Rope guide, also commonly known as a "rope arranger," is a device installed near the drum. Its main functions are:
Orderly rope arrangement: Guiding the wire rope to wind neatly and sequentially on the drum, preventing tangles, overlaps, and rope biting.
Protecting the wire rope: Tangled rope can severely wear down, crush, or even cut the wire rope. A rope guide effectively prevents this, extending the wire rope's lifespan.
Ensuring safety: Preventing tangled rope from causing the lifting height limiter to malfunction or the wire rope to jump off the drum, thus avoiding serious accidents such as falling loads.
Improving efficiency: Ensuring smooth wire rope winding and unwinding, reducing downtime due to malfunctions.
