Rediseño de un ascensor de 800 kg de capacidad para 5 personas implementado por la empresa Asytec

Abstract

The present Project has as objective the modernization of an elevator of 800 kg of capacity for five people, also it includes the change of all pieces, elements and obsolete components for the modern technology to increase the vertical travel safety to the user complying with the INEN standards established for elevators. The development has as opening the theoretical framework that raises the basic details of the parts and components to be modernized of an elevator. Using the pertinent study of the Quality Function Matrix (QFD), the alternatives that meet the needs of the user are chosen, which require safety regulations regarding the modernization of the elevator, a testing protocol of the components and installed parts. The structural calculations of the various components that serve to verify the load they must lift and the efforts to which they must be subjected within their daily operation are carried out, in order to determine the devices to be replaced. Each component to be assembled is characterized knowing its operation for its modernization avoiding failures in its usual performance. The implementation of the project is divided in mechanic and electric stages that must follow an order which is detailed at the end of the technical inspection. Tests are carried out to verify the operation of the elevator fulfill both the needs established by the user and the INEN standards. Finally, the conclusions are stablished based on the obtained results, some recommendations are specified to maintain optimal performance in the modernization.
