The mission at the Bridon technology centre is to research and test to understand the complexities of the ropes from the material properties to the load bearing capabilities with the aim of delivering products with a longer working life.
Products, such as Bridon’s Tiger Dyform 24LS Hoist Rope, have saved an African mining company thousands of pounds by reducing downtime by ten days. The company installed two 900 metre ropes which have outperformed any other products by five times. Each rope replacement takes two days to install resulting in a massive TEN days downtime.
The Tiger Dyform 24LS Hoist Rope is engineered to provide the lowest cost per tonnes hoisted and ensure superior service life. The product has excellent wear and fatigue values and an unrivalled service life with increased cycle count.
