Abstract

See full text

A resurfacer for a belt of an elevator system includes a resurfacing roller having a selected surface roughness and a heater element to heat the belt to a selected temperature. A biasing element urges the resurfacing roller into contact with the belt and applies a selected pressure to the belt. A method for altering a surface roughness of a belt of an elevator system includes positioning a resurfacing roller having a selected surface roughness at an outer surface of the belt and heating the belt to a selected temperature. A selected pressure is applied to the belt via the resurfacing roller. The belt is passed along the resurfacing roller and the surface roughness of the belt is altered via the resurfacing roller.
