False car Elevator Installation Platform Techpology

Engineering Cases
False Car is a temporary elevator installation work platform driven by lifting device (such as climbers) to
be removed before installing the permanent elevator car.
Rigid False car is one of the safest, most convenient, and effective ways to install elevator tracks and other
elevator systems in shafts, and is the most versatile scaffolding free installation tool for elevators. The
Rigid false car has two main types of materials: steel and aluminum, applicable for construction using 2:1
and 1:1 process respectively.

Product features
Bidirectional adjustable and extendable platform size to meet fast installation of different track gauges
Under the 2:1 mode, the load is maximum load, which is up to 1,000kg
Lightweight design, all aluminum platform with 1:1 process has a self-weight of less than 200kg

Scaffoldless Elevator Car Engineering Cases

Installation Technology

Car platform technology refers to the use of new or existing cars as work platforms, usually
using the car ceiling as a platform. However, the platform is driven by a climber rather than
a traction machine. This type of technology requires using two independent means for fall
protection while installing platforms. It is a fast installation process, and the elevator car can
be directly used as a formal elevator car without the need for disassembly and assembly
after being used as a platform.

Product features
The size of the elevator car should match the track gauge size of the shaft, and the car
ceiling enclosure is safe and reliable
With high installation efficiency, it utilizes a new elevator car without the need for repeated
installation and removal of platforms
The elevator car structure has high strength, meeting the requirements of heavy load
operation
By using climbers and force gauges, the top hook can be quickly detected, improving safety
Climbers can be used for serving as guide rail lifting tools, ensuring fast and stable lifting
Using speed limiters and safety gear as one of the protective measures is more reliable
