Abstract

A concept of a rope-driven handling device was developed. The scope of the work was to achieve a significant noise reduction by the utilisation of high-performance fibre ropes actuated by motor winch devices. A two-dimensional demonstrational was implemented and analysed. Furthermore, a concept for the compensation of the weak axis was set up. In comparison to conventionally built axles, a significant lowering of the emitted sound pressure level was achieved.
