Cable Joint Clamp Bracket Requirement
Ellis were approached by a company who supply joints and protective housings to repair offshore subsea cables. The company had a design for the outer housing and the joint but required a solution for supporting the cable within the housing.

Ellis Patents Solution
The Ellis Patents Technical Team were provided with detailed CAD models of the enclosure. This showed the detail of the space and fixing points available. A design was developed that used a combination of standard products and a new bespoke design. To validate the design a combination of hand calculations and FEA was used. The detailed design drawings were sent to the Ellis production team and then manufactured on site.
