Rail-mounted freight elevators are primarily used to transport heavy objects, materials, or equipment between different floors in commercial, industrial, or residential environments; passenger elevators are designed to transport people vertically. Although both freight elevators and passenger elevators are used for vertical transportation, due to different uses, the design parameters of the products are also very different.
The load capacity of ordinary guide rail freight elevators is 500-5000kg. Due to the difference in transported goods, the load capacity of specially customized freight elevators can reach 10ton-20ton. Therefore, the table size of customized freight elevators may be small, 50*50cm, or very large, 5m*5m. Commonly used in warehouses, factories, logistics centers and loading docks
Passenger elevators are different. Due to the limitation on the number of personnel during vertical lifting, the usual load capacity is 350kg-1000kg. Ordinary household elevators have a small load capacity. For example, a small wheelchair lift has a load capacity of only 350kg, which can be used by a person and a wheelchair. The pull-type elevator is the elevator used directly on the residential floor. The maximum number of people allowed is 10 people, or 1000kg.
The appearance of the two is also very different. Guide rail freight elevators are built with sturdy materials and reinforced structures to withstand the weight of heavy objects. The design is simpler and focuses on practicality rather than aesthetics. Passenger elevators are beautifully designed with smooth walls, glass doors, lighting and modern décor. Smooth and quiet operation to ensure a comfortable ride.
In addition, the difference in lifting speed between freight elevators and passenger elevators is also very large. Freight elevators are typically slower than passenger elevators because their design focus is on load capacity and reliability rather than rapid transportation. And pay more attention to stopping accuracy and load stability. Passenger elevators, on the other hand, are generally faster and are designed for frequent stops and efficient vertical transportation of people. Very high speeds can be achieved, especially in high-rise buildings.
The security gap between the last two is also huge. Because freight elevators are prohibited from carrying people, China removed freight elevators from the catalog of special equipment in 2014. Their production specifications only need to meet the standards of ordinary lifting work platforms.
