I've always thought that the button panels on modern Schindlers don't look quite right - this explains why, the design has been altered for UK installations. With touchscreens being very commonplace now, it would be interesting to see a lift that uses such technology for the button panels. It would mean that button panels wouldn't have to be "made to order", and keypads could be integrated without the need for external units.
Some 3300s do actually pre-door. The brakes are quite quiet, and as a result, it is quite difficult to tell. But if you listen carefully, if you can hear the brakes then the lift does not pre door. But if you can't because the doors are opening and making to much noise for you to hear them then it does pre-door.
Meanwhile older 5400APs were known for loud brakes that could be heard even when the doors were opening, which was a problem as 1 of them had its top floor's lift lobby right in the middle of 1 of my university's quiet study areas
@@lzh4950 Older 3300s are known for their noisy motor (-fans). Stayed at a (older) hotel with a 2016 Schindler 3300. Slept in the room behind the elevator and woke up at 8am every morning to some old grannies using the elevator to go to breakfast...
Or overlay the capacitive buttons with a tactile texture/Braille made of transparent material e.g. plastic, like what was done with some D-Line buttons in my country (before they're replaced with STEP generic ones during modernisation (the lifts now run slightly smoother but doors take longer to open, while the cab's design was unchanged))
if you look on the door drive box there is a button that u can press labelled as test which allows u to open and close car doors via that button ,anywhere in the shaft
There's another Schindler 3300 with capacitive buttons in the National Library of Latvia in Riga. It goes from the basement to the ground floor. Also, there are two really nice Schindler EuroLifts that go up to floor 7. You need to pay 1-2 euros to access the upper floors.
My friend has one of these elevators in his house in Munich. These buttons are awesome! (And there are even more of them than in this video, as it's a six-story house xD)
I think it they don't think there safe because if you wear to get stuck and there a fault with the button that you can't call for assistants i think that why
I saw a Schindler Capacitive button lift in Hong Kong, It's very scary if you dare to look down from the lift (It's famous and high speed and there is ALOT of touch sensitive Schindler M-Series)
Touch-sensitive buttons makes sense in areas where hygiene is more important too e.g. food factories, hospitals since you no longer need a physical mechanism & crevices to let the button be depressed, which create more areas where dirt & germs can be trapped in. Though capacitive technology may not work with gloves, which I guess many users in such areas will be wearing), so maybe resistive technology is needed instead
The Original Roblox Fan Club - ROBLOX That might mess up the capacitive touch sensors. They could mold braille into the glass pannel but that would mean having to make custom glass for each lift.
I wish they would let lift companies have capacitive buttons...on the condition that when you press the button,the lift will tell you what floor you pressed. REALLY BAD.
uhh, beno, look a little bit closer. The capacitive buttons might have buttons up to floor 10 which are not lit, and very hard to see. That was based in my experience in my country.
I just looked up the capital of Albania and it doesn't appear to have a metro system or even a tram system. Is it worth me coming to Albania? Is there lots of old stuff to see?
@@benolifts Sorry I'm a bit late. If you want to come and have a look at old elevators/lifts, it's not worth it. Back in the time of communism we didn't have any. But if you want to come and have a look at old abandoned things I think it's worth it. We have a big abandoned rail system that goes through the country (I think we even have one of the biggest rail bridges in the area. It's close to Korca) Small parts of the system still work in Elbasan and they all are Soviet era trains. Most of the rail still exist and the first ever train to go on them is on display. We have tons of abandoned factories. Some of them have had their equipment stolen during the civil war, but all of them are there (Elbasan, Valias, Lac etc). You can even see them clearly from the airplane if you know them. We have two huge atomic era bunkers that have been rebuilt and communist era spies HQ in Tirana. There are tons of old buildings outside of Tirana and a LOT of abandoned ones from the civil war (1997), although you do have to look for them. In Korca we have the first high rise buildings from the 70's and the first "modern" buildings of the time. Since Albania is undergoing a big urbanisation, we have tons of high cranes for you to climb and construction sites. To be honest no one really cares if you climb cranes at night (no police or anything), just don't do it at daytime because it might be taken as a suicide threat. If police catches you usually nothing happens. I'd generally avoid Tirana for abandoned stuff unless you want to see the first Albanian train and the above mentioned bunkers. Keep in mind that to find a lot of these abandoned buildings and rails you will have to ask as there is no online info. Thanks for the great content!
Capacitive buttons are banned on UK? Waaat! Well, I can imagine various reasons why normal pushbuttons would be more common than capacitive buttons, but a ban? What is the idea of banning these?
Uplifting PostTower All new lifts in the UK have to comply with DDA, which is why capacitive buttons. Old buildings (amd excisting lifts) do not have to conform to DDA but have to make reasonable adjustments to help disabled people. This means doing small things that will help such as adding a disabled height pannel and voice to a lift. Or making sure staff are about to help people, or having a call button to call staff. Small generic lift companys often misquote the DDA to force building owners into modernizing their lifts, even thought the DDA does not require existing lifts to exactly meet the strict rules of new lifts. The thing that make me the most cross is when generic lift companys replace an old buttons with a Dewhurst pannel in the same place as the old buttons. They are supposed to put the new buttons at disabled height, replacing the old buttons helps nobody. Also I am fed up of unnecessary VF mods of classic lifts.
+BlackpoolTransport ROBLOX I had already verified it. I was playing around with it before I turned on the lights before I started filming. I would never go on top a lift without verifying. What I was getting worried about is people making "how to" videos. Telling people step by step instructions which people can copy, especially when they get the instructions wrong. I do not make "how to" videos, and my videos shouldn't be considered as a guide for people to copy. But I know that there are some people who will copy this and I am getting worried about it.
If there is one thing I like about the 3300... It is the button panel in the lift looks really nice. With the capacitive buttons it looks amazing. It is annoying that the buttons have been banned in the UK.
First it is 💣 then it's 🔫 and then 🔪 then 🚬 in buildings then 🗡 which I understand but now it's THE SCHINDLER 3300 LIFT I WANT TO FILM WHAT A RIP OFF NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
