On busy construction sites, vertical transport is often a bottleneck. Materials, tools, and personnel need to move quickly and safely between floors, but traditional hoists frequently fail to meet the demands of modern building projects. This is where Smart Lifter technology offers an innovative solution — not only increasing speed, but also improving oversight and safety throughout the construction process.
Intelligent control through algorithms
What sets the Smart Lifter apart is its use of intelligent software. The lift continuously analyzes current calls, occupancy levels, and external conditions. Using so-called “Best Next Floor” algorithms, it calculates the most efficient order of stops. This reduces waiting times for users and significantly limits unnecessary trips.
Ease of use for site workers
The Smart Lifter is operated through simple call buttons or floor displays. The interface is designed with users in mind: intuitive, responsive, and equipped with real-time feedback. The screen can also display live wind alerts, helping employees stay informed of safe lift conditions at all times.
Suitable for all phases of construction
This technology is highly versatile, applicable in both new construction and renovation projects. During the structural phase, the Smart Lifter ensures efficient material transport, while in the finishing phase, speed and reliability for moving people become especially important. The system can be adapted to suit different project stages, making it a flexible tool throughout the entire construction process.
Real-time data and reporting
Thanks to the Smart Lifter, project managers gain access to comprehensive data such as usage frequency, peak times, and idle periods. This information supports progress evaluation, workforce planning, and adjustments in logistics. The system is also compatible with widely used construction software, making it easy to integrate reports into existing workflows.
Efficiency and safety combined
The Smart Lifter proves that automation and safety can go hand in hand. With built-in sensors, live cameras, and automatic alerts for irregularities, the system significantly reduces the risk of incidents. For construction companies, this means fewer delays, more control, and greater productivity.
