What are the advantages of round strand wire rope?

Steel wire rope is one of the more important equipment in the mine. The safe operation of steel wire rope affects the life safety of many workers. At the beginning, triangular strand mining wire rope was adopted in China. In 2007, baikete introduced the round strand wire rope produced by WDI in Europe and Germany to the domestic market. It has changed the invariable trend in China and greatly improved the safety of domestic mines.

Round strand steel wire rope is a steel wire bundle twisted by multiple strands of steel wire rope around a fiber core or steel wire rope core, also known as three twist steel wire rope. Each layer of steel wire in the rope strand is braided with equal twist pitch, while the twist pitch of the inner layer of steel wire and the outer layer of steel wire are equal, so that the steel wires between layers are parallel to each other and in line contact. The typical Warrington type and Xilu type are line contact steel wire ropes.

What are the characteristics of round strand wire rope:

(1) Good flexibility, avoiding stress concentration and reducing friction resistance between steel wires.

(2) The performance of bending and fatigue resistance is significantly improved, which is more favorable when working on the drum with small bending radius or under large extrusion load.

(3) Its unit weight is 7-10% lower than that of triangular strand wire rope with the same diameter. When the tensile strength and breaking force meet the requirements of the system, the burden on the whole equipment of the deep well system is reduced, and the lifting capacity is relatively increased.

German WDI company is the world's leading manufacturer of steel wire rope, with the most complete industrial chain. Excellent quality makes it the leading brand of steel wire rope. Python mining wire rope of WDI company in Germany is synonymous with high-performance wire rope in the world. As early as 1911, WDI group was committed to producing standard and high-performance steel wire ropes.

In Western Europe alone, WDI has purchased more than 1 million tons of steel. 350000 tons of steel wire are produced every year. In recent years, it has invested 600 million euros to acquire a steel plant in Switzerland, making the source of steel raw materials rich and flexible.

In addition, the steel wire and hemp core for rope twisting are produced by WDI group, which can not only shorten the supply time, but also always maintain good product quality.
