Cage rope attachments are important part of mine hosting systems and their maintenance is necessary in a mining facility. In this paper the mine hoist rope attachment assembly from Coal Mine Zenica, excavation "Raspotocje", is considered and investigated. The original design dimensions of rope attachment assembly parts are altered in order to reduce weight whilst satisfying all design and safety criteria. Different design scenarios of rope attachments parts are analysed by FEM software and as a result of the investigation the improved design of rope attachment assembly is proposed.
