When conducting ascending and descending experiments outdoors to verify the performance of space elevator climbers, it is not possible to accurately evaluate the performance of the space elevator climber because it is not possible to conduct the experiments under uniform conditions due to weather and other factors. In addition, long-distance and endurance tests are difficult to conduct due to the limited lifting and lowering distance. In this study, we will develop an indoor lifting and lowering test apparatus capable of long-distance lifting and lowering tests to solve the above problems.
