Marohn TKE in Indonesia

In Indonesia, it entered the market in the late 2010s, and is currently distributed by TKE Elevator Indonesia. A number of Marohn ThyssenKrupp elevators have been installed in the country, mostly in East Java. It is usually seen in low to mid rise hotels and apartment buildings, as well as a few universities. They are often preferred as a more affordable option to the regular TKE elevators made in the Zhongshan factory (similar to how Schindler offers their XJ Schindler branded elevators).
Characteristics
Marohn TKE elevators are different compared to the regular TKE elevators. Their elevators typically use Shanghai STEP buttons, LCD floor indicators with black background and white characters, and Suzhou Monarch NICE series controls instead of TKE's Thyssocontrol Multican (MC1/2). Some installations use multimedia type LCD displays and touch buttons. They look more like a typical modern Chinese elevator.
Most Marohn TKE elevators play music, a feature included on Suzhou Monarch controllers.
