The purpose of the master's thesis is to determine, analyze and evaluate the impact of operation on damage to the mechanical parts of cableway devices for transporting people. We discussed, analyzed, and evaluated the impact of the operation of cableway devices on damage and wear of vital parts and components.
Among the obtained components of the cableway devices, we selected typical damaged, and worn parts, i.e.: the running wheel of the vehicle with a detachable clamp, the brake disc of the traction drum, the wedge of the transport rail of the vehicle garage, bolts, push elements of the fixed clamp, fixed clamps, and ropes. The selected parts were first visually inspected, and then matalographic samples were prepared for further observation with an optical and scanning electron microscope. We also carried out an inspection with magnetic particles on fixed clamp and a magnetically inductive inspection of ropes. Based on the results, we found that certain parts of the cableway devices for transporting people are worn, damaged, destroyed or have defects in the material, therefore they are no longer suitable for further use and do not meet the regulations and standards, and they need to be replaced.
