ROPESYS Splice Finder \u2013 Safe operation in special detachable cable cars.<\/span><\/h2>\n

The ROPESYS splice finder<\/a> reliably detects every splice in detachable cable car systems.<\/p>\n

Using its magnetic system, it continuously checks whether there is a splice in the station.<\/p>\n

The device sends signals to the control system or warning lights as needed. This ensures safe operation and reduces the workload for personnel. <\/p>\n

Rope splicing for endless loops<\/span><\/h3>\n

When splicing a rope, skilled workers join two rope ends to form a continuous loop. They take care to ensure that the rope is only minimally thickened so that the coupling clamps function correctly. <\/p>\n

Modern coupling clamps tolerate a maximum thickness of ten percent compared to the rope diameter in the splice area. Experienced splicers usually stay well below this limit. <\/p>\n

The splice is a sensitive section that needs to be checked and maintained regularly.<\/p>\n

Here you will find an informational video <\/a>on the production of rope splices, which clearly explains the process.<\/p>\n

Special requirements for the Wankbahn<\/span><\/h3>\n

On special installations like the Wankbahn cable car <\/a>in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, the clamps of the cabins must not couple in the splice area. Therefore, the system automatically prevents coupling. <\/p>\n

The Wankbahn cable car <\/span>was built in 1981 by PWH (Pohlig-Weser-H\u00fctte) <\/span>and operates fully automatically with gravity clamps of the Swiss Giovanola system.<\/p>\n

This technical feature requires the highest precision in monitoring.<\/p>\n

Function and advantages of the ROPESYS splice finder<\/span><\/h3>\n

The splice finder uses magnets to check whether a splice is located in the station or the opposite station. If the system detects a splice, it informs the cable car control system in real time. <\/p>\n

This prevents clamps from connecting in the splice area. In this way, the device reliably prevents misconnections. <\/p>\n

At the same time, it supports the operating staff, increases efficiency and ensures that processes become safer and smoother.<\/p>\n

Successful commissioning on the Wankbahn<\/span><\/h3>\n

The first splice finder has been monitoring section II of the Wankbahn cable car<\/a> in Garmisch-Partenkirchen <\/span>for a year.<\/p>\n

In February 2026, a second device was installed on Section I. This means the entire railway line is now monitored. <\/p>\n

Safety and innovation through the ROPESYS splice finder<\/span><\/h3>\n

The ROPESYS splice finder<\/a> demonstrates how practical and innovative safety solutions can be implemented. Through magnetic detection, real-time monitoring, and control integration, the system achieves maximum safety. <\/p>\n

This relieves the burden on staff, improves operational processes and increases the efficiency of the plant.<\/p>\n

Solution for detachable cable cars worldwide<\/span><\/h3>\n

The installation on the Wankbahn cable car<\/a> illustrates how important technological innovations are in sensitive areas.<\/p>\n

With the ROPESYS <\/span>splice finder, ROTEC <\/a>offers a solution worldwide that significantly increases safety, reliability and efficiency in special detachable cable car systems.<\/p>\n

ROPESYS \u2013 Safety at the highest level. <\/strong>Made by engineers in Germany.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
