Because the machine is installed within the hoistway, there are far fewer restrictions on building design. Architects and interior designers have more design freedom than ever before.
More Architectural Freedom
Architects, builders, and even interior designers will appreciate the new design freedom that comes with the machine-room-less system. A machine room is no longer needed, as all machineries successfully fit into the hoistway, except the control panel, which can be placed wherever you like within a 98 feet 5 inches (30 meters) radius from the traction machine. Also, the load stress of our conventional elevator with a machine room applies on the building structure, whereas the guide rails of DIAMOND TRAC support as much as approx. 75% of the stress, for building friendliness.

Machine Room Removed for Space Saving
The miniaturization of the traction machine, leading to the development of the gearless traction machine with PM motor enables a hoistway to include in the upper section the driving devices that were installed in a machine room. Besides that, the square area of the hoistway is almost the same as our conventional elevator, contributing to space saving in your building. All you have to think about in your planning now is a hoistway only*.
*NEC 2003 Article 620-71 and ASME A17.1 2004 - A17.a-2005 Rule 2.7.6 stipulate that an elevator control panel must be installed outside the hoistway and thereby a separate room is required for control panels.
Miniaturized and Optimally Configured
Mitsubishi Electric has succeeded in miniaturizing key elevator equipment. The gearless traction machine with PM motor is installed within the hoistway. This arrangement frees up space normally required for separate machine rooms or penthouses. Equipment is configured for easy maintenance from car top, and the entire compact system is optimally organized for performance and service. |
