Site of OTIS, the only name I know in lifts (elevators). The pages on spare parts and maintenance may come in useful for the rest of your translation, depedning on how technical it is. Their replacement parts are supplied by Unitec, an Otis affiliate. By the way, the Autocad drawings on this site will no doubt help with other terms if needed. They are clear and well-labelled. They’ve even done a glossary for you, although it’s not that detailed!
