Now you can accurately and quickly calculate hoist rope life using the equations of Dr. Klaus Feyrer, of the University of Stuttgart (an acknowledged leader in the field of rope technology and the author of Wire Ropes: Tension, Endurance, and Reliability) online with Brugg RLP (Rope Life Predictor)! 

No more heavy math or complicated formulas to follow. Brugg RLP uses your specific system data to create results you can use online. This program even accounts for key variable factors and the multiplicative effects of rope (and core) designs, sheave diameters and groove profiles, reverse bends, elevator car/rope velocity, rope tensioning and load effects, and/or the degree of maintenance lubrication you could find.

RLP calculates the discarding number of bending cycles with 95% certainty that at least 90% of the ropes will reach the calculated bending cycles. With RLP you can contrast scenarios to see which rope best fits your needs and view how those choices impact budget outlays using a cost benefit analysis. And the cost to subscribe for a year? $89 or €70. Just think of the savings.
