PodChats for FutureIoT: Future of connected mobility

The global elevators and escalators market is forecast to reach US$83 billion in 2022. Despite the initial setbacks arising from the pandemic, demand for inter-floor transporter is projected to rise on the back of investments in commercial and residential infrastructure projects globally. With elevators representing 2-7% of the total energy consumed in a building, there is significant scope for improvement regarding energy consumption.With maintenance and modernisation of existing equipment expected to exhibit significant growth over time, manufacturers are also focusing on value-added services.Elevator maintenance or elevator preventive maintenance is one of the major tasks involved in elevator service. It involves ensuring that no accidents or breakdowns happen on elevators. Elevator maintenance helps avoid major replacements and it prolongs the life of elevatorsIn today’s PodChats for FutureIoT, we are joined by Birgitta Van den Driessche, TK Elevator’s Product and Marketing Director, APAC1.       What is new about elevators (particularly since 2020)? – new in terms of features, rider expectations and operator preferences.2.       How is elevator maintenance conducted? 3.       Given that elevators tend to be operated manually often by passengers, how do you ensure minimal disruption to operations?4.       Talk to us about the impact of data-driven building operations on passenger experience (access control, infotainment, elevator dispatching, etc.)5.       How has IoT influenced/changed preventive/predictive maintenance of elevators? 6.       Can you compare traditional and cloud-based elevator maintenance?7.       Can you share future development and benefits of building operation platforms (smart maintenance, real-time monitoring, emergency-call, etc.)?8.       What does TK Elevator bring to the elevator marketplace?
