ROPERA®, the latest innovation from the South Tyrolean ropeway manufacturerLEITNER, ensures maximum performance and sustainability for all components ofthe monocable ropeway, while offering impressive individual flexibility, low noiselevels, worker safety, and ease of maintenance. A new era of efficient andenvironmentally friendly mobility is here – and all this along with optimized life-cyclecosts.Martin Leitner, member of the board of LEITNER S.p.A., summarises the new ROPERA®standard as follows: “Our relentless pursuit of progress and innovation has culminated in aunified, strong expression that redefines the entire ropeway system, while focusingspecifically on requirements that are particularly relevant for the present day: sustainabilityand efficiency. The know-how of LEITNER, Poma, and Bartholet has been incorporated intothe development of ROPERA®, enabling us to offer customers the best of all three worlds.”Martin Leitner also emphasises that “ROPERA® is the perfect symbiosis of tried-and-testedcomponents such as the LEITNER DirectDrive, the gearless drive technology, and newdevelopments that help us offer customers a product optimized for cost-effectiveness andresource conservation.”In addition to the technical and visual optimization of classic components, such as the ropeguide, the grip, and the premium station design by Pininfarina, digitization with LeitPilot forropeways and chairlifts and the Skadii resort management system are also crucial elementsof ROPERA®.Powerful and quiet: new standards for the ropeway industryWith ROPERA®, optimizing the sources of noise throughout the entire system means:• sound-insulating (decoupling) elements near the horizontal and vertical rope deflection• fewer rollers for horizontal rope deflection in the return station• larger sheave for less vibration and smoother running• tensioning carriage mounted with acoustic decouplingPrioritising occupational safety and ease of maintenanceThe ongoing dialogue with our customers and our goal of making daily work with and onLEITNER systems as convenient, efficient, and safe as possible have led to the followinginnovations:• folding platforms• working platforms on two levels• spacious working platform in the front station area• transparent plastic covers for the tyre conveyors• maximum accessibility of all components in the station• innovative hatch system so spare parts can be brought into the station quickly and easily• optimized maintenance intervalsThe ROPERA® technology is rounded off by the efficient & sustainable construction, whichenables a lifetime of over 40 years and is up to 95% recyclable. As a result, ROPERA®significantly optimizes the life cycle costs of monocable ropeways.The ROPERA® effect: maximum flexibility thanks to modular designThe modular design guarantees fast project execution, ensuring that the systems can bemanufactured and installed within a few weeks. LEITNER thus guarantees maximum speedand flexibility for customers.The first ROPERA® project, the 6-seater chairlift “Glück” in the Speikboden skiing area inSouth Tyrol, embodies the new ropeway standard.Franz Wieser, President of the Speikboden ropeway, is delighted with the debut: “Theperfect integration of all individual parts enables us to make optimum use of the latesttechnology. LEITNER was therefore the logical choice for us when it came to building thenew chairlift. The resulting positive effects represent unprecedented added value foreveryone - both for us as a company and for our customers. We are delighted to be the firstcustomer worldwide to implement the new ROPERA® standard.”You can find all the more detailed information about ROPERA® athttps://www.leitner.com/en/ropera/.
