USE OF ROBOTS IN THE ELEVATOR INDUSTRY

Until recently, elevators consisted of only mechanical and electrical systems with cabins pulled by ropes or pushed hydraulically. In today's digital age, elevators that incorporate technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), cloud systems, machine learning, augmented reality, and big data analytics are getting smarter than we have ever imagined. Starting to switch to the "smart production" model in production lines and elevator installation, the industry has started to work with robots in elevator installation, albeit it is not common, in areas that threaten human health such as welding lines, powder coating facilities, on objectives such as productivity increase, quality measurement, cost analysis.

Since the Covid-19 virus was declared to be a global pandemic by the World Health Organization, the world has been struggling with all its might to prevent both the health and the economic crisis from deepening. In this situation, it has been felt more deeply that digital transformation and technology investment is necessary in all areas of life, especially in production. On the one hand, intensive technology is used to control the epidemic, detect, monitor, protect and treat infected people, while on the other hand, technology is also coming to the forefront in terms of meeting economic and social needs in the face of lifestyle changes caused by the epidemic.

Forcing people to work from their homes, the pandemic has deepened the dependence on services from the tech industry's largest companies while accelerating their tendency to take advantage of the same.

Many companies have required their personnel to work remotely. They provided their employees with computing and video technology in order to work remotely. Firms operating in the field of production have also turned to the "smart production" model not to disrupt their production in extraordinary situations, but to strengthen their place in global competition.

High technology, which is used extensively in sectors such as automotive, defense industry, shipbuilding, energy, has started to take its place in the elevator sector, as well, albeit it is not common.

In the industry, the robots are used in areas such as welding processes of standard body parts and elevator rails, in sheet metal forming processes, press feeding, press brake bending, material handling, powder painting.

Robotic systems lead to loyal customers for their users in the elevator industry through with high quality and competitive solutions in terms of product quality and productivity.
