Energy Efficient Direct Drive from Kone Elevators

The new KONE Direct Drive is the eco-efficient heart of the KONE TransitMaster 120™ escalator. As well as delivering best-in-class energy efficiency under variable traffic conditions, this innovative, reliable technology also improves passenger safety and makes maintenance safer and easier than ever before.

Smart, efficient power with reliable performance

Eco-efficient design, with the motor directly connected to the main shaft by the gear, and low input power requirements. Extra power for demanding people flow, with the possibility to combine two drives to power the escalator step chain in heavy traffic environments.

Simpler maintenance, minimizes downtime, and longer equipment lifetime

Minimized downtime and efficient maintenance thanks to the drive being located outside the step band, which means easier, faster access for service technicians and minimal downtime.

Fewer spare parts needed because of the drive's simple configuration and chainless design.

Increased safety

Chainless design eliminates the risk of chain failure, further boosting reliability.

External drive location means maintenance is safe and efficient, as there is no need to remove any steps.
