Project Overview
A cable tray system for ship unloader equipment at a port bulk handling facility in the United Kingdom. The project involved moving industrial equipment operating in a marine atmosphere, where conventional galvanized systems were insufficient — the combination of salt air corrosion, continuous mechanical vibration, and dynamic structural movement under wind loads required a purpose-engineered stainless steel solution.
Project Challenges
- Marine environment requiring superior long-term corrosion resistance
- Dynamic loads from moving equipment generating continuous vibration
- Cable protection requirements under wind loading conditions
- CE Marking compliance for equipment installed in the UK market
What We Delivered
A full stainless steel 316 cable tray system was supplied, engineered for the mechanical and environmental demands of moving port equipment. Self-locking covers were specified across the installation to maintain cable protection under vibration and wind loads without relying on conventional fasteners. The structure was reinforced to handle the dynamic loading profile of an active ship unloader, with the system designed for long-term operation in a marine atmosphere with minimal maintenance intervention.
