Abstract
An elevator is a vertical transportation system designed to efficiently move people and goods between the floors of a building. Conventional elevators operate using electric motors, traction cables with counterweight systems, or hydraulic mechanisms that pump fluid to raise a piston. They are also widely used for transporting materials in factories, warehouses, and mines. However, traditional elevator systems present several disadvantages: they occupy large floor areas, require frequent repairs and regular maintenance, and face operational challenges in high-rise structures. This study aims to address these limitations by replacing conventional mechanical systems with an electromagnetic propulsion mechanism. The proposed design utilizes electromagnets aligned along the elevator shaft walls and permanent magnets attached to the cabin. By controlling the polarity of the electromagnets, a synchronized push-pull force is generated to enable smooth vertical movement of the cabin. The report includes the design methodology, analysis of key influencing factors, force calculations, and the detailed design of critical components.
