Austrian Ministry approves our rope tester for visual rope inspection!
Since October 2013 our magnetic rope testing system "MiSS Inspector" may be used for control purposes on Austrian ropeways instead of monthly visual rope inspection. Our MiSS rope testing device has been successfully used for that purpose by various Austrian ropeway operators for the last two years.
Here are the main advantages of our system compared to traditional visual rope inspection:
- Huge saving in time (at least 23 man hours per season for a rope of 3,5 km length).
- Enormous increase of inspection quality through cross section control (most wire breaks are on the inside of the rope and could not be detected by simple visual inspection).
- Our testing system is completely independent of weather, rope surface or light. Snow, ice, darkness or dirty ropes will no longer be a problem.
We will be glad to visit your ropeway site for a presentation of our testing device. If you wish so we will execute a compulsory monthly inspection on this occasion.
