The jig-back ropeway runs two carriages alternately. This type of ropeway can travel across steep mountains, over deep valleys or across long spans. Generally, it is possible for a carriage to carry over 100 passengers at once. It is called the ultimate symbol of ropeway systems because of its significant presence.
Nippon Cable has constantly developed state-of-the-art products to maximize riding capacity and running speed, producing ropeways that have set Japan firsts and world firsts.
Our material ropeways are effectively used in many industrial fields around Japan, such as dam construction and disaster preparedness work.
