A ski lift is a mechanism for transporting skiers up a hill. Ski lifts are typically a paid service at ski resorts. Aerial lifts transport skiers while suspended off the ground. Aerial lifts are often bicable ropeways, the "bi-" prefix meaning that the cables have two different functions (carrying and pulling). Aerial tramways Chairlifts and detachable chairlifts Funifors Funitels Gondola lifts Hybrid lifts Cable railways, including funiculars Surface lifts, including T-bars, magic carpets, and rope tows. Doppelmayr/Garaventa Group is an international manufacturer of ropeways and people movers for ski areas, urban transport, amusement parks, and material handling systems. As of 2019, the group have produced over 15,000 installations in 96 countries. The Doppelmayr/Garaventa Group was formed in 2002 when Doppelmayr of Wolfurt, Austria merged with Garaventa AG of Switzerland to form the world's largest ropeway manufacturer.
I like how they use little play and pause icons to show carriers moving and stopped. In today's modern world almost anyone who uses Spotify, Apple Music, etc (eg, almost anyone that works on this equipment) will instantly look at that and understand what it's telling you. Smart stuff there.
I'm highly uneducated, so I'm curious... What was the reason behind the lift not starting on the first ring of the bell? Or even the second? I know that both stations need to verify but are there any other steps before startup?
@@Coasterpostalt there was another stop preventing the start sequence during the first attempt. Such as both stations are ready to start, then one cancels the start by pressing stop...the bell will finish ringing
