  • Abstract
    The basic control loop for modern gearless high-speed elevators is discussed from the standpoint of a high-gain feedback control system. New transducers provide a rapid and smooth dynamic response. Accurate floor leveling is obtained by conversion from a velocity to a position-regulating system near the floor. Outstanding system performance has been demonstrated in tests of full-scale installations
