Prerequisites
You can adjust car frame pulley beam settings.
Steps
Preparation: create the practice project
1.) Create and save the practice project. Using the Shaft Wizard, create a project with:
5 floors, typical floor-to-floor distance 3000 mm
Consider travel: No; Create building floor levels: No
Traction elevator 2:1; 13 persons / 1000 kg, 1 m/s
MRL, top
Car roping 1 pulley top, without CW safety gear
Counterweight roping 1 pulley top, counterweight left
Sheet templates: LD Installation Drawing and LD Typical Views For Your Elevator
Car width 1600 mm, car depth 1400 mm
Entrances front on all floors, rear on the first and last level
Pit 1200 mm, E1 2900 mm, E2 3000 mm, E3 3000 mm, E4 3800 mm.
Save it as LDTrainingSampleA2_03.ld3.
Exchange the car frame and custom related settings
2.) Exchange the central guided car frame. The L-shaped car frame must be selected manually after the Shaft Wizard has finished. Use the Component Navigator and choose Rope – L-shaped car frame 2:1 – guides outside.
3.) Change the car frame position. Use the Properties docking window. This is recommended to adapt the elevator system to the new requirements; a recalculation runs in the background.
4) Modify the rail brackets. Use the Properties docking window.
5.) Define the distances between the guides. Use the dimension on the drawing or the corresponding properties.
6.) Customize the entrance settings. A lateral guided system now allows entrances on both side walls of the shaft (see the Floor Levels topic in A1).
Result
The central guided car frame is replaced by an L-shaped, lateral guided car frame, with position, rail brackets, guide distances, and entrances adapted to the new system.
