TK Elevator introduces HELIX: the new, digitally native member of its Dynamic High-Rise family

  • Digital-first single deck platform engineered to optimize uptime, availability and energy efficiency.
  • Powered by people-centered AI and data-driven decision making, it reaches a new level in dynamic traffic performance and service management.
  • HELIX complements TKE’s Dynamic High-Rise portfolio, alongside solutions such as TWIN, DOUBLE DECK, Shaft Climber.

Düsseldorf (Germany), March 11, 2026 – TK Elevator (TKE), a global leader in vertical transportation, announces HELIX, a new high speed, single deck high rise elevator platform. Digitally native and AI enabled, HELIX leverages data driven decision making to deliver dynamic traffic performance and advanced service management. For predictive maintenance, the TKE MAX offering, which monitors system health and proactively recommends service actions, is embedded natively.

As part of TKE’s new Dynamic High-Rise portfolio designed to elevate uptime, availability, and energy efficiency, HELIX integrates seamlessly with the digitally native EOX platform for low and mid rise buildings, enabling optimal elevator configurations for complex and mix-use high-rise buildings.

Smart, secure and AI-driven
Throughout its entire lifecycle, HELIX leverages cloud connectivity and integrated AI, while maintaining rigorous cybersecurity compliance. The platform supports open API integration with building platforms (Building Management Systems, access control, and security) for scalable benefits as tenant needs evolve. Cloud-based updates keep the system continuously updated without new hardware as HELIX integrates TKE’s MAX digital solutions.

AGILE Dispatcher (AI inside)
HELIX also includes TK Elevator’s smart AGILE Dispatcher for next-generation flow management. With AI-driven destination controls, its algorithms are designed to learn, adjust, and react intelligently, instantly adapting controllers and call allocation logic to keep passenger journeys smooth and predictable. By enabling elevators to respond dynamically to new situations, it helps to increase uptime and availability and optimize energy efficiency.

The ultimate passenger experience
HELIX optimizes journeys with heightened efficiency, reliability, and AI coordination for superior ride comfort. AGILE Infotainment multimedia screens display customized content, while a range of entrance, finish, and accessory options enable personalization and design consistency across elevator systems.

Efficient and eco-friendly
HELIX is also engineered for optimal ownership experience with reliable performance and reduced running costs. AI features and three energy modes enable adaptive performance that uses energy more efficiently. Regenerative drive technology captures energy from breaking and feeds it back into the building grid for more sustainable operations.

Dynamic High-Rise: build beyond limits
Dynamic High-Rise portfolio is TKE´s tailored elevator and escalator solutions suite coupled with specialized project support from the High-Rise Competence Center. Integrated as one solution, Dynamic High-Rise offers extensive design flexibility and customized system configurations, enabling TKE to define the optimal mobility strategy for each project.
