Kone Corporation, a global leader in the elevator and escalator industry, has introduced a new patent rope guide design for the Middle East region, which is a convenient, high-quality replacement, for almost any brand of rope guide, whether Konecranes or other make.

The lightweight and durable rope guide is made from metal which makes it able to withstand extreme applications and environments, said a statement from the company.
 
The lightweight and durable rope guide is made from metal which makes it able to withstand extreme applications and environments. Its rigid construction is suitable to be used as a replacement part for hoists in various industries including construction, infrastructure, cement or process industries, regardless of the hoist brand, it stated.
 
The guide can be made to suit a wide range of drum sizes and any drum pitch direction, and its modular design allows for installation of devices for new features, such as drum cleaning, side-pull prevention and rope measuring.

The new rope guide is available through the Konecranes Middle East Distribution Centre in Dubai, UAE which services the entire Middle East region.

The centre provides full support to customers with fast turnaround times for queries and orders.
 
“This is a high-quality product which can help extend the service life by reducing the wear of the rope drum and the guide itself. On top of that it is also quite simple and fast to be installed. In minutes, it’s ready for use.” remarked David Paul, the Konecranes service manager for UAE.

The highly-trained Spare Parts team offers assistance in identifying the right parts. The Middle East Parts Distribution Centre has high availability of parts in stock, which has resulted in a significant increase in optimised delivery punctuality.-TradeArabia News Service
