First-class Elevator Drives

KEB builds solutions for specific applications. The F5 Elevator Drive is tested, proven, and the go-to choice for many industry professionals.

Introduced in the early 2000s and with over 100,000 units installed worldwide, the F5 Drive continues to deliver a smooth, reliable elevator ride from residential homes to large high-speed high-rise buildings.

Investments in user-friendly technology enable users to program drives conveniently and save money. The KEB Elevator App allows users to create and edit parameters and view real-time diagnostics via smartphones. The R6 Regenerative Drive returns energy to the building power instead of being dissipated as wasted heat, helping some customers reduce energy by up to 80%!
