In December 2021, the second installation, Booysendal North, was handed over to the customer. For this extension project at its Booysendal site, the South African mining company Booysendal Platinum (Pty) Limited, a subsidiary of Northam Platinum Limited, once again relied on technology from Doppelmayr. This second RopeCon<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> serves another mining area situated in the northern part of the site.

Photo: Doppelmayr<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>RopeCon<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> is a technology developed by the ropeway manufacturer Doppelmayr. The system offers the advantages of a ropeway and combines them with the properties of a conventional belt conveyor. It essentially consists of a flat belt with corrugated side walls: Just as on conventional belt conveyors, the belt performs the haulage function. It is driven and deflected by a drum in the head or tail station and fixed to axles arranged at regular intervals to carry it. The axles are fitted with plastic running wheels which run on fixed anchored track ropes and guide the belt. The track ropes are elevated off the ground on tower structures.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_13955\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13955\" style=\"width: 620px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/2025.mining-report.de\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/04\/Doppelmayr_BooysendalSouth_01.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13955\" src=\"https:\/\/2025.mining-report.de\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/04\/Doppelmayr_BooysendalSouth_01.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"620\" height=\"413\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mining-report.de\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/04\/Doppelmayr_BooysendalSouth_01.jpg 620w, https:\/\/mining-report.de\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/04\/Doppelmayr_BooysendalSouth_01-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mining-report.de\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/04\/Doppelmayr_BooysendalSouth_01-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-13955\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The RopeCon<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> easily crosses this topographically challenging terrain. Photo: Doppelmayr<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>By using the RopeCon<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> system, the customer did not have to rely on trucks to transport the material, a definite advantage in this topographically challenging terrain with its sometimes very steep roads. Furthermore, using the roads only for the transport of people and supplies will have a positive effect on road maintenance costs.<\/p>\n<p>Booysendal was also particularly careful to choose a transport system that would minimise the environmental footprint of the mine. By guiding the RopeCon<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> over towers, the space required on the ground is reduced to a minimum, or more precisely to the tower locations. At the same time, the system does not represent an insurmountable obstacle for wildlife or humans. The track crosses a number of roads, and even wildlife can roam freely underneath the RopeCon<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>.<\/p>\n<p>Doppelmayr Transport Technology GmbH is a 100% subsidiary of the international Doppelmayr Group with headquarters in Wolfurt, Austria.

Doppelmayr is the technology leader and pioneer in ropeway engineering and is also present in other lines of business.\u00a0 Apart from material transport systems the group also designs, plans, and manufactures passenger ropeways for winter and summer tourism as well as for the urban transit sector, rope propelled APMs (<em>e.g.<\/em>, the systems currently operating at the airports of Toronto
