Tuesday, 29 April 2025 ()
MORRISTOWN, N.J., April 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Schindler Elevator Corporation, a leading provider of elevators, escalators and moving walks, announces the launch of the Schindler 5000 – a machine-room-less (MRL) elevator designed for low- to mid-rise offices, hotels, hospitals, apartment complexes, and more.Available in most US markets, the Schindler 5000 advances Schindler’s MRL offering with taller cars, larger entrances, load capacities up to 5,000 lb., and travel speeds up to 350 feet per minute (fpm), all while requiring less building space.
The Schindler 5000 is a leader in energy-efficient machine room-less elevators in North America, as evidenced by annual energy consumption data reported in Environmental Product Declarations (EPD). It comes equipped with Schindler’s innovative regenerative drive system that reduces energy consumption by up to 30%, along with LED lighting and an automatic sleep mode to conserve power when the elevator is not in use.
The elevator is readily enabled for the Building IoT (Internet of Things) portfolio of services, which allows connection to a range of digital options. This connectivity provides building owners and managers with the comprehensive tools needed to enhance operational efficiency and reduce equipment downtime, keeping tenants and visitors moving seamlessly.
The Schindler 5000’s optimized design minimizes building interfaces through multiple intelligently-designed components. The Door Frame Cabinet (DFC) consolidates the control, inspection and test panel, transfer switch, connectivity hub, and electrical disconnects into one easy-to-access assembly. Additionally, the Suspension Traction Media (STM) further saves shaft space with a 70% smaller motor and traction sheaves compared to traditional systems.
“Our vision extends beyond mere transportation; we aim to offer the smartest and most efficient mobility solutions for building owners, architects, general contractors, and the general public,” says Ray Bisson, CEO, Schindler Elevator Corporation. “The Schindler 5000 was developed with a future-ready design that meets the demands of today and anticipates the needs of tomorrow. It takes our proven machine-room-less technology to new levels by enhancing building space utilization and providing a comfortable and safe ride for passengers.”
