Moving walkway
Masatoshi KOJIMA



Harumi Island Triton Square opened in April, 2001. There is a bridge ,49m long,with moving walkways in way of the entrance. Our rubber belt-driving mechanism, SHI's STAR GLIDE is adopted by the following reasons.

(1) The rubber belt will keep people from slipping even in wet conditions for the walkway.

(2) It can be installed also in the limited space, because of it's small size and lightweight.

(3) It is flexible for the height difference between the entrance and the exit.
