Abstract

In the article we are dealing with the problems of the steel wires and steel wire ropes testing, which are very often used today, and at the same time some negatives of the standards valid for steel wire rope testing are mentioned. In the article are mentioned also the drawbacks of new European standards which are implemented to the system of Slovak technical standards. From the rope quality assessment point of view the lifting capacity of the rope as a whole is important. In the article is briefly presented new shredder machine, with the maximum shredding force of 2500 kN. The steel wire ropes with 63 mm in diameter and maximum length of 6 m can be tested using this machine.
