Traction Ropes

Special lift cables from Pfeifer Drako are used for the highest, fastest and most demanding lift systems worldwide. The lifts in the Eiffel Tower, in the Shanghai World Financial Center, in the Burj Khalifa (Dubai) are just a few examples of the implementation of application-specific lift designs in cooperation with our customers. The innovative drive concepts of the national and international lift industry, such as machine roomless lifts (MRL) for low-rise buildings, are also manufactured by Pfeifer Drako. Our special lift cables, designed for space-saving and highly efficient MRL lifts, are approved in Europe and have been used successfully for many years.
