corporate news
Sket Verseilmaschinenbau has enjoyed a
very successful business period over the
past few years – almost doubling its staff
and tripling its turnover.
Whether it be as a supplier of individual
machines, complete technological lines
or complete works for the production of
electric cable or steel wire rope, Sket is
seen as a valued partner in the cable and
wire rope industry in 35 countries on five
continents.
Best selling machines for the cable
industry are MKZS/T Central Stranders,
MWR Drum Twisters and MKD Rigid
Stranders, while SRW Tubular Stranders,
MSDN Double Twist Bunchers and MKVS
Planetary Stranders are SKET’s main
products in the steel sector.
Latest developments include:
• A new generation of central strander
featuring a 500kg Al wire bobbin
capacity
• Special-design large Planetary Stra–
nders / Closers for submarine cable
• Long high-speed tubular strander and
large cage-type stranding machine
for making offshore and mining
ropes
The company operates from a 40,000m²
site where traditional and newly
developed machine systems for cable
and wire rope production are designed
and manufactured.
Linked CAD/CAM work stations and fully
integrated processes supported by a
computerised production, planning and
control system are standard.
From beginning to end the quality
management system is designed to
ensure the highest quality of product
and reliability of supply.
Not least among the reasons for the
technological advances with Sket
equipment is the traditionally close
cooperation the company enjoys with
universities and research foundations.
