How does the travelator works?

A travelator, also known as a moving walkway or moving sidewalk, functions by using a continuous belt that moves in a loop. The surface of the travelator is equipped with a series of rollers that allow the belt to glide smoothly over them. As passengers step onto the moving surface, they are gently propelled forward, allowing for easier and quicker movement in busy areas like airports and shopping centers. The mechanism is powered by an electric motor that drives the rollers, maintaining a consistent speed for safety and efficiency.
