ThyssenKrupp MULTI

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

MULTI is the first cable-less elevator developed by ThyssenKrupp. Rather than using cables to lift the elevator, MULTI uses linear motors.[1] As well as moving vertically between floors of a building, MULTI can also move horizontally through a floor of a building. MULTI is being tested at Rottweil Test Tower.[2][3]

History[edit]

The system was installed inside a test tower in 2017.[4]
