High-performance, high-capacity terminated fibre tension systems redefining what’s possible across the globe.
Applied Fiber is the world’s leading provider in terminated synthetic fiber tension systems. Through unique experience and technology, Applied Fiber engineer and manufacture rope, cable, and cord assembly products unmatched in performance, versatility, reliability, and quality.
Engineered Design Optimisation with Built-in System Intelligence
Optimise mooring rope design based on advanced socketing capability, potential to safely decrease total cost of ownership via less lower material requirements. Precise, stable lengths for short tether applications such as TLP configurations. Reduce potential connections and offshore handling complexity thereby improving installation time, safety and cost.
Applied Fiber advanced termination sockets are DNV Class Approved for offshore use. As each sub-rope is individually socketed via the patented technology it is also possible to provide real time measurement and monitoring of the mooring system at a sub-rope level, making critical mooring rope components visible and eliminating non-inspectable, blind sub-sea connection points.
Not only do Applied Fiber advanced termination sockets maintain 100% of the rope break strength efficiency but they also enable the automation of a traditionally labour intension process, splicing. Applied Fiber advanced termination sockets are available in a versatile range of connection options including:
Bridon-Bekaert manufactured the cable assemblies and provided installation and tensioning equipment and assistance for the Newport City Bridge in Wales, UK.
