KONE to provide free sensor-enabled tech to minimise elevator breakdown at hospitals
Elevator maker KONE India offers free cloud technology to keep critical sites such as hospitals operational in enough time of crisis.
KONE Elevators India, a subsidiary of KONE Corporation, said the 24x7 Connected Services is an intelligent elevator and escalator service that monitors its equipment round-the-clock. The technology can predict problems and do something before a breakdown, ensuring less equipment downtime and fewer faults.
It is being offered to existing KONE hospital clients free of charge for an interval of six months.
The company said it really is absolutely critical that elevators or escalators run smoothly without any setbacks. The 24x7 Connected Services is a cloud-based solution using sensors which collects data on equipment performance and powerful analytics to recognize deviations. Using the most recent technology, the elevators and escalators identify the necessity for maintenance and alert the technician immediately.
This would ensure uninterrupted flow of movement of medical staff, patients, and families at medical facilities.
“KONE’s cutting-edge 24x7 Connected Services available these days free of charge to current customers who operate medical facilities,” company MD Amit Gossain said.
