Overview of The Multi Elevator System
A new era of mobility in buildings Imagine increasing elevator capacity and optimizing traffic while reducing the system's weight and footprint. Imagine freeing tall building design from the constraints imposed by conventional elevators . That's what we've done with MULTI , the world's first rope-free elevator . By moving multiple cars in a single shaft vertically and horizontally, MULTI ...
Protect passengers TK Elevator fully complies with the meticulous procedures of Functional Safety Management in cooperation with some of the most well-established certifying institutes. Each MULTI car employs a multi -step braking system that ensures passenger safety, whether traveling up, down, left or right.
The Future of Elevators Has Gone Sideways
The MULTI system by ThyssenKrupp is a ropeless elevator capable of both vertical and horizontal movement within a building. (Image: TK Elevator ) For so long, advances in vertical transportation have centered on speed. How fast can the elevator get you to the top floor of a 60-story building without making riders feel like they are on a ...
ThyssenKrupp has built a model of its Multi ropeless elevator system that allows multiple elevators to travel in the same shaft.

Safety is ensured by the multi propulsion and braking systems in the cabins, and the well-proven safety control system developed by thyssenkrupp for the TWIN elevator technology prevents cabins from getting too close to each other inside the shafts.
The development team for the omnidirectional MULTI elevator are confident their system will enable architects to offer more floorspace in their designs thanks to a reduction in the number of lift shafts within any building. Traditional elevators work by balancing a loaded lift car within a shaft with a counterweight attached by a rope or cable. When the elevator car rises the counterweight ...
The MULTI Elevator System
Discover how ThyssenKrupp's MULTI elevator system , a cable-less design with linear motors, could reshape skyscraper design, offering vertical and horizontal movement for a new era of architecture
The innovative transport system uses less power and can shuttle passengers in record time. Courtesy Thyssenkrupp With multiple cabs running in a single shaft, the MULTI reduces wait times from several minutes to only 15 to 30 seconds per lift. The MULTI also minimizes elevators' footprints because it requires fewer shafts.
