Wire ropes
Ropes made of steel wire are among the most highly loaded elements in the area of lifting and hoisting technology. The distribution of the load across numerous individual wires guarantees the greatest operational safety. They can withstand high operating speeds with ease. They are also convincing with their quiet running and an efficient ratio between their own weight and carrying capacity – and not least of all, due to economic advantages. Apart from wear through normal operation and weather-dependent corrosion, wire ropes are not subject to any significant losses of strength. Moreover, they are maintenance friendly and their functionality is easy to monitor. What is not easy is making the correct choice: Different areas of application or operating conditions require careful specification.
