Always Focused on Safety
We typically use only high-strength, large-diameter galvanized steel cable for our build, ensuring maximum strength and lifespan in tough conditions. Although corrosion-resistant and able to last up to 15 years, cables still wear out over time. Inspecting the cable can help us determine its condition, strength, and flexibility over time. Skyline inspectors suggest processes like NDT (non-destructive testing) and MRT (magnetic rope testing) depending on your site’s location, throughput, and physical properties to ensure your cable remains in healthy condition.
First, our inspection process includes examining the dual point attachments of the skyTECH Twin-Harnesses and the integrity and load-strength of the skyTECH Launcher. First, high-speed trolleys must withstand high-velocity impacts, while at the same time keeping riders properly aligned and facing forward. In addition, it is essential to inspect parts such as polyurethane sheaves, bearings, and impact plates, because these checks directly determine the overall safety of the system. Moreover, these inspections also indicate when facility owners should replace parts, thereby helping them maintain the highest safety standards. Finally, by consistently following this process, operators can not only ensure rider safety but also provide them with ongoing peace of mind.
Traveling at high speeds requires reliable braking equipment. That’s why we inspect the skyTECH Catch Blocks, and all other braking components, in close detail to ensure all hardware is in peak condition and rubber bumpers are able to absorb high-speed impacts.
