Description

Producing long cable lengths is one of the challenges manufacturers of subsea and EHV cables face. Furthermore, the purity of the material has to be of the highest degree. It is for good reasons that compound suppliers offer an extra-clean material for the production of EHV cables, but continuous online supervision of the process is also required for complete quality assurance. In this paper, Sikora will introduce different technologies, such as X-ray and optical techniques, that assure the purity of subsea and EHV cables at specific stages during the production process.
