MEC - Cable forces and pulley blocks

Pulley blocks make it possible to lift heavy loads and are used, for example, with cranes. In combination with other accessories, this enables the smart, digitally supported experimental setup of pulley blocks. The experiment contains two pulley blocks of different designs with smart, communication-enabled suspension cables, equipped with electronic modules for data acquisition and measured value display. The experimental arrangement is set up in the mounting frame. The stainless steel mounting frame provides direct and wireless data transmission and power supply for the smart components. The pulley blocks have the same transmission ratio and can be investigated simultaneously. The transmission ratio is determined by the number of cable strands and pulleys used. It is possible to configure two setup variants with each pulley block. The force, angle and displacement measurement on the suspension cable has five snap-in points for setting different heights. The click system ensures the components easily snap into place.
