Cable Accessories
In a Mast Climbing Work Platform (MCWP), the cable holder, cable guide, snagging device and cable drum play crucial roles in managing and organizing the electrical and mechanical cables that power and control the platform.
Together, these components ensure the safe and efficient operation of MCWPs by maintaining proper cable management. This system minimizes the risk of electrical faults, reduces mechanical wear, and enhances overall safety by preventing cable-related accidents on the worksite.
Here’s a breakdown of each component and its specific function.
Key Features
- Secures and organize cables and direct the cable path along the mast
- Prevent cables from dangling or interfering with moving parts
- Ensure smooth movement of cables, reducing friction and wear
- Enhances operational safety by monitoring cable movement
- Automatically stop the MCWP in the event of cable entanglement
- Ensure uninterrupted operation and reduce downtime and cost savings
- Secure cable winding and unwinding as the platform moves
- Keeps cables neatly organized to prevent tangling and kinking
- Maintains consistent tension and proper cable length during operation
Cable Holder Type-1
The Type-1 Cable Holder and Cable Guide are designed to be installed under the platform of the Mast Climbing Work Platform (MCWP). This setup ensures optimal cable management, keeping cables neatly organized and protected from potential damage during operation. The positioning under the platform makes it ideal for scenarios where space optimization and lower cable interference are crucial, enhancing the safety and functionality of the MCWP.
Scanclimber provides two specialized types of cable holders and cable guides designed to meet different project needs, enhancing flexibility and safety in cable management for MCWPs.
Cable Holder Type-2
The Type-2 Cable Holder and Cable Guide are specifically designed for attachment to the lifting frame of the MCWP. This configuration provides a secure and accessible arrangement for cable management, ensuring that cables are held firmly in place and remain clear of moving parts. Ideal for configurations where ease of access and robust cable protection are necessary, supports efficient operations and maintenance, ensuring a reliable power supply to the MCWP.

Cable Snagging Device
The Cable Snagging Device is a safety feature designed to enhance the operational safety of MCWPs. As cables are constantly in motion and under high tensile stress during operations, there's a risk of entanglement which can lead to operational hazards or damage.
The snagging device monitors the movement and position of the cables, and it automatically stops the MCWP if it detects any form of entanglement or obstruction. This immediate action prevents any harm to the cable and ensures the safety of the equipment and personnel.
Cable Drum
This adapter is designed to connect standard mast sections to HD mast sections. It enables the use of lighter, standard sections below and stronger, HD sections where increased strength is needed, such as at higher elevations or when supporting heavier loads. This flexibility allows for cost-effective project planning and execution, ensuring that resources are optimized without sacrificing safety or capacity.
Busbar for MCWPs
The Scanclimber Busbar System is a cutting-edge power distribution solution for Mast Climbing Work Platforms (MCWPs). Designed to replace traditional cables, it ensures seamless, safe, and efficient power delivery, even in challenging applications like positively or negatively tilted platforms. With a fixed installation, it eliminates cable entanglement, reduces wear and tear, and enhances safety. Built for durability and reliability, the Scanclimber Busbar is the ideal choice for demanding construction projects, ensuring smooth operations and minimal maintenance.
