 Summary of the Project

Unique Group’s Buoyancy & Ballast division provided a comprehensive load measurement and data logging system to monitor the pull force of the winch during a high voltage cable lay. 

Client requirement

Our client, a cable laying company, wanted us to provide a solution to monitor the pull force of the winch during a high voltage cable connection project under a 5km wide inland water in the south of the Netherlands. The solution was needed to ensure that, the pull force of the winch did not exceed the pull limit of the cable.
