Practical laboratory sessions play a crucial role in engineering education focused on real-world applications. The main aim of this paper is to design and experimentally test a laboratory bench for the remote control of an electromechanical elevator installation, taking into account modern automation, digitalisation, and web technologies. The key contributions of this research include: identifying and implementing the technical aspects of web-based control of electromechanical objects; developing software for the remote control of the laboratory bench; and expanding and implementing an extended range of functionalities. The research findings were obtained through experimental testing of the developed system under laboratory conditions. The scientific novelty of the results lies in the synthesis of structural and algorithmic support for a web-based system for the remote control of a laboratory electromechanical elevator installation, which, unlike the known ones, provides a comprehensive consideration of functional and non-functional requirements for the optimized performance of experimental studies in real time. The practical significance of the study is demonstrated through the physical implementation of both software and hardware for web-based control of a laboratory electromechanical elevator installation, which allows to increase the efficiency of practical training in education and applied engineering research, offering valuable experience for future work in real production conditions. The findings of this research are relevant for scientists, researchers, engineers, and students working in the field of electromechanical and automated systems, and related fields.
