How to wind up a rope via engines (motion study)

Hi,

I want to do a motion study with my rope-robot assembly. Therefore I have 8 engines which should be connected to a moveable plattform via ropes (see the attached assembly). I can control these engines with the LabVIEW-interface. But to drive a plattform with these engines I need a corresponding connection to each other. Still I don't know how to create a rope (or something like that), that I can connect all motors via the plattform. So is there a way to move a plattform via these engines?

I would be deeply greatful for an answer!

Thanks

Reiner
