| Summary: | A steel cable includes steel wires and at least one light wave guide which is surrounded by the steel wires and provided for detecting load-dependent cable strains, and has a glass fiber surrounded by a plastic casing. At least the steel wires closest to the light wave guide are crimped with the light wave guide and permanently pressed against the casing surface thereof, whereby the cross-sectional shape of the casing surface of the light wave guide deviates from an unloaded shape, in particular a circular shape, and the light wave guide is clamped continuously along at least one part of the longitudinal extension thereof, in a slip-free manner between the steel wires closest to same. A method produces a steel cable of this type. |
