Ingenious engineering, exceptional quality

orinoco’s versatile performance and exceptional quality are the result of our best-in-class engineering, advanced production systems and selected energy-efficiency features.

Guiding system: Fit to purpose

Precise engineering and flawless manufacturing are key to ensuring the highest ride quality. With orinoco’s superior guiding system, we ensure exceptional passenger comfort certified to ISO 18738-2.

Precise guide rails

Even pallet run

The guide rails are precisely aligned using best-in-class adjustment jigs to achieve a perfectly even pallet run for the highest ride comfort.

Guiding rollers

Reliable pallet run

The pallet tracks have vertical and horizontal guidance provisions to reduce wear and tear, noise levels and maintenance.

Smooth run rails

Jerk free pallet run

The rails enable a smooth transition of the pallet chain rollers from the guide rails to the pallet chain sprocket, eliminating the polygon effect throughout the moving walk and enhancing ride quality.

Pallet fastening: Engineered to perform

Our unique fastening concept uses hollow axles that connect the pallets and chain using solid bolts. The result? Easier installation, operation and maintenance.

Pallet bolts

Convenient and failsafe

Connecting the pallets and chain with bolts makes assembly fool proof and disassembly a snap for maintenance.

No pallet chain bridge

Easier maintenance

The hollow bridge eliminates the need for a pallet chain axis, providing easy access to the inside of orinoco for maintenance.

Oil caps

Clean and safe pallets

Oil caps at the end of the hollow axle prevent oil from leaking and polluting the pallet tread, keeping pallets clean and safe.

Operation: A focus on sustainability

While a moving walk consumes minimal energy in a building, we strive to continuously improve our moving walks’ performance and sustainability.

Energy efficiency class

Highest energy efficiency Class A+++

Based on the ISO 25745-3 standard and depending on your final configuration, orinoco delivers the highest energy efficiency.
