A multilayer strand steel wire rope production device is provided. A pre-former is fixed on a drum, and a specific position of the pre-former is defined, a center strand payoff spool and a plurality of outer winding strand payoff spools are provided in the drum. The first wire guide mechanism is close to the corresponding outer winding strand payoff spool. One end of the outer surface of the drum away from the first wire guide mechanism is provided with a second wire guide mechanism, and a hub is additionally provided and located on one side of the drum close to the second wire guide mechanism; outer winding strands drawn from the plurality of outer winding strand payoff spools sequentially pass the first wire guide mechanism, the pre-former, and the second wire guide mechanism, and are guided to the hub for gathering to complete strand wire twisting.

A wire rope for face shovels or draglines, comprising: a core, said core is made from a plurality of core strands a plurality of outer strands laid on said core, a plurality of separator strands located in the interstices between said core strands and said outer strands, a plastic jacket around said plurality of outer strands, said plurality of separator strands and said core strands, wherein said plurality of separator strands extend from said core strands and in-between each pair of said plurality of outer strands so as to produce and maintain gaps between said pair of said plurality of outer strands; wherein said core strands are compacted, and the gap between said core strands is less than 0.4% of the diameter of the core strand.

A wire rope for elevator systems used to hoist, compensate, and govern an elevator car. The wire rope may include six to ten outer steel strands surrounding a central braided polyester core. The wire rope may include six to ten outer steel strands and six to ten inner steel strands surrounding a central braided polyester core. The braided polyester core may include 8-24 single- or double-braided outer strands surrounding a polyester core center that may include parallel fibers, twisted fibers, twisted strands, single-braided strands, or double-braided strands.

A wire rope having improved durability and that can be used in a medical device to be inserted into a patient's body. The wire rope includes a core wire and side wires. The core wire is a special metal element wire that has a hardness at an outer periphery in a cross-section thereof that is higher than that at a center in the cross-section thereof. The wire rope does not include grease.

Provided is a wire rope with resin wire, including a wire rope body in which a plurality of strands are twisted together, and at least one resin wire spirally wound around the wire rope body along a recess between the strands. Strand grooves into which the strands can fit and a resin wire groove into which the resin wire can fit are formed spirally along the twist of the wire rope with resin wire, in a winding hole of a resin wire winding die used for winding the resin wire around the wire rope body. As a result, the resin wire can be easily and reliably mounted on the wire rope body and a wire rope with resin wire can be thus produced.

The durability of a wire rope is improved. The wire rope includes a rope body having at least one strand each formed with a plurality of element wires twisted with each other; a lubricant interposed between the plurality of element wires of the at least one strand; and a resin layer coating the outer periphery of the rope body along with the lubricant, the lubricant containing a sulfur-containing organic molybdenum compound.

This wire rope is provided with a plurality of strands that are twisted with each other, and the plurality of strands each have a configuration in which a plurality of element wires are twisted with each other. The wire rope is further provided with a single wire that is disposed in a recess section formed on the outer peripheral side of the wire rope by two strands that are adjacent to each other along the peripheral direction of the wire rope. In a transverse cross-section of the wire rope, a portion of the single wire is positioned inside a virtual circumscribed circle of one of the two strands.

Ultra-High-Strength (UHS) wires are suited to high strength wire, strands, cables and rope applications including robotics force transmission and other high-performance mono- and multifilament wire applications. The wires exhibit high strength, low stretch and fatigue durability. Exemplary UHS materials include binary molybdenum-rhenium or tungsten-rhenium alloys with between 20 and 50 wt. % rhenium. These alloys are processed from a moderate strength (<2 GPa) warm-drawn rod to drawn monofilament wire with extreme nanocrystalline grain refinement, high apparent fatigue durability, and ultimate strength levels exceeding 5 GPa in all cases, and up to 6.8 GPa at monofilament diameters ranging from 7 to 100 μm.

The present invention is directed to a cold cutting polypectomy snare. The cold cutting polypectomy snare has a cross section optimized for polypectomy. In some embodiments, the snare may have a uniform cross section along a length of the snare. In other embodiments, the snare may include a first side and a second side, wherein the first and second sides each have a unique cross section. Further, the cross-sections of the first side and the second side can be configured to couple together when a diameter of the snare is decreased to affect a cutting of a polyp.

Provided is a wire rope with resin wire, including a wire rope body in which a plurality of strands are twisted together, and at least one resin wire spirally wound around the wire rope body along a recess between the strands. Strand grooves into which the strands can fit and a resin wire groove into which the resin wire can fit are formed spirally along the twist of the wire rope with resin wire, in a winding hole of a resin wire winding die used for winding the resin wire around the wire rope body. As a result, the resin wire can be easily and reliably mounted on the wire rope body and a wire rope with resin wire can be thus produced.
