Escalators and moving walkways: types, how they work, and how to choose the right system.

This course presents the different types of escalators and moving walkways, focusing on both their functional and aesthetic characteristics. Participants will learn how these systems are used in various environments and understand the importance of choosing the right type.


Throughout the course, key components will be examined — both mechanical and electrical. Learners will identify essential parts such as the structure, balustrades, handrails and drive system. They will also explore how control panels and safety sensors work to ensure reliable operation.​


Finally, the course discusses the features that make escalators efficient and safe, such as load capacity, accessibility, and maintenance needs. By the end, participants will have a clear understanding of how escalators operate and why they play a vital role in vertical transportation.
