How we build our cable drums

Three and a half minutes from the plant in Zahutyń near Sanok, Poland. From the log on the storage yard, through the sawmill and the flange forming lines, to drum assembly and loading onto the trailer.

Fallwood — wooden cable drum production3:36

A film from the plant in Zahutyń: the sawmill, flange forming lines, assembly and loading of cable drums.

What the film shows

Storage yard and sawmill

Pine from Subcarpathia reaches our own sawmill. Cutting, grading and preparing the material for flanges and core staves.

Flange forming

The forming line cuts the flanges to diameter and drills the axle bore, the holes for tie rods and the driver holes.

Drum assembly

Core staves, tie rods, bolting the structure together. The drum is built to the dimensions agreed with the customer.

Marking and loading

IPPC / ISPM 15 marking, documentation and loading onto the trailer. From here the drums travel to cable plants across the European Union.
