The 5th European Lift Congress organized by The Technical Academy of Heilbronn will take place in Heilbronn on October 9 and 10, 2012. Kerem Kuleli from Wittur will present a lecture about the development of MDS range of lift doors.
The event will be led by Dr. Gerhard Schiffner, and it is supported the European Lift Association ELA, the German Manufacturers’ Associations VDMA and VFA as well as the Association of Technical Inspectorate Agencies VdTÜV.
This year’s Congress will be focusing on lift regulations, on sustainability, safety and technical innovation. Visitors will have the opportunity to obtain the latest information on the planned revision of the Lift Directive and on the first practical experience with the new Machinery Directive. There will be in-depth reporting on the on-going revision of EN 81-1 and EN 81-2, of particular interest given the anticipated availability of the revised draft standards in the autumn of 2012.
On the subject of sustainability, participants will have the chance to hear the results of the E4 project concluded in the spring and the consequences for implementation of energy saving potential in the lift industry; moreover, presentations about the EU project on the achievement of accessibility for all are scheduled.
The planned contributions about safety and technical innovation will be dealing with such wide-ranging topics as systems designed to prevent unintended movement at lift stops, advanced control technology, new developments in the field of suspension systems and energy-saving lift systems.
You are welcome to meet Wittur at the 5th European Lift Congress in Heilbronn on October 9th and 10th!
