Why is proper tension control crucial during the cable pulling process, and how is it managed?
2025-08-15Answer: Proper tension control is paramount to protect the integrity and longevity of the cable. Excessive pulling force can lead to permanent damage, such as stretched conductors or compromised insulation, which can result in premature cable failure.
To manage tension effectively, we recommend:
-
Tension Monitoring: Our advanced Cable Pulling Winches are equipped with digital tension monitoring systems that provide real-time feedback. This allows the operator to maintain the pulling force within the cable manufacturer's specified limits.
-
Appropriate Tools: The use of specialized tools, such as anti-twist Swivels and cable grips that distribute the load evenly, also helps to prevent damage by ensuring the pulling force is applied correctly.
-
Calculation and Planning: By performing a pull tension calculation during the planning phase, you can select the correct equipment and pulling rope, ensuring the entire procedure is well within safe operating parameters.
At Ningbo Changshi, our equipment is designed with these critical safety factors in mind, providing you with the tools necessary to execute a professional, safe, and efficient cable pull.
