Elevator Controller System
FY 2020-21 · 2020-04-01
Summary
Develop a single world wide accepted and compliant elevator/home lift controller for all drive and elevator types in our market segment. Currently our controllers vary in design and age since development, we experience parts sourcing issues as technology advances. Each controller design was developed to meet the requirements of a specific drive system or regional specifications. Our technical support is strictly based on on phone conversations relying on a technician to be on site in every instance. Our production costs are high based on volume and component price. A new universal controller would be designed to eliminate these production and market issues.

Description (French)
Mettre au point un contrôleur d'ascenseur/ascenseur domestique unique, accepté et conforme dans le monde entier, pour tous les types d'entraînement et d'ascenseur de notre segment de marché. Actuellement, nos contrôleurs varient en termes de conception et d'âge; depuis leur conception, nous connaissons des problèmes d'approvisionnement en pièces détachées au fur et à mesure des progrès technologiques. Chaque contrôleur a été conçu pour répondre aux exigences d'un système d'entraînement particulier ou à des caractéristiques régionales. Notre support technique est strictement basé sur des conversations téléphoniques et sur la présence d'un technicien sur place dans chaque cas. Nos coûts de production sont élevés en fonction du volume et du prix des composantes. Un nouveau contrôleur universel serait conçu pour éliminer ces problèmes de production et de marché.
