Cable Support Requirement

Ellis were contacted by a mine in North Yorkshire. During the early stages of the project Ellis Patents were asked to provide a solution to supporting power cables around the site. The challenge was to provide a large number of parts in a short timescale.

Bespoke Cable Supports

Ellis Patents Solution

Ellis supplies a range of existing cable hangers but for this application a bespoke design was required. Ellis used 3D CAD to design and develop a solution. The design was validated by use of hand calculations and FEA. Manufacturing drawings were then created and the hangers were manufactured at Ellis. The complete package of hangers, posts and support rails were transported to the customers site for installation by the customer.
