How it works.
The elevator uses a polycarbonate tube which uses a vacuum pump to generates areas of higher and lower atmospheric pressure within the cylinder hoistway with a vacuum pump. A set of mechanical locks anchor in the elevator when it reaches each floor. The system has built in safety mechanisms to stop a free-fall in the event of a power outage, which allows the elevator to slowly descend to the ground floor.
