    Rope specific technology

A dedicated team of engineers and skilled workers is a key element. ArcelorMittal Bourg-en-Bresse gathers performing machines and up to date technologies to manufacture 15,000 t a year of high technical ropes.

Know-how and experience

Our team has developed its own special software for calculation and rope design. Years after years we have been building a comprehensive experience about ropes.

Strand compaction

Our technology ensures:

  • An accurate calibration of the strands leading to an optimal geometrical assembly of the ropes.
  • A smooth outer strand surface without damaging the wire coating.
  • That no overheating will damage the wire structure.

Plastic impregnation

ArcelorMittal Bourg-en-Bresse has been developing and improving its own in-house plastic impregnation process for more than 20 years, resulting in a range of plastic impregnated ropes suitable for the most difficult applications:

  • Increase the service life.
  • Protects the core.
  • Helps for an homogeneous behaviour of all the components.
