Lower costs
Lower costs over the equipment’s lifetime with a tailored maintenance program that keeps components in good condition and recommends parts replacement based on their actual condition and usage.
Tomorrow's faults solved today
Predictive maintenance for more reliable equipment
Traditional non-connected maintenance is often reactive and responds only after something stops working. Digitally enabled predictive maintenance takes a smarter, proactive approach, meaning fewer breakdowns, faster fixes, longer equipment life, and happier customers.
Smart predictive maintenance for your building
What is predictive maintenance?
Imagine an elevator or escalator that knows when it needs attention – before it ever causes a delay. That’s the power of predictive maintenance. Using real-time data and intelligent analytics, predictive maintenance helps identify potential issues before they become problems. This means fewer unexpected breakdowns, faster service, and happier users. Your elevators stay reliable, safe, and ready – so people can keep moving without interruption.

How does predictive maintenance differ from traditional maintenance?
See the key differences between traditional maintenance and our digitally enabled connected service—making smart, connected maintenance the new standard for safety and peace of mind.
| Traditional non-connected maintenance | KONE digitally enabled predictive maintenance | |
| Planning and monitoring | Follows a fixed schedule based on estimated wear and tear | Uses real-time equipment data to monitor actual usage 24/7 |
| Issue detection | Action only taken before failure if signs are visible | Predictive and proactive, intervention before failure |
| Response speed | Variable, often delayed | Rapid, critical alarms prioritized and addressed without delay |
| Downtime | Longer, unexpected | Significantly reduced, most faults fixed before operation is affected |
| Transparency | Limited information, via reports | Full real-time equipment status and history online |
| Equipment longevity | Standard, no early interventions | Optimized asset life and reliability |
| Costs | Routine replacements and more issues mean higher costs | Lower costs, parts replaced based on actual condition and usage |

Frequently asked questions
Learn more about digitally enabled predictive maintenance with helpful answers to common questions.
-
Predictive maintenance uses real-time monitoring and data analytics to anticipate potential problems and schedule well-timed actions. It combines remote diagnostics with onsite work by technicians to ensure that elevators operate reliably and safely. Compared to conventional reactive maintenance, predictive maintenance improves service outcomes, reduces costs and provides better reporting.
-
Traditional maintenance follows a fixed schedule, replacing parts based on age or wear. Predictive maintenance utilizes usage data and equipment data to spot issues early, to schedule the right actions, thus keeping elevators running longer with fewer disruptions and lower lifetime costs.
-
Predictive maintenance reduces the likelihood and duration of downtime by addressing many issues before they affect service. In KONE’s connected elevator base, outcomes include resolving 80% of issues proactively and reducing downtime by 30%. Actual results vary by site, equipment, connectivity, and market availability. Not all faults can be prevented.
-
Operations and performance data is collected from equipment controllers, inbuilt equipment sensors and from additional sensors for 3rd-party equipment and shared via a secured connection to the IoT cloud services. Innovative AI-based data analytics identifies patterns and early warning signs. The system generates alerts, recommends actions and updates the maintenance plan accordingly. Building managers can see real-time equipment status and service information in KONE’s digital tools. Availability of specific capabilities (for example, KONE Remote Rescue) may vary by equipment, contract and market.
