    About Ourselves

    Wyssen Seilbahnen AG has been working in the construction of material ropeways since 1926. With the introduction of the Skyline Crane in 1939 by Wyssen, a new decade was started in the way mountain forests could be harvested economically and ecologically. Still today Wyssen Switzerland is leading the market in the section of Skyline Cranes and Material Ropeways. The latest models Carriages of Wyssen are setting the standards of todays developement in this business. Top qualtity, functionality, reliability, operational and easy to use are the characteristics of our products.

    Our StaffOur greatest strength consists of our qualified and motivated employees. The majority of these live in the immediate vicinity, and have been with our company for many years.

    Our Products Sled Yarders (cable winches) are used as traction or braking machines for driving cableways to transport the carriage of the skyline crane or cableway.

    Carriages are moved on the skyline cable by the sled yarder with the help of the mainline cable. In principle, the load that is being transported is suspended on the carriage and transported along the skyline cable.

    Motorised Skyline Cranes are equipped with a engine to move the hoisting cable, which is wound around a drum on the carriage. The standard model is pulled using a sled yarder. Motorised skyline cranes are used on construction sites.

    Single-Line Cableways are self-driven units for smaller payloads in the range of 200 to 500 kg.

    Cableway Accessories for the installation, maintenance and operation of cableways, such as cable tensioning equipment, cableway intermediate supports, cable support saddles for intermediate supports, cable clamps, safety belts for climbing towers, pulley-blocks etc.

    Avalanche Control Systems are used for the artificial release of avalanches in order to safeguard ski slopes, roads, settlements or other installations.

    Special InstallationsIn this section, almost everything is produced that has something to do with a ropeway, even in the remotest way. These include, for example a bungee-jumping ramp with a retrieval winch, which was installed on the wall of a dam, or a transportation cableway for the transportation of gravel in a gravel pit that shortens a long detour for trucks in an elegant way by crossing a river.

    Our Customers

    Our customers are quality conscious companies for whom the flexibility, continuous innovation and enormous cableway know-how are important facts. Thanks to the continuity and availability of machines and replacement parts over decades, we will continue to serve our large and ever increasing number of regular customers to their complete satisfaction.

    Logging Companies still constitute the core business of the company. More and more installations are also going to specialised Cableway Companies, who take over the often very demanding transportation of materials for the construction of mountain aerial tramways, gas pipelines, pressure lines for hydroelectric power plants, bridges etc.Ski Resort Companies use in addition to systems for avalanche conrol also skyline crane accessories or cable winches (Sled Yarders) for the maintenance work on their own cable cars or ski lifts, as well as retrieving winches.Owners of Mountain Cabins often find an economical solution for the transportation of material to their remote houses.

    Wyssen Sled Yarders

    As a result of decades of experience in the construction of sled yarders, and thanks to the continuous further development, high-performance machines have been created that are characterised above all by their mobility, excellent quality, high performance, safety and long service life.

    Thanks to their lightweight construction from high quality materials, Wyssen sled yarders find a wide range of applications in forestry and in the construction industry. They are predominantly used as the drive units of skyline crane installations, as the traction unit for heavy skyline cables, as drives for sloping elevators and as installation or retrieval winches. When fitted with a circular drive disc, it can also be used as a circular drive for material cableways.

    The sled runners, which are available in narrow or wide style according to your wishes and the type of sled yarder, offer a good cross-country capability; these are therefore suitable as mounting winches.

    The large drum diameter ensures a very long service life for the mainline cables. In the models with a hydrostatic drive, the speed, traction and the direction of the drum rotation is fully adjustable to the given circumstances with a single control lever. With the skyline crane, loads can be hauled, hoisted, carried uphill and lowered using the winch. Downhill runs are usually controlled by the air brake. This high-performance brake, which

    Wyssen sled yarders are the traction machines. Unsurpassed in quality, service life and performance.

    HY-2 Carriage

    The latest development is the extremely compact, remote controlled Wyssen carriage HY-2.

    The patented system is fabricated from high strength steel, 4 times stronger than common steel. Thanks to the remote control, the operator in the forest can stop and secure the carriage at the exact right location.

    The mainline clamp allows the carriage to be released while the load is raised or lowered, permitting movement to a new location and re-clamping to the cable.

    This facilitates the sideways pulling of the load and protects the remaining timber growth from damage.As soon as the hook is drawn tight into the carriage, the skyline grip automatically releases, allowing travel of the unit. When under tension, the hook is secured against rotation, preventing damage to the mainline.

    The carriage travels over the heavy-duty Wyssen support saddles.

    The mechanical mainline safety feature activates an emergency stop if the mainline is parted. In the event that severe swinging motion causes the grip

    to clamp to the side of the skyline, the clamping process would be repeated until the carriage stops.An unintentional release by slackening of the mainline while passing a tower is prevented by the control system

    The perfect carriage for your mobile skyline crane.

    Advantages of the HY-4 and the HY-7

    . Novel conception with very few moving parts . Self-contained compact construction with moving parts on the inside. Easy to service despite the compact construction . Minimum wear to skyline cable due to 4 large glide pulleys. Minimum wear to mainline cable through the increased size of the lif-ting pulley. Plenty of room for the simplified pull-in of the mainline cable. Smooth passage over the supports thanks to the 4 guide pulleys. Passes over large and small WYSSEN support saddles. Complete construction made from high-grade steel. Safety guards to prevent derailment from the skyline cable, allowing fast travelling across saddles. Large swinging angle of pendulum. Very careful handling of the skyline cable thanks to the special clamping grove. Screwed construction, allowing the chassis to be dismantled into small replaceable parts. Standard cable breakage safety device

    The ideal unit for long-distance cableways.

    The HY-4 and HY-7 carriages are characterised by 4 guide pulleys and a pendulum to support the load hook and to relieve the mainline cable while travelling. As a result, the mainline cable will not be damaged, even by the heaviest impacts due to long timber loads.

    Various options are possible:- Remote radio control of the

    clamping to the skyline cable- Mainline cable clamp in the

    pendulum- 3-cable drum slack-pulling device- Motorised slack-pulling device with

    the power unit as trailer For the transportation of long and heavy goods, a trailer with a transport bar is installed.

    The carriages are all equipped with a mainline cable breakage safety device.

    Wyssen Skyline Crane

    Our system can be used to harvest timber from entire valley slopes with the minimum of development costs and the carriage, which transports the load, requires only one Skyline cable with a single mainline cable. Loads are yarded in one easy opera-tion from either side over the entire length of the Skyline, are raised to the clamped carriage on the Skyline where they are transported up or downhill and then lowered to the roadside landing. Note that since the logs are directly yarded to the carriage, the

    The Wyssen Car-riages can be remotely controlled by radio or work automatically as soon as it comes to a stop and clamps to the Skyline cable. Then, by providing a „slack“ mainline cable from the sled yarder, the carriage load hook is lowered where it can be attached to the load. The load is then raised to the car-riage and when the load hook is engaged inside the carriage, the clamp mechanism will be released from the Skyline. The load can then be transported up or downhill as required.

    The productive and economic material trans-port and logging in the mountains.

    high upward lift (as applied from the mainline cable) aids to raise one end of the logs and lift them over ob-stacles so that „hang ups“ are gener-ally avoided.

    Environmentally, the forest ground and most residual trees are protected by the Wyssen Skyline Crane, while still providing a sound economic alternative for the harvesting of timber on steep moun-

    tainous slopes.

    The Skyline is usually anchored and tensioned to trees or bur-ied logs (deadman anchors).

    Under its own power the sled yarder pulls itself to the top operating station

    on the mountain. It can also be transportet by helicopter.

    The Sled Yarder is used for both the installation and operation of the Wyssen Skyline Crane. The mainline cable, which is stored on the drum of the sled yarder, hauls the loaded or unloaded carriage uphill.

    During downhill operation the car-riage is braked by the mainline cable with the air-brake supplying the nec-essary retarding force to regulate the speed. Fitted inside the drum of the sled yarder is a another large braking system which acts to stop, or slow the mainline cable drum and carriage as required.
