The 66m Pure Steel Cable Ferris Wheel is a fixed observation ride with 36 cabins carrying six riders each. It suits park developers seeking a high-capacity landmark attraction.
Figures below are the design values for this model. Site-specific engineering is confirmed per project.
The 66m Pure Steel Cable Ferris Wheel is a fixed observation ride designed for parks and attractions. With a total height of 66m and a rotation diameter of 60.7m, it offers broad views and a steady rotation speed of 13mpr. The ride features 36 cabins, each seating up to 6 riders, giving a total capacity of 216 per cycle. It is classified as Class A equipment and built for a 20-year design service life.
The wheel uses a main shaft configuration and a pure steel cable structure. All engineering details are developed to meet the standards required by your market, confirmed per project. The design prioritises structural integrity and smooth operation. The cabin layout ensures easy access and a comfortable experience for riders. The ride is fixed in place, making it suitable for permanent installations.
The equipment requires a projected footprint of 64m by 40m, with a foundation area of 34m by 40m. Installation must be carried out by qualified personnel following the provided guidelines. Site preparation should account for the operating height of 64m and the overall height of 66m. The installed power requirement is 144kVA, and power supply should be arranged accordingly. Local soil conditions and wind loads should be assessed by a structural engineer.
Daily inspections and routine maintenance are essential for safe operation. The ride should be operated within the specified speed and load limits. Cabin capacity must not exceed 6 persons. Emergency procedures and evacuation plans should be in place and practiced. The 20-year design life assumes proper maintenance and adherence to operating guidelines. Training for operators and maintenance staff is recommended.
The questions park developers ask most about this ride — answered without the sales language.
The total height is 66m, with an operating height of 64m. The rotation diameter is 60.7m. These dimensions should be considered for site planning and visibility.
The wheel has 36 cabins, each holding up to 6 persons, for a total capacity of 216 riders per cycle. This supports high throughput for busy parks.
The projected footprint is 64m by 40m, and the foundation area is 34m by 40m. The installed power is 144kVA. A qualified engineer should assess local conditions.

Every ZhipaoRides product is engineered with redundant, fail-safe systems that meet or exceed international amusement ride safety standards. From electrical interlocks to structural redundancy, we leave nothing to chance.
Forced electrical interlocking prevents any unauthorized or unsafe startup. The system requires all safety conditions to be met before operation can begin, eliminating human-error risks.
Three independent door opening safeguards — mechanical lock, electrical sensor, and control system verification — eliminate passenger entrapment risk under all operating conditions.
Dual independent braking mechanisms with fail-safe engagement ensure controlled deceleration even in the event of primary system failure, meeting Class A ride standards.
Continuous sensor-based monitoring of vibration, temperature, and load distribution provides instant anomaly detection and automatic shutdown when parameters exceed safe thresholds.
Integrated auxiliary drive and manual release mechanisms enable safe passenger evacuation from any position, including during power outages or extreme weather conditions.
Non-destructive testing at every production stage — from raw material to final assembly — ensures structural integrity backed by 25-year design life certification.
Our safety systems undergo rigorous third-party testing and certification to meet or exceed GB 8408 (Chinese national standard) and EN 13814 (European standard) requirements. Each ride is equipped with multiple redundant safety mechanisms, ensuring passenger protection at all times. From the factory floor to the final installation site, our engineering team conducts comprehensive safety audits, load tests, and operational simulations before any ride enters service.
