A suspended sightseeing car that carries passengers in cabins hung from an elevated track. It suits parks and attractions seeking a gentle, high-view ride with custom layout.
Figures below are the design values for this model. Site-specific engineering is confirmed per project.
The suspended sightseeing car is an elevated ride where passenger cabins hang from a track supported by columns. Passengers enjoy views from height as the cabins move along the track. The ride operates smoothly and quietly, making it suitable for family-oriented parks and attractions. Track length and height are customizable to suit your site.
The ride consists of columns, track, drive cars, and suspended cabins. Each drive car has two travel wheels, each with an independent drive system. If one drive system fails, the other continues to operate, enhancing reliability. The cabins are designed for 6 passengers each. The number of cabins is customizable, with a recommended ratio of 8 cabins per kilometer of track. The design service life is 20 years for the overall equipment and 10 years for the cabins.
Track length, height, and footprint are customized to your site. The standard track height is 6 meters, but it can be customized. The equipment level is B for track heights below 10 meters and A for heights of 10 meters or more. Power supply requires 3N+PE 380V/220V 50Hz. Installed capacity depends on the number of cabins. The ride is designed to the standards required by your market, confirmed per project.
The ride includes a triple-redundant anti-collision system: millimeter-wave radar for real-time distance measurement and interlocking speed control, onboard lidar for close-range obstacle warning, and track photoelectric limit for emergency braking. These systems work together to automatically slow and stop the ride in case of obstacles or sudden stops, with braking distance controlled within 0.5 meters. Cabin doors are interlocked with departure. Emergency rescue procedures are documented, and with trained staff and proper equipment, full evacuation can be completed within 1 hour. At least 3 trained operators and 1 maintenance technician are required for rescue operations.
The questions park developers ask most about this ride — answered without the sales language.
The ride operates at a maximum speed of 7.2 km/h (2 m/s). This gentle pace allows passengers to enjoy the view and ensures a smooth experience. Speed is controlled automatically and can be adjusted to suit operational needs.
Each cabin is designed to carry 6 passengers. The total number of cabins is customizable based on your track length and capacity requirements. A common recommendation is 8 cabins per kilometer of track to optimize throughput and wait times.
The ride features a triple-redundant anti-collision system with millimeter-wave radar, lidar, and track photoelectric limits. In case of power failure or mechanical issues, documented rescue procedures allow full evacuation within 1 hour using trained staff and equipment such as ladders and aerial platforms.

Every ZhipaoRides product is engineered with redundant, fail-safe systems that meet or exceed international amusement ride safety standards. From electrical interlocks to structural redundancy, we leave nothing to chance.
Forced electrical interlocking prevents any unauthorized or unsafe startup. The system requires all safety conditions to be met before operation can begin, eliminating human-error risks.
Three independent door opening safeguards — mechanical lock, electrical sensor, and control system verification — eliminate passenger entrapment risk under all operating conditions.
Dual independent braking mechanisms with fail-safe engagement ensure controlled deceleration even in the event of primary system failure, meeting Class A ride standards.
Continuous sensor-based monitoring of vibration, temperature, and load distribution provides instant anomaly detection and automatic shutdown when parameters exceed safe thresholds.
Integrated auxiliary drive and manual release mechanisms enable safe passenger evacuation from any position, including during power outages or extreme weather conditions.
Non-destructive testing at every production stage — from raw material to final assembly — ensures structural integrity backed by 25-year design life certification.
Our safety systems undergo rigorous third-party testing and certification to meet or exceed GB 8408 (Chinese national standard) and EN 13814 (European standard) requirements. Each ride is equipped with multiple redundant safety mechanisms, ensuring passenger protection at all times. From the factory floor to the final installation site, our engineering team conducts comprehensive safety audits, load tests, and operational simulations before any ride enters service.
