Fast Ship Cable Labelling

Case Study

Challenge
Meet tight deadlines with efficient cable identification and delivery.
Solution
Fast, reliable tag delivery and close support for customisation.
Result
Quick, accurate cable identification ensuring on-time service delivery.

A large dry dock identifies ship and rig cables with reliable, zero-halogen cable tags to meet customer requirements and help maintenance teams quickly replace faulty cables.

Challenge: Speed of delivery

When a ship or oilrig enters a dry dock, everything must be in place to start servicing it right away. Customers count on the shipyard to help make their assets operational again as quickly as possible. Speed of delivery, for any supplies, is of vital importance for the shipyard to meet customer deadlines.

Solutions: Fast, large label deliveries with close support

Brady is able to quickly deliver large amounts of quality tags, labels, and sleeves. Alongside a fast supply line, Brady also maintains close proximity to respond to questions and immediately solve additional challenges on-site.

Our B-7643 zero-halogen cable marker is ideal for identifying non-exposed ship and oil rig cables. The printed marker can resist high and low service temperatures between 90°C and -40°C, 95% humidity, and UV exposure. It will also stay legible after contact with chemicals, oils, and fuels. Additionally, the cable marker will not create dangerous fumes in case of a fire, helping to protect employees and crews. The cable markers can be printed at Brady factories or on-site at the dry dock using a BradyPrinter i7100 Industrial Label Printer.

Brady also supplies vinyl tags to mark which components have not yet been inspected. These tags help the dry dock optimize efficiency and are very flexible to use. Tags can be custom printed in full colour at the shipyard when needed using the BradyPrinter J5000 Full Colour Label Printer.

Additionally, the dry dock uses a portable BMP71 Label Printer, cable sleeves, and Brady’s B-595 all-round vinyl component label for identification purposes.
