Further, lack of periodic checks from the government authorities and poor maintenance of elevators is one of the major reasons for these accidents.To put a stop to such fatal incidents Elevator makers in India are lobbying for a uniform Lift Act across the country. SMART ELEVATOR TECHNOLOGYThere is growing demand for high-speed, high-capacity, smart elevators that can carry many passengers at once, safely and comfortably, particularly in high-rise office buildings, commercial complexes, and other large-scale facilities. One popular smart elevator feature is destination selection control (DSC), for which passengers enter their destination floor on input terminals in the lift lobby. Each passenger is then assigned to a specific lift which would take him or her to the respective destination floor in the shortest time with a minimal number of intermediate stops. Compared to conventional elevator control systems, DSC increases passenger handling capacity by up to 30 percent, minimizes passengers' travel times to their destination and reduces crowding in lift lobbies. DSC also allows for much more flexibility in elevator grouping, lift core layouts and overall building design.For example, TWIN, our fast and energy-efficient innovative elevator system, comes equipped with intelligent traffic control, which optimises traffic automatically and reduces empty runs. This state-of-the-art system has two cabs running independently in the same shaft, each with its own counterweight, safety and drive equipment. With reduced shaft core space and construction costs, the TWIN elevator system offers the most flexible elevator solution with an eco-conscious heart. TK Elevator, MULTI, was introduced with innovation as a key objective in mind to cater for the needs of modern architectural designs. MULTI is a breakthrough technology which harnesses the power of linear motor technology to move multiple cars in a single shaft both vertically and horizontally, without the limitation of traditional rope-driven systems. Smart elevators can also detect employees of companies based on their IDs and assign them to elevators to reduce wait and travel time. Elevators can utilize touchless summoning and multi-carriage systems for time management. Smart elevators can use the cloud to improve travel speed and comfort and also to analyse performance and alert staff when maintenance is needed. Elevators can be monitored remotely to reduce downtime.Adaptability is crucial. Smart elevators need to interact with the people, systems and external elements
