An illustrative example assembly for making an elevator load bearing member includes a fabric having a plurality of fibers arranged with some of the fibers transverse to others of the fibers. A plurality of cords are configured to support a load associated with an elevator car. The cords are included in the fabric and have respective coatings. The coatings include a first coating material and a second coating material, or include different coating thicknesses such that some of the coatings have a different coating thickness than others of the coatings, or the coatings include the first coating material and the second coating material and some of the coatings have a different coating thickness than others of the coatings.

A straightening device for straightening cables includes two rows of rollers, an adjusting device for manually adjusting a distance between the rows of rollers, a measuring device for recording the distance between the rows of rollers, and an indicator device with which deviations of the actual value of the distance between the rows of rollers, determined by the measuring device, from a nominal value is visually indicated. The indicator device has two optical error indicating elements for indicating too high and/or too low an actual value compared with the nominal value of the distance, as well as an optical correct indicating element for indicating that the actual value of the distance corresponds with the nominal value.

The invention relates to a method for filling in a tension member in particular for conveyor belts, in particular a tension member which is configured as a steel cable. The method is intended to allow the full penetration of the tension member structure. Here, the method contains at least the following method steps: introducing the individual wires (2, 2, 2, 2, 2) of the strand (5) into the stranding head (1) of a stranding machine (10) and partially or fully applying at least one coating agent to at least 50% of the individual wires (2, 2, 2, 2, 2) of the strand (5) prior to the twisting of the individual wires (2, 2, 2, 2, 2) to form a strand (5) or simultaneously with the twisting of the individual wires (2, 2, 2, 2, 2) to form a strand (5) and twisting the individual wires (2, 2, 2, 2, 2) to form a strand (5), wherein at least 50% of the individual wires (2, 2, 2, 2, 2) have been provided with at least one coating agent, and making a cable from at least one strand (5).

A rope having a core for providing strength to the rope, where at least a metal or composite woven or warp knitted fabric having multiple substantially parallel elongated metal elements is provided around the core for protecting said core from impact and cutting, and where the multiple substantially parallel elongated elements are in the warp direction and held by yarns.
