The TORO machine is the ‘new generation’ of Geared machines.
Like its smaller ‘sibling’ the LEO, the TORO has three possible mounting positions (vertical, horizontal right and left) which allows the motor to be turned in various planes in order to minimise the space it requires therefore making it ideal for small machine rooms /MRL. The TORO also has an inclined worm shaft axis which keeps its size to a minimum without affecting its static load capacity. The gearbox is ‘sealed for life’ with Synthetic oil reducing maintenance time.
The TORO machine is most commonly used for a duty load of 6-10 persons with a 1:1 roping arrangement.
The TORO can also be supplied with a safety brake on the slow shaft for A3 / UCM.
The TORO is also available with the option of an extended slow shaft for bottom drive applications and a Drum which negates the need of a counterweight and therefore increases the Lift car capacity.
