Kistenfabrik
Stand: 09A59
With 106 cable drums – 68 transport-
and 38 production drums – Borkener
Kistenfabrik has supported the
Netherlands in handling the energy
revolution.
The cable drums with a diameter of
4.2 metres were used by the Dutch cable
manufacturer Prysmian to produce
and transport power cables in order to
connect two o shore wind farms in the
North Sea at a converter station in Diele
near Papenburg.
Approximately 150km of 300,000 V
high-voltage underground cables 125mm
in diameter had to be transported via
heavy truck load due to their weight of 40
tons per reel.
Thanks to the larger production facility
– added in 2008 and the recently
modernised and expanded machinery –
the development and construction of the
cable drums has been handled quickly.
The drums, which were needed for the
production of cables, also posed a real
challenge.
