Abstract
As the reserves of these raw materials continue to dwindle, their extraction is becoming increasingly difficult, with shaft depth increasing and sometimes exceeding three kilometres. As shaft depths increase, the costs, as well as the risks of mining and other shaft operations, increase non-linearly. There is also a significant increase in the costs associated with condition assessment, which depend on the inspection and testing method used and increase with the lifetime of the facility. New technical and organisational solutions are emerging to meet these requirements. This paper addresses the operation of steel ropes. This article analyses the results of strength tests on two selected modern hoisting rope designs that have recently come into service. These structures are relatively unknown to users in terms of their wear. In their operation, significant problems of condition assessment and safety, as well as disqualification due to the level of wear reached, arise. Strength tests were performed using classic non-destructive methods (tensile test, torsion test, bending test) to assess the technical condition of ropes after their replacement. The tests on two rope structures carried out before and after they were put down by expert decision were analyzed. The results of these tests were statistically processed and presented graphically to determine similarities and differences. Statistical analyses were used to evaluate the results by examining the distribution of variable strength parameters. All results were commented on, and specific and general conclusions were drawn. The article presents the conclusions, the most important of which is that new and complex ropes exhibit varying degrees of wear across the layers. This is due to their compaction process. These should be useful to users of similar rope designs, personnel carrying out the obligatory tests imposed by the legislation, and those making strategic decisions regarding the operation of entire mining plants. The analyses may contribute to the subsequent assessment of the technical condition of new ropes, which in many cases have wear parameters (corrosion, strength loss, etc.) assessed in a subjective, not quantitative, manner.
