Reduced maintenance and reliability were the two concepts to which prime importance was given when creating the OMEGA T grip. Its operation is noiseless and it ensures a powerful gripping for a light operating load. The grip is composed of a small number of components. It's viability is maximum. Disassembly and assembly is extremely simple and fast.
The conception assure functioning under extreme environmental conditions.
The coil-springs deliver grip force without an " over-center " action, acting directly on the mobile jaw in order to assure an efficient gripping even in the most extreme icing conditions.

The double detachable grip consists of two Omega T grips mounted on a frame.

The choice of using the double grip depends on the loads and the gradient of the ropeway.

Simple, Effective, No maintainenance

The OMEGA T grip frees the operator of all tedious maintenance : a grip needing neither adjustment nor lubrication outside of the required five-year revisions. The grip's simpliciy renders disassembly and raessembly fast. Revisions can even be carrried out in the rear contour of the terminal.

A portable hydraulic device is made available to operators to allow the removal as well as replacement of a grip from or to the haul rope. Easy to oprate, this device is useful for quickly removing a vehivle in complete safety. It is also useful for dismantling the grip during periodic grip revisions.
