Current topics from EDELRID research

PPE manufacturers carry out a lot of basic research as part of product development, but also beyond this. In this presentation, Daniel Gebel from EDELRID will guide you through topics such as ‘dynamic influencing factors in the sport climbing safety chain’, ‘chemical contamination’ and ‘comparison of fall masses in test setups’.

Reversibilities - On the (controlled) reversibility of pulley blocks and their significance in rope technology
