CompactTrac, PowerTrac, TopTrac, HyTrac
The continuing technical progress in the elevator industry, which
includes larger and faster installations in conjuntion with smaller
sheaves, has markedly raised the demands on hoist ropes. Gustav
Wolf has already acted on this trend by developing new ropes in
diameters of less than 8 mm. Gustav Wolf has taken an additional
step by introducing a new generation of elevator ropes which are
designed to meet the increasing demands of existing and new
installations for diameters larger than equal to 8 mm.
The result is our newly-designed CompactTrac and PowerTrac product
-both with compacted strands. CompactTrac and PowerTrac feature:
Increased service life; through greater bending resistance
Higher wear resistance; the larger surface area of the outer strands leads to a better
seat in the groove of the traction sheave resulting in a reduction
of the concentrated (point) load on the elevator ropes. The surface
pressure is more evenly distributed over the ropes resulting in
minimization of wear and noise.
Reduction elongation; through the higher metallic cross-section the elongation
properties of the ropes are considerably improved which reduces
labor required for rope shortenings.
Smaller diameters; with their higher breaking loads it may be possible to achieve
cost savings on new installations through the use of smaller
diameter ropes.
Thanks to a longer service life as well as ease of maintenance,
Gustav Wolf succeeded in developing a new generation of elevator
ropes. They will be the perfect match for the future technical and
commercial demands of elevator technology.
Our top of the line product TopTrac incorporates a high metallic
cross-section and superior bending resistance. TopTrac features:
9 outer strands to reduce the bending pressure on individual wires
= highest service life.
Increase in the fill factor due to the double parallel lay =
transfer of higher tensile forces.
Parallel stranding construction reduces rope pressure = maximum
wear resistance.
HyTrac
The new Hybrid rope
8 x 19 W-SFC
In comparison to steel core ropes the same breaking load but 20%
less weight
SFC = 15 times stronger than steel
