léger, simple à installer. Nous avons sorti un moteur de 900 kg environ sur un EM de marque Koné avec les deux chariots - au top pour la sécurité. Je suis très content dans l'ensemble."
Translation:
"Very good gantry, light, easy to install. We extracted an engine of about 900 kg on a Koné escalator with the two trolleys - excellent in terms of safety. I am very satisfied overall.
Result: quick and smooth intervention
Thanks to the use of the PET 1000 Escalator, Jean Michel and his team were able to carry out the work efficiently, minimising assembly times and ensuring the safety of both the equipment and the environment. The gantry crane responded perfectly to the demands of the operation, demonstrating why it is a favourite solution for escalator and walkway maintenance technicians.
