Magnetic rope testing:
State-of-the-art technology for non-destructive rope inspection in the digital age.
Rope testing 4.0
The ongoing digitalization and the associated technological developments offer many new advantages and opportunities in the non-destructive testing of ropes.
Drawing on years of experience in magnetic wire rope testing, we have developed a device that masters a wide range of testing tasks and ensures maximum safety through precise analysis, secure data processing, and reliable rope assessment. Our magnetic rope testing also offers precise analysis, thus guaranteeing the highest level of safety when testing ropes.
Precise and efficient with magnetic rope testing
- Wireless operation and visualization of the measurement enable uninterrupted measurement, even in the event of connection interruptions. Once the connection is restored, the measurement can be resumed without any problems.
- The innovative sensor concept consists of two induction coils and up to 48 Hall sensors, which are pre-processed and digitized directly in the sensor head.
- Both LF and LMA signals are available.
- The defects can also be located in 3D.
- More efficient magnet types therefore provide better performance than comparable systems.
- External cables were also reduced to a minimum.
- In addition to the established expert system for inspection service providers, there is an automated “smart device” that automatically analyzes and assesses the condition of a rope. The user receives a clear and understandable overview of the rope’s condition.
Key Features:
- The database-driven storage system for measurements offers a synchronization option between the testing equipment and the evaluation technology. This allows measurements to be saved directly on the testing equipment and conveniently analyzed at a later time. Thanks to this synchronization, your data is available anytime, anywhere, making your testing processes more flexible and efficient.
Flexibility and data access:
- This allows you to save measurements directly on the test device and analyze them conveniently later. This enables rapid data evaluation at any time. This ensures that you can check the measurements as needed and process the results further.
- Synchronization with a central database is also available, allowing the data to be analyzed on a different computer at a later time. This significantly simplifies both synchronization and subsequent data analysis.
- The software runs entirely on the testing device, making it usable with any internet-enabled device and a standard browser. This ensures particularly simple and location-independent operation. Furthermore, magnetic rope testing can be performed quickly and flexibly, regardless of location or device.
- All familiar editing functions, such as cutting, repositioning, and others, are also available. Furthermore, the software automatically checks the functionality of the sensors. Before each measurement, a self-check is performed, during which the target values are saved directly to the sensor, guaranteeing error-free measurements. Thanks to the automatic self-check with direct target value storage on the sensor, you can rely on error-free measurement results.
- Should a sensor of the wrong size be accidentally installed, the software detects this and immediately notifies the system to prevent errors. This ensures both correctly configured sensors and accurate measurements, guaranteeing error-free analysis. We thus guarantee high measurement accuracy and reliable data analysis.
Precision and quality assurance:
- The software automatically performs a standard assessment and immediately displays the degree of discard readiness of the measurement data, thus instantly informing the user about the rope’s condition. This ensures continuous monitoring of the rope’s condition, increasing the precision of magnetic rope testing.
- The magnetic rope test is supported by powerful software that enables precise analysis of defects and rope condition. Furthermore, users can add photos to the identified defects, along with manual measurement data such as lay length and diameter, and link them directly to the corresponding defect. This allows for detailed documentation and increases the accuracy of the test.
Comprehensive documentation:
- The user can generate a PDF report of the analyzed data, which includes not only the measurement conditions but also all defects and the standard rating. This provides the user with a complete overview of the measurement, clearly presenting all relevant information.
- Made in Germany
