A drive system for escalators having steps or moving walkways having pallets includes at least one drive motor. A drive chain is driven by the drive motor and is comprised of a plate link chain. The drive chain has such a pitch that a maximum of two links are used for each step or pallet. A mechanism for minimizing a polygon effect which occurs during entry and reversing of the chain at a reversing element includes at least one device for actuating one of the drive motor, the reversing elements or the drive chain with a non-constant rotational speed or velocity.
