Cable Factory Layout and Design

Description of image

Engineering Efficiency from the Ground Up

At ABIS International, we do more than design factory layouts; we engineer high-performance manufacturing environments tailored for the modern cable industry.

In a recent overseas project, we delivered a fully integrated power cable manufacturing facility layout, transforming the client's entire operation—from raw material intake to final cable packaging.

Optimised Workflow: Linear, Logical, Lean

Our team conducted a full-cycle analysis of the cable production process to design a linear plant layout that enables continuous, interruption-free operations.

The result: smarter movement, reduced waste, and faster throughput.

  • Direct material paths from intake to output
  • Minimised handling time and transitions
  • Elimination of production bottlenecks
  • Shortened production cycle

Zoned Facility Design

Where Function Meets Form. To ensure maximum safety, flow, and space utilisation, the facility was divided into clearly defined operational zones:

  • Cable Manufacturing Process Areas
  • Raw Material & Compound Storage
  • Quality Control Labs & Final Testing
  • Packaging & Finished Goods Shipping
  • Maintenance & Utilities Access

Utility-Integrated Engineering

We collaborated closely with MEP and facility engineering teams to embed essential utility systems into the layout itself, including:

  • Compressed air networks
  • Chilled water & process cooling systems
  • Power distribution systems
  • HVAC, exhaust, and ventilation
  • Fire safety & protection System

These systems were designed for optimal performance, easy access, and zero disruption to manufacturing activities.

Scalable Design for Future Growth

Built with long-term success in mind, the facility features modular expansion zones that support:

  • Seamless addition of new production lines
  • Easy integration of future automation systems
  • Scalable storage, logistics, and packaging capacity

This forward-thinking approach ensures that the plant grows without disrupting existing operations.

People-Centric Plant Design

We engineer facilities that support not just machines—but the people who run them. Every element of the layout prioritises operator safety, comfort, and efficiency:

  • Clear, compliant footpaths and emergency egress routes
  • Smart staff flow separation from material movement
  • Ergonomically placed workstations for operator safety
  • Intuitive navigation and visibility across zones

Optimised Infrastructure for Modern Manufacturing

At ABIS International, we specialise in the design of Utilities Engineering Networks for factories, from cable manufacturing plants to a wide range of industrial facilities.

Our approach ensures efficient, reliable, and safe distribution of essential services like compressed air, chilled water, steam, and electrical power.

Whether you're building a new plant or upgrading existing systems, we engineer utility networks that reduce energy losses, enhance productivity, and support future growth.

Compressed Air Networks

ABIS specialises in designing and implementing corrosion-resistant compressed air networks for factories that utilise pneumatic systems.

Additionally, ABIS will create and install a ventilation system for compressors, complete with air dryers.

This system includes moisture and impurity filtering and purification units for compressed air, ensuring the pneumatic network is protected from damage and malfunction.

Chilled Water System Networks

ABIS engineers are prepared to conduct comprehensive studies, design, and implement chilled water system networks for factories and other establishments that require cold water.

This includes the development of heat exchanger networks designed to cool products or the surrounding environment.

Steam and Condensation System

ABIS offers a comprehensive study, design, implementation, and commissioning of industrial boiler distribution networks that supply factories and industrial establishments with the necessary hot water and steam.

Electrical and Power Distribution

At ABIS, we are dedicated to conducting comprehensive studies, designing, and implementing overhead cable trays and low-voltage networks for factories.

We carefully consider the detailed calculations of the cables used and the electrical loads of the machines and facilities.

Air Vacuum Systems

Ensuring Precision in Cable Extrusion

Air vacuum systems are essential in cable extrusion lines to maintain uniform insulation thickness and eliminate air bubbles during sheath application.

Applications include:

  • Providing stable negative pressure for extruder crossheads.
  • Ensuring smooth insulation and sheathing of cables.
  • Reducing defects caused by trapped air or voids.
  • Enhancing overall cable quality and longevity.

Process Water Systems

Cooling & Temperature Control for Reliable Production

Process water is one of the most vital utilities in a cable factory, primarily used in cooling troughs and water baths during cable extrusion.

Applications include:

  • Cooling of extruded cables to ensure proper solidification.
  • Closed-loop water circulation systems for energy and cost efficiency.
  • Water treatment and filtration for consistent cooling performance.
  • Temperature regulation to maintain dimensional accuracy and product quality.
Well-designed process water systems ensure operational stability, reduce scale formation, and minimize downtime.

Hydraulic Systems

Powering Heavy-Duty Cable Manufacturing Equipment

Hydraulic systems are the backbone of many mechanical operations within a cable factory. They provide the force needed for:

  • Stranding and armoring machines.
  • Cable coiling, cutting, and handling equipment.
  • Presses, pullers, and other heavy-duty machinery.

Benefits of hydraulic systems in cable factories:

  • High reliability under continuous operation.
  • Smooth, controlled power for precision processes.
  • Reduced mechanical wear and extended equipment lifespan.

Fire safety & protection System

Cable factories face unique fire risks due to the presence of flammable materials such as PVC, polyethene, insulation compounds, lubricants, and packaging.

High heat from extrusion machines, electrical faults, and dust accumulation can rapidly escalate into dangerous fires if not managed effectively.

Why Integrated Utility System Design Matters?

A well-designed combination of air vacuum, process water, and hydraulic systems ensures:

  • Improved production efficiency.
  • Enhanced product consistency and quality.
  • Energy savings through optimised system design.
  • Reduced operational costs and downtime.
  • Compliance with industry safety and environmental standards.
