Today, buildings are growing taller and wider, and much faster. For the first time in history, a robot can execute installation steps autonomously while improving working conditions: our revolutionary robotic installation system, Schindler R.I.S.E.
We invited The B1M, the world's largest video channel for construction, to visit Schindler R.I.S.E at the job site of Schneewittchen, a stunning residential tower built in Vienna.
Our fitters are relieved from monotonous and physically demanding tasks.
The robot can operate around the clock, setting a new standard for installation speed.
Schindler R.I.S.E prepares the shaft with an accuracy that matches or even exceeds traditional methods.
Once in the shaft, the robot operates fully autonomously, and all data can be monitored remotely.
Innovations on construction site can generate positive PR opportunities for projects.
New technologies contribute to making the job more appealing, helping to attract and retain talents.
Our Schindler R.I.S.E system can complete a floor - drilling and setting the anchor bolts required for landing doors, divider beams and wall brackets - much faster than conventional installation methods. A camera is mounted onto the platform to allow remote viewing, but the system operates independently; no operator is required.
Once installed in the elevator shaft, the autonomous Schindler R.I.S.E operates around the clock until all anchor bolts are installed. For quality control and support, a Schindler R.I.S.E Operator remains on site for the duration of the installation.
With Schindler R.I.S.E, the installation team is relieved of the physically demanding, repetitive, and time-consuming tasks of drilling and setting anchor bolts, improving safety in a taxing work environment.
Schindler R.I.S.E has now been successfully deployed on numerous construction sites around the world. Not only has it impressed customers and colleagues alike with its unprecedented speed and accuracy; it has also drastically improved working conditions for our staff. It is innovation at its best.

Schindler R.I.S.E complements other digitization solutions in the tall building industry, such as Building Information Modeling (BIM). With Schindler R.I.S.E, the robot can receive data directly from the digital building model.
This ensures the bolts are placed exactly according to the layout and removes the need for manual and error-prone data transfer to construction workers.
Information and data from each step of the installation is recorded and automatically exchanged in the digital model of the building for later reference in the construction and maintenance phases of the project.
