The World's Fastest Elevator

Abstract

A high-speed and comfortable riding elevator with ultra-super-high speed of a world maximum speed 1010m/min has been developed. The elevator safety device, which bears the high temperature exceeding 1000℃ by working emergency safety device, was developed and acquired the twin drive control technique for driving a powerful traction machine. An atmospheric pressure control has also been developed in the riding comfort for a high-rise building. Corresponding to increase skyscrapers, the analysis of a rope vibration by the simulation made to accomplish the vibration-control system. These high-tech-items lead to the elevator in the Taipei financial center building of 508m high.
