What Are the Machines Used to Manufacture Marine Cable?

Just upgrade Gandhi's spinning wheel, and you'll be right in business.

The vertical position of submarine cable is measured in depth. On the other hand ship wiring cables are measured in freeboard.

Good Luck, Old Salt

It is not a simple matter just asking your question. You have to know how cables are made which requires working in the field of manufacturing electrical cables. The machines used were developed by the cable companies at great cost. They are not about to give away for free their secrets. You are asking for the impossible.

AT&T used to operate a marine cable amplifier manufacturing plant on Terminal Ave, Clark, NJ. They didn't make the cables there but the electronics that acted as amplifiers within the underwater cables. They are no longer at that location but contacting AT&T might be a good place to start. I don't know where they relocated to or even if they still manufacture them but AT&T might be able to help you some. Caution though, getting the right person can be a very frustrating task for you but try and use patience.

Also, if you are getting into the marine cable business shouldn't you know what equipment you are going to use for its manufacture before you get into the market. That's sort of like selling milk before you own a cow and know how to milk it.

Good Luck, Old Salt

It's an oldie but a goodie

I admire you readiness to extend the benefit of the doubt. That is the right thing to do.

However, I'm not sure it is even helpful to take someone seriously after they confirm they have done very little in the way of reading about the basics.

Check out comment #3. Hanging on to the delightfully absurd idea that 'submarine cable' is essentially the 'ships electrical wiring' specific to a submarine vessel, would be pretty difficult if even a cursory review of basic material had been undertake. Wouldn't you agree?

CR4 readers do not usually disclose commercially sensitive information!

To what are you referring?

Anchor cable - comprising special chain links, or

Hawser cable - comprising steel wire rope

Undersea electrical cable

Cable for marine applications are very numerous

etc., etc,. etc.,

Be more specific, please.

So this marine walks into a bar....

A minute later the Western Union girl runs in, yells, "Hey Marine buddy, you've got a cable-gram". Hence the first marine cable.

On a more serious note: (1) If you have to ask, then wow, you really are lost.

(2) To find your way out of the woods, try to shed some light on your path.

Are we talking multistrand cable to use with cranes? fishing boat cable? Electrical wiring? We do not release sensitive information about submarines here, you could be working for a smuggling operation.
