  • Patent number: 9075022
    Abstract: A non-destructive test method for evaluating a synthetic rope made of strength member elements includes: treating at least one strength member element to be detectable by a magnetic NDT device, incorporating the at least one treated strength member element into the rope, scanning the synthetic rope with the magnetic NDT device, and obtaining magnetic flux leakage or eddy current output data from the magnetic NDT device, wherein the output data relates to a condition of the synthetic rope. A synthetic rope or cable is thereby made to be capable of being inspected by a magnetic flux leakage or eddy current non-destructive test (NDT) method.
    Type: Grant
