Development of wire rope solutions for mechanical power transmission
Our rope development of application-specific wire rope solutions is designed to fulfil specific and complex requirements that go far beyond standard solutions. Our wire rope solutions meet the requirements of a dynamic, technology-orientated world. With a deep understanding of technical challenges, we develop innovative and functional solutions for mechanical power transmission that do not yet exist - special ropes that are tailored precisely to your needs.
Thanks to their small dimensions, fine wire ropes reliably transmit mechanical forces even in the tightest of spaces. Ropes are flexible, have a high load-bearing capacity and can therefore withstand strong bending cycles. Wire rope solutions can be used at different temperatures, heat or cold, as well as in environments with heavy soiling or with cleanliness requirements, e.g. in the medical sector. In order to optimally utilise these properties and achieve a long service life, the material and rope construction are optimally adapted to the respective application. Wire ropes can also be made up into ready-to-install solutions, individually configured for specific functions or processed into the finest tools. This versatility enables the development of ever new products.
We support you with our expertise and develop your rope solution together with you.
Development process for customised special ropes
Wire ropes as a solution for mechanical power transmission
Many engineers and developers are looking for efficient ways to transfer mechanical energy in their projects.
Wire ropes are an often underestimated but extremely versatile solution for transmitting mechanical energy.
Why wire ropes may be the best choice for your application?
If you are developing an application where mechanical forces need to be transmitted efficiently, reliably and over long distances, wire ropes are often the optimal solution. Their low weight, flexibility and high tensile strength and load-bearing capacity make them superior to other mechanical transmission systems. Our company specialises in the development and manufacture of customised wire rope solutions that are perfectly tailored to your specific requirements.
We support you from conception to realisation and offer you solutions that are not only efficient, but also economical and durable.
Advantages of wire ropes as a means of mechanical force transmission
Types of power transmission
Power transmission is a fundamental principle in engineering that is used in a variety of applications to transport energy from a source to a target. There are several main types of power transmission:
Mechanical power transmission
Mechanical power transmission uses physical elements such as gears, shafts, chains, belts or ropes. This method is particularly effective in the transmission of torques and linear forces and is used in many machines and devices. Mechanical systems offer direct, reliable and robust solutions that are crucial for applications where high precision and durability are required.
Other power transmissions
In addition to mechanical power transmission, there is also hydraulic, pneumatic and electrical power transmission, in which fluids, compressed air or electrical currents are used to transmit energy. These methods offer specialised solutions for precise control and high efficiency in specific applications such as automation, industrial systems and modern devices.
Customised rope solutions for complex requirements
Every technical project brings its own challenges. For this reason, we do not offer universal solutions, but develop products that are precisely customised to your specific requirements. Our expertise ranges from current-conducting ropes for highly specific applications to bowden cables for tight installation spaces and wire ropes made from special materials such as tungsten. We work closely with you to ensure that your specific needs are met.
