As a leading international provider of vertical transportation solutions, Hitachi Elevator combines its century-old manufacturing with artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things to provide efficient and professional solutions for high-rise buildings, of which the double-car elevator is outstanding.
Urban landmark complex project has large traffic flow and usage. Therefore, the conventional way to improve the efficiency is to increase the number of elevator hoistway, but a large number of hoistway squeezes the building space. A double-car elevator can transport approximately doublethe number of people compared with the single car while reducing the number of hoistway in the building, improving both transport efficiency and building utilization.
