Application of the Magnetic Method in the Diagnostics of Wire Ropes at Tapered Sockets
Tomasz Krakowski, Hubert Ruta, Maciej Roskosz · Biuletyn Instytutu Spawalnictwa · 2020
Presently used magnetic methods for testing wire ropes leave an untested rope section located in the direct vicinity of a tapered socket.However, the aforesaid area may contain damage resulting from existing stresses and wear processes.The article discusses results of a study concerned with diagnostic equipment enabling the assessment of the above-named area in terms of its technical condition as well as presents results of the FEM-based numerical analysis of a magnetisation system and laboratory test results concerning a rope containing simulated damage.
