Improving the bond between steel and synthetic cable (MUCAS)

Improving the bond between steel and synthetic cable (MUCAS)

EN
It examines the low usage of synthetic cable in Catalonia's timber harvesting due to its high cost and rapid wear. It proposes a solution involving a synthetic-steel bond in the cable's last meters to reduce abrasion and extend lifespan. The project aims to develop effective bonding techniques that enhance the cable's performance and promote its advantages, ultimately improving its adoption in the industry.
