  • How Does a Wire Rope Sling Making Machine Work?

    A wire rope sling making machine works by using controlled hydraulic force to permanently compress a metal ferrule (sleeve) around the looped end of a steel wire rope — a process known as swaging or crimping. The result is a lifting sling with a mechanical joint that, when properly made, develops t...

1. What Is the GT-60 Hydraulic Wire Rope Swage Press Machine Used For? – Core Applications

The GT-60 hydraulic wire rope swage press machine is a miniature, ultra-portable hydraulic swaging tool designed for precision termination of small-diameter wire ropes, aircraft cables, and fine-stranded wires using aluminum or copper sleeves. It is widely used in aviation maintenance, yacht rigging, architectural cable railing, electrical transmission, and precision instrument manufacturing where space is extremely limited and termination quality is critical.

With a maximum pressing force of 60 kN (6 tons) and an ultra-compact design weighing only 2.2 kg (4.85 lbs), the GT-60 handles wire rope diameters from 0.8 mm to 4 mm, producing terminations that retain 95–100% of rope breaking strength. The tool features a single-handle hydraulic pump and can be operated in confined spaces such as aircraft fuselages, mast interiors, and cable trays – areas where larger swaging tools cannot fit.

2. Key Feature #1: Precision Force for Micro-Diameter Ropes

The GT-60 delivers 60 kN of hydraulic force with fine pressure control – ideal for swaging sleeves on delicate wire ropes without crushing strands. The chart below compares the GT-60's capacity against other swaging tools.

Maximum Wire Rope Diameter Capacity by Swager Type (mm)

Manual plier swager (hand squeeze)
2 mm max
GT-60 micro hydraulic
4 mm max
GT-200 portable (20 tons)
8 mm max
Bench press (500kN)
16 mm max

Fig. 1 – The GT-60 handles 4 mm wire rope, covering 95% of precision cable applications while remaining the smallest hydraulic swager on the market.

The GT-60 includes 4 precision-ground die sets for sleeve diameters from 2 mm to 6 mm, stored in a foam-lined carrying case with dedicated compartments for the tool and accessories.

3. Key Feature #2: Ultra-Compact Design for Confined Space Access

The GT-60 measures only 280 mm (11 inches) in length and 55 mm in width, allowing access to tight spaces where larger tools cannot enter. A complete swaging cycle takes 10–15 seconds. The chart below compares tool weight and minimum access opening required.

Tool Weight & Minimum Access Opening Comparison

Weight (kg) / Access opening (mm) Swaging tool type 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 2.2 kg 55mm opening 6.5 kg 120mm opening 95 kg N/A (fixed) GT-60 micro GT-200 portable                       Bench press

Fig. 2 – The GT-60 weighs only 2.2 kg and fits through a 55 mm opening, making it the only choice for internal aircraft and mast rigging work.

For aviation maintenance teams, the GT-60 allows on-wing cable repairs without removing control surfaces – saving an average of 8–10 hours of disassembly time per aircraft.

4. Key Feature #3: Precision Termination for Critical Small-Diameter Applications

Despite its miniature size, the GT-60 produces terminations that retain 96–100% of rope breaking strength for diameters up to 4 mm. The chart below shows minimum pull-out force achieved for various rope diameters.

Minimum Pull-Out Force (kN) – GT-60 Swaged Sleeves vs. MBL (7x7 stainless steel rope)

Force (kN) Rope diameter (mm) 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 0.8 1.2 1.5 2 3 4 GT-60 pull-out force (≥97% of MBL)

Fig. 3 – GT-60 swaged terminations achieve 97% or higher of rope MBL for diameters up to 4 mm, meeting aerospace and precision rigging standards.

The GT-60 features a progressive pressure release valve that prevents over-crimping – critical for delicate 1x19 and 7x7 cables where excessive force can damage individual strands.

5. GT-60 Application Guide & Die Selection Matrix

The GT-60 accepts precision die sets for different rope diameters and sleeve types. The table below provides a quick reference for common applications.

Table 1 – GT-60 die selection and recommended swaging pressure by rope diameter.
Rope Diameter (mm) Sleeve Type / Material Recommended Die Set Swaging Pressure (kN)
0.8–1.2 mm (aircraft cable) Aluminum stop sleeve (AN standard) GT-D2 (2 mm hex) 8–15 kN
1.5–2 mm (yacht rigging) Aluminum loop sleeve (Flemish eye) GT-D3 (3 mm oval) 20–35 kN
2.5–3 mm (architectural railing) Copper ferrule / stainless sleeve GT-D4 (4 mm hex) 40–50 kN
3.5–4 mm (light lifting / towing) Double ferrule / high-strength GT-D6 (6 mm oval) 50–60 kN

All dies are precision-ground and heat-treated to maintain ±0.02 mm tolerance, ensuring consistent crimp dimensions for critical aerospace applications.
