In the complex ecosystem of Subway and Metro stations, the elevator is not just a convenience; it is a vital component of urban mobility. The Elevator Traveling Cable serves as the nervous system of these elevators, providing power, control signals, and data transmission between the elevator car and the controller. Unlike standard residential buildings, metro station elevators face extreme duty cycles, operating nearly 24/7 with high passenger loads.
As global urbanization accelerates, the demand for "Smart Metro" systems has pushed the technical requirements for traveling cables to new heights. Modern cables must now support high-definition CCTV signals, emergency communication protocols, and real-time monitoring data, all while maintaining mechanical flexibility under constant motion.
Subway elevators often cycle hundreds of times per day. Our cables are engineered for superior fatigue resistance to prevent core breakage.
Safety is paramount in underground environments. Traveling cables for subway stations are strictly required to be Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) and flame retardant. In the event of a fire, these cables ensure that toxic fumes are minimized, allowing for safer evacuation and maintaining critical communication links for as long as possible.
Modern metro elevators are equipped with IoT sensors and multimedia displays. Our traveling cables integrate high-speed Ethernet pairs or fiber optic cores alongside power lines, ensuring seamless 1080p video streaming and real-time diagnostic reporting to the station control center.
For deep-level metro stations (reaching depths of 30-50 meters), the weight of the traveling cable itself becomes a factor. We use high-tensile strength steel supports within the cable structure to prevent elongation and ensure the cable remains perfectly aligned within the hoistway.
Metro stations are high-EMI environments due to high-voltage traction power for trains. Our traveling cables feature advanced shielding to protect signal integrity from electromagnetic interference, preventing "ghost" calls or sensor errors.
Established in January 2007 (formerly Nanhai Yanbu Seelee Elevator Parts Factory, founded in 1990), Foshan Dalong Chain Equipments Sales Co., Ltd. has been a pioneer in the elevator component industry for over three decades.
Upholding the principles of "Customer First, Quality First," we have built an impeccable reputation as a strategic partner for global giants including Otis, Schindler, Hitachi, Kone, Mitsubishi, Fuji, and MTR Singapore. Our status as a KONE global parts strategic cooperative supplier underscores our commitment to world-class standards.
Our extensive production network covers over 4,500 square meters in Suzhou, with additional specialized facilities in Shanghai and Nantong. These sites are equipped with cutting-edge manufacturing technology and managed by seasoned professionals dedicated to delivering high-quality products that meet international standards.



At our Foshan headquarters, we maintain a massive inventory of essential spare parts. Our logistics system is optimized for rapid response, ensuring that subway and metro operators receive critical components like traveling cables and safety sensors exactly when needed to minimize station downtime.
The next generation of Elevator Traveling Cables for Subway Stations is moving toward "Active Monitoring." This involves embedding optical fibers that can sense strain and temperature changes, providing predictive maintenance alerts before a cable failure occurs. This is particularly crucial for metro stations where a single elevator outage can disrupt the flow of thousands of commuters.
Furthermore, environmental sustainability is driving the development of recyclable cable materials that do not compromise on the 20-year lifespan required by public transit authorities. Foshan Dalong is at the forefront of these innovations, ensuring our clients stay ahead of the curve.
For over a decade, we have specialized in the sales and custom manufacturing of elevator components that are non-standard, discontinued, or for older models. This is particularly relevant for Subway and Metro stations that may be operating legacy equipment requiring high-quality, modern replacement traveling cables.
Our engineering technical consulting team provides comprehensive pre-sales support, ensuring that the cable specifications—ranging from conductor cross-section to shielding types—perfectly match the environmental demands of your transit project. With exports to over 100 countries, Foshan Dalong is your global partner for reliable elevator infrastructure.
