  • Yes, if Kone made hydraulics again, just like Otis, Schindler, and ThyssenKrupp, they should have holeless and roped hydraulic, with biodegradeable fluid, and I'm cool with that.

  • That's correct.

  • Yes, that's because the low rise MRL elevators serve 6 floors, whereas the mid rise series serve 7-20 floors.

  • No, they are still working on the east elevators, and then they will work on the wast elevators. So I'm thinking they will be done around early or so of 2010.

  • I'm with ThyssenKrupp on saving the Hydraulic Elevator. Using Biodegradable oil w/ Roped/Holeless Hydraulic is the way to go!

  • Very interesting, and now Otis has another hydraulic division called CemcoLift.

  • no, Esco was a hydraulic division of Otis, and then otis just got rid of the esco name but kept making elevators that were esco-style

  • Sounds like it was low on oil when it was leveling at 6.

  • if they went with ThyssenKrupp Synergy, it would probably be the M series

  • are they done modernizing yet?
