Would you like to automate your rope inspection?
The Winspect® rope inspection system was developed by Automation W+R GmbH and brought to market maturity.
Due to the worldwide demand for the Winspect® testing system for ropes, this area was spun off into Winspect GmbH & CoKG in Austria and Winspect GmbH in Munich. Both companies are dedicated to the further development and international marketing of visual rope testing systems.

Winspect® 2.0

Rope Inspection 2.0 for cable cars

Ask us anything

The future of visual rope inspection

The Winspect® 2.0 inspection system sets new standards in visual rope inspection and emphasises Winspect GmbH’s claim to be an innovation leader in the industry. The rope inspection system enables high-precision, automated inspection at a speed of up to 2.7 m/s. Four colour cameras arranged in a ring capture the entire rope surface and deliver exact results in real time. The 360-degree colour images enable exact fault detection and precise analysis of lay lengths and diameters across the entire rope.

The new, optimised inspection system for inspecting hauling, suspension and hoisting ropes will be presented for the first time at Interalpin 2025 from 6 to 9 May 2025 in Innsbruck.

The benefits of our system

We have been successfully developing and selling the Winspect® rope inspection system for 13 years and have set new standards with it. Through continuous further development and state-of-the-art technologies, we make a significant contribution to safety and efficiency in the ropeway industry.

Small design, great flexibility

4 cameras for 360° full-color images

Versatile areas of application

Winspect® 2.0 sets new standards

The optimised Winspect® 2.0 inspection system not only ensures rapid operational readiness and high recording speed, but also a significant reduction in downtime thanks to time flexibility. Occupational safety, work ergonomics and the attractiveness of the workplace are also significantly improved.

Fast readiness, low downtime

Improved safety & work ergonomics

Improved workplace attractiveness

Detailed documentation

The condition of the rope is digitally documented and is available in a detailed report. All damage such as wire distortions, scratches, strand contact, corrosion damage or wire breaks can be recognised automatically. The lay lengths and rope diameters are also measured and recorded. This facilitates traceability, as changes to the rope surface can be documented over the entire service life.

Comprehensive inspection report

Detection of all common errors

Simplified traceability

Bayerische Zugspitzbahn Bergbahn, Germany

One of our longest reference customers. At Germany's highest mountain, traction and haulage ropes have already been inspected with the Winspect® rope inspection device since 2009. Rope testing thus replaces visual inspection by eye. The company is thus demonstrating its innovative pioneering role. The "world champion" Zugspitzbahn is also inspected with the Winspect device.

Marcus Liebscher, Operations Manager of the Kreuzeckbahn:
„Due to the ease of use of the device, it is now used on eight of our lifts for monthly rope inspections“

Engadin St.Moritz, Swizerland

Thanks to the Winspect® rope inspection system, ropeway specialists can carry out most of the visual rope inspection in the office. They manage this work mainly during bad weather conditions or to bridge off-peak periods. Currently, the ropes of all ropeways that are in operation during the summer are inspected with the new inspection system. With the funicular "St. Moritz Dorf-Chantarella" we have started into the new "rope testing age". We are delighted that the world's number one vacation destination in the mountains has chosen us.

Walmendingerhornbahn, Austria

Since fall 2011, optical rope inspection has also been carried out on the Nebelhorn using the Winspect® rope inspection device. The new, modern 2S Nebelhorn lift is also inspected with our testing device. We thank you for the long and good cooperation. The mountains around Oberstdorf and Kleinwalsertal, such as the Fellhorn and Walmendingerhorn, as well as the modern D-line lifts on the Ifen, are also digitally visually inspected. The newly built runways on the family mountain Söllereck will also be analyzed digitally in the future.

Visual inspection of mine ropes

With the Minespect® system, we deliver a new technology that can
comprehensively solve the challenges of rope inspection in underground
mining. The device is designed and optimized for operation on Koepe shaft hoisting systems for inspect multiple parallel hoisting ropes. Nevertheless, the inspection system can also be used on drum hoists.

With our rope inspection system Minespect®, visual inspection of the complete rope circumference is performed accurately, safely and quickly. The rope surface is recorded at a speed of up to 20 m/s and can be carried out during conveying operation. This circumstance results in considerable cost savings.

Benefits of our system

Ensure operational safety

High plant availability

Detailed documentation

Evaluation of rope condition

The image data recorded by the cameras is then automatically processed, the diameter and lay length are determined over the entire rope length and defects such as wire breaks protruding from the rope are detected. Afterwards, the operator can examine and evaluate the result.

  • Anomalies protruding from the rope
  • Increase/decrease of the rope diameter
  • Increase/decrease in lay length
  • Basket deformation
  • Waviness

Documentation

Finally, the documentation generated by the inspection system helps to compare the rope condition over time and to detect dynamic changes in the rope. A more accurate assessment of the discard condition can thus be carried out.

Inspect cable-stayed bridges

Ropes are the load-bearing elements of cable-stayed bridges and give them their stability over decades. Environmental influences such as weathering and loads caused by increasing heavy traffic place enormous stress on the structures. The cables, which are protected against corrosion by a multi-layer coating (sheathing), must be inspected at regular intervals both visually and by magnetic induction in order to detect and repair any damage at an early stage.

Your advantages

With the Bridgespect® visual rope inspection device, the ropes can be simultaneously inspected semi-automatically visually as well as magnetically inductively. For visual inspection, we have developed a Bridgespect® rope inspection device in modular design, which can cover rope diameters from 95mm upwards. By means of at least four color cameras arranged at right angles to each other, the complete rope surface is recorded, seamlessly documented and automatically evaluated by software for surface damage. As with our rope inspection devices for ropeways and conveyor systems in mines, the inspection personnel have the option of having a detailed inspection report issued after the analysis has been completed.
