CRANES, LIFTING EQUIPMENT & WINCHES VP AHC & USV at Scantrol.
Selection of Fibre Rope Part of the client design brief required the fibre rope to operate with deck temperatures exceeding 40°C, spooling efficiently under full load or an empty hook at maximum speed, and sustaining extended periods in active heave mode.
Following careful research, Parkburn selected Hampidjan Advants TechIce rope - an engineered rope combining the best of Technora and Dyneema, this construction has demonstrated outstanding performance.
Summary Marty Day, Deck and Equipment Supervisor Team Trident, Ocean Guardian: “The ability to control speeds across the entire range is remarkable, whether the system is under load or not, the AHC feature has worked flawlessly. We haven’t had to make any adjustments since the installation and initial setup. The HAMPIDJAN TechIce rope has worked as designed with precise spooling on and off the storage drum. Overall, this is one of the smoothest running offshore liſting products I’ve encountered, and the unit has exceeded expectations from the beginning.”
This success highlights the power of collaboration and cutting-edge technology, in overcoming the considerable challenges of ultra- deep-water operations.
handling systems across the marine, industrial, and oil & gas sectors, oſten collaborates with specialised suppliers to enhance its systems performance. In 2021, Parkburn established an OEM agreement with Scantrol to incorporate their mTrack AHC Controller into its winch packages.
Andy Lawson, Director at Parkburn commented: “When working to depths of 6km, precision control of the payload is imperative. The proven capability and ease of integration of the mTrack made it an easy choice. The combined technologies offer full AHC with infinity variable speed control up to 2 m/s, the ideal combination.”
