In mining, there is no room for compromise – safety and reliability must go hand in hand with precision and modern technology. One of the key elements ensuring the efficient and safe operation of hoisting machines is the effective control of rope tension. MWM Elektro Sp. z o.o. has developed a comprehensive measuring and recording system that combines decades of experience with innovative solutions, setting new standards in monitoring and technical support.

Thanks to an innovative approach and continuous development, a modern rope tension control system has been created, merging long-standing tradition with state-of-the-art technical solutions. This system enhances the safety and efficiency of mining operations on a global scale.

ZPR – a modern measuring device in the rope tension control system for hoisting machines

The central element of our solution is the ZPR – Measuring and Recording Unit. This device:

  • maintains full compatibility with earlier TEMIX versions,

  • supports up to 8 WPS measuring inserts simultaneously,

  • records data from all sensors in internal memory,

  • integrates with WIZLin and RadioLin software, enabling visualization and analysis of results.

As an integral component of the MWM Elektro rope tension control system, the ZPR is also equipped with a remote start function and standby mode. This allows measurements and data readings to be initiated without the need to enter the hoist conveyance each time, significantly improving both convenience and safety in daily operations.

Modernization of the MWM Elektro rope tension control system – OLED display, keypad, and reinforced design

The new generation of the MWM Elektro rope tension control system has been designed for safe operation under demanding mining conditions. Thanks to its upgrades, the OLED display ensures full readability under all circumstances, while the ergonomic keypad allows operation with thick gloves. At the same time, the reinforced structure and wiring protect the device from damage.

The unit is powered by a high-capacity 7 Ah battery, ensuring stable operation of measurements and WPS sensors.

In practice, this enables the equalization of rope tensions, which significantly extends rope service life and reduces operating costs.

How the rope tension control system increases safety and reduces operating costs in mines

The process of equalizing rope tension is key to the safe operation of multi-rope hoisting machines. Unevenly loaded ropes lead to faster wear, a higher risk of failure, and costly downtime.

Thanks to the MWM Elektro rope tension control system, measurements are precise, machine operation becomes safer, maintenance costs are reduced, and the service life of ropes is significantly extended.
