- Abstract
The article focuses on how Iowa-based Schumacher Elevator Co. solved elevator problems at Saint Anthony's Regional Hospital in Carroll, Iowa with the use of the electronic valve technology from Bucher Hydraulics. The problem concerns two elevators at the hospital which tend to experience overheating of oil, requiring the need to reset mechanical valves. Schumacher Elevator opted to install and commission valves from Bucher Hydraulics in one of the elevators which took two days. The valve conversion is said to have led to an improvement in ride quality.
