Escalator gear units without compromise
It is impossible to imagine urban everyday life without escalators. Our pairing of top grade materials, selected standard parts and high precision housing machining is convincing: All around the globe, more than 20,000 AUMA Drives escalator gear units are reliably automating escalators in airpoirts, underground stations and department stores.
We guarantee high resilience and functional safety, long service performance, reliability and economic viability.
Our models are available in sizes 125, 160 and 180 (FTS.1-series), as well as 158, 180 as 212 (FTSST.1-series). Technical data on each size is provided on request.
