Company’s state-of-the-art motors and drives ensure safety and reliability on record-setting gondola system for Germany’s highest mountain

ZURICH -Friday, December 22nd 2017 [ AETOS Wire ]

(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Long queues waiting to ascend Germany’s tallest mountain may now be history. And that is not the only thing historical about the new ABB-powered cable car system that opened today and can take as many as 580 passengers an hour to the Zugspitze, the Bavarian Alps peak that is Germany’s highest.

The cableway breaks three world records for a pendular, or hanging, cable car system: at 127 meters, its steel column is the tallest, with 1,950 meters it overcomes the highest elevation difference and with a total run of 3,213 meters from base station to peak, it has the longest span.

The system replaces the 50-year-old Eibsee cableway and will help overcome the Eibsee’s notoriously long waiting times by transport ... Read more »
