Rope Load Simulator

A suspended 3D rope under a controllable load, with real material stiffness driving the stretch and tension shown as colour along the line.

Stretch is computed from the fibre's elastic modulus, so nylon visibly extends where HMPE barely moves.

LOAD: 0%

∞ HOW TO WORK IT

Step by step

Choose the material — stretch is a property of the fibre.
Set the diameter, which sets the breaking strength.
Add load and watch the line extend and colour up.
Run the break test to see where the system gives way.
Read the suggested diameter for your safety factor.

This is an educational model with simplified geometry and physics. Results are indicative only and are not a rating, a certification or a substitute for the equipment instructions. Never rely on a simulation for a real lift, a real splice or a real load.
