01 Main area
Ropeway service. Competent. Reliable. Personal.
From scheduled maintenance through repair to supported overhauls: we work to the manufacturer’s specifications, document every step and keep downtime as short as possible.
Maintenance & repair
All components of the installation – scheduled during the maintenance window or at short notice after a fault.
Sheave assembly overhaul
Complete overhaul of sheave assemblies, including VT and MT inspection of the load-bearing parts.
Overhaul support
Extra hands and expertise at the station, along the line, on grips, vehicles and carriages.
Bridges & underfloor gearboxes
Removal and installation of bridges and underfloor gearboxes, including alignment and recommissioning.
Helicopter & crane operations
Carrying out and supervising lifting flights and crane work at towers that are hard to reach.
02 Part of the ropeway service
Cabin refurbishment at the highest level.
The vehicle is the only part of the installation your guests really see. We refurbish cabins completely – from the underbody to the upholstery – and return them on time and ready for acceptance.
Included in the scope
- Cabin overhaul
- Underbody work
- Corrosion protection
- Paintwork
- Window replacement
- Seat refurbishment
- Upholstery
- Add-on parts
How a cabin refurbishment runs
- 1
Assessment
Recording the current condition, photo documentation and agreeing the scope of work.
- 2
Underbody & corrosion
Removing add-on parts, rust removal and corrosion protection on the underbody.
- 3
Paintwork
Preparation, priming and top coat in the colour of your installation.
- 4
Glazing & interior
Replacing windows and refurbishing seats and upholstery.
- 5
Final assembly
Refitting add-on parts, final inspection and handover ready for acceptance.
03 Second focus area
Ropeway inspection – quality in focus.
We inspect on two levels: the individual component and the entire installation. Both from a single source, both documented.
Level 1 · Component
Non-destructive testing (NDT)
Whether ropeway components, machine or plant parts: depending on the method, non-destructive testing (NDT) reveals cracks, surface defects and internal material flaws – without damaging the component.
Inspect. Detect. Make it safe.
-
VT
Visual inspection
Surface · direct and indirect
Systematic visual and dimensional inspection of the surface for cracks, wear, deformation and corrosion. It comes first in every inspection chain and decides where to look closer.
-
MT
Magnetic particle testing
Surface & near-surface
The component is magnetised; the test medium gathers in the leakage field above a crack and traces it. The standard method for ferromagnetic parts such as grips and sheave assemblies.
-
UT
Ultrasonic testing
Volume · wall thickness
Injected pulses are reflected by discontinuities and evaluated as an echo. This reveals flaws deep inside the material – in axles, bolts and welds.
Every inspection is recorded and handed over as a test report.
Level 2 · Installation
Inspection, expert reports and certification.
We handle the statutory inspections and the documents that go with them together with our partner engineering office – from a single source, so you do not have to coordinate two contacts.
Inspection and documentation
- Ropeway inspection under SeilbüV 2013 (Austrian ropeway inspection regulation)
- Safety report (Sicherheitsbericht)
- Ropeway engineering expert reports
- Extensions and conversions under §20
- Rope inspection (MRT – magnetic rope testing)
- AMVO inspection (Austrian work equipment ordinance)
Overhaul, certification and projects
- General overhaul
- Certification of safety components under EU Ropeway Regulation 2016/424
- Project development for ropeways, surface lifts and alpine tourism
- Project management
These services are provided together with our partner engineering office for ropeway technology.
