What is a Travelator?
Also known as a moving walkway or auto-walk, a travelator is a slow-moving conveyor mechanism that transports people across a horizontal or inclined plane over a short to medium distance. Travelators can be used by standing or walking on them, and are often installed in pairs going in opposite directions.
