Method and device for producing a rope
View Patent ↗A method and device for producing a rope, in particular a wire rope, a fiber rope or a rope having wire and fibers, wherein the rope is provided with a marking during the stranding thereof. The marking is changed during the stranding operation. Expediently, during stranding, the marking is provided successively with details characterizing the stranding progress. The details include production parameters, for example information relating to the length of the rope already formed, about raw materials used, the stranding speed and/or the current stranding time. The details are provided on a wire, a wire strand and/or a marking strand, wherein the details are printed on the wire, the wire strand or the marking strand or are embossed in the wire, the wire strand or the marking strand, and/or chips, preferably radio chips, are arranged in the rope.
1. A method for producing a rope, comprising the steps of: stranding the rope; providing the rope with a marking as the rope is being stranded; changing the marking during the stranding process; providing the marking with a succession of codes characterizing progress of the stranding; and providing the codes on at least one of a wire, a wire strand, a fiber strand, and a marking strand, wherein the wire, the wire strand, the fiber strand, or the marking strand passes in a straight line through the rope and is next to a core rope passing in a straight line through the rope.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the codes comprise production parameters including data on a length of rope already produced, raw materials used, stranding speed, and/or current stranding date/time.
3. The method according to claim 1 , including printing the codes on the wire, wire strand, fiber strand, and/or marking strand.
4. The method according to claim 1 , including embossing the codes into the wire, wire strand, or marking strand.
5. The method according to claim 1 , including arranging chips in the rope.
6. The method according to claim 5 , wherein the chips are radio chips.
7. A method for producing a rope, comprising the steps of: stranding the rope; providing the rope with a marking as the rope is being stranded; changing the marking during the stranding process; providing the marking with a succession of codes characterizing progress of the stranding; and providing the codes on at least one of a wire, a wire strand, a fiber strand, and a marking strand, wherein the wire, the wire strand, the fiber strand, and/or the marking strand is provided with the marking prior to stranding, is wound up, and is then unwound during the stranding and guided to a stranding port.
8. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the codes comprise production parameters including data on a length of rope already produced, raw materials used, stranding speed, and/or current stranding date/time.
9. The method according to claim 7 , including printing the codes on the wire, wire strand, fiber strand, and/or marking strand.
10. The method according to claim 7 , including embossing the codes into the wire, wire strand, or marking strand.
11. The method according to claim 7 , including arranging chips in the rope.
12. The method according to claim 11 , wherein the chips are radio chips.
13. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the wire, the wire strand, the fiber strand, or the marking strand passes in a straight line through the rope.
14. A method for producing a rope, comprising the steps of: stranding the rope; providing the rope with a marking as the rope is being stranded; changing the marking during the stranding process; providing the marking with a succession of codes characterizing progress of the stranding; and providing the codes on at least one of a wire, a wire strand, a fiber strand, and a marking strand, wherein the wire, the wire strand, or the marking strand is provided with the marking during stranding and is guided to a stranding point.
15. The method according to claim 14 , wherein the codes comprise production parameters including data on a length of rope already produced, raw materials used, stranding speed, and/or current stranding date/time.
16. The method according to claim 14 , including printing the codes on the wire, wire strand, fiber strand, and/or marking strand.
17. The method according to claim 14 , including embossing the codes into the wire, wire strand, or marking strand.
18. The method according to claim 14 , including arranging chips in the rope.
19. The method according to claim 18 , wherein the chips are radio chips.
20. The method according to claim 14 , wherein the wire, the wire strand, the fiber strand, or the marking strand passes in a straight line through the rope.
