Ibex Elevator Motion Management Solutions
It’s windy. Your building and your elevators should be communicating.
Ibex is an elevator motion management system that connects building motion data directly to elevator control decisions in tall buildings. Created by RWDI, it gives operators and suppliers real-time structural intelligence to keep cars running safely on windy days, eliminating operational guesswork.
Ibex is an RWDI company, translating five decades of global high-rise wind engineering criteria into real-time, elevator decisions.
Your reputation doesn't pause for the weather.
Your tenants don’t stop because it’s windy, neither should your elevators. Ibex gives building owners real-time structural motion data to maintain consistent service and the premium experience your building is known for, allowing you to make confident decisions with verified evidence of exactly how it performed.

Without precise building motion data, every bid carries a buffer and every maintenance contract carries risk. Ibex gives elevator OEMs access to as-built motion measurement, translated into elevator control logic, to specify exact counterweights, activate thresholds with confidence, and safeguard project profitability and equipment integrity across the life of a contract.

The engineering behind Ibex.
The software logic inside Ibex is derived from five decades of structural dynamics expertise applied to more than half of the entire global inventory of tall buildings, including the Burj Khalifa, the Shanghai Tower, and the Merdeka 118.
Ibex was created by Motioneering, the building-motion specialists within RWDI who have managed sway across more than 300 tall assets worldwide over a 25-year track record.
