In every elevator, safety is not an option — it’s the foundation.
The elevator safety gear is one of the most critical protection devices, designed to stop the car in emergencies and prevent accidents caused by overspeed, wire rope failure, or slack.
⚙️ How It Works
When the overspeed governor detects that the elevator is moving too fast or a fault occurs,
the safety gear instantly activates — clamping the car securely to the guide rails, bringing it to a safe and controlled stop.
This mechanism ensures passenger safety and system reliability every second of operation.
