Wire rope is a very complex machinery element which primary function is
the transmission of tensile forces. Its basic constructional design allows
repeated changes in the direction of pull through reeving systems incorporating
drums and sheaves.
General purpose rope constructions are standardized in national (ASTM, CSA)
and international standards (ISO).
However, the increasing demand for higher breaking strength, greater flexibility,
better rotation resistance, and extended rope life cannot be met by such
general purpose rope constructions.
The discrepancy between expectation and operating 'reality' has led to the
development of PYTHON® High Performance rope constructions which, amongst
other features, offer significantly improved operating life. This has been
achieved through adaptation of engineered rope geometry and purpose designed
manufacturing processes.
WDI,
located in Germany, has taken a leading role in the development of High
Performance PYTHON® Wire Rope as further described in this web-site. |
