Tug lines are one of the most used pieces of equipment in the marine industry because they are subject to high tensile forces and significant friction during each use.
One major concern for a tugboat crew is care of the towing wire. Miles of towing across rough seas in extreme conditions can damage the cable to a point where it will have to be replaced. SENSY’s marine-grade tensiometers ensure constant monitoring during a cable’s service life to ensure its safe operation.
