𝗟𝗘𝗕𝗨𝗦® 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀: 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝟭 𝗼𝗳 𝟲

Every multi-layer winch drum has to solve the same geometry problem:
𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝗰𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗻𝗹𝘆 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗹𝗮𝘆𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝘅𝘁?

The answer starts with the 𝗳𝗹𝗲𝗲𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗹𝗲 (α). It is the angle between the rope running from the first fixed sheave to the drum fl**ge and the drum's own centerline. See the sketch below.

Get this angle wrong in either direction and the consequences show up fast:

↳ 𝗧𝗼𝗼 𝗹𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗲 (>1.5°): The rope drifts toward the drum center, skips wraps and leaves gaps that undermine every layer stacked on top.
↳ 𝗧𝗼𝗼 𝘀𝗺𝗮𝗹𝗹 (

Precision spooling in the heart of the Alps. 🏔️⚙️

Take a look at our latest custom rope drum, currently deployed high above the reservoir at the Limberg III project in Austria.

Developed alongside Albatros Engineering, this system handles vital material and personnel transport under extreme conditions. When standard solutions fail, custom LEBUS® engineering steps up.

📊 Project Specs at a glance:
- 650 kN pulling force
- 52 mm rope across 7 layers
- 1,220 mm PCD / 1,949 mm between fl**ges

In this video, you can see one of our latest heavy duty machining projects taking shape: a custom drum designed specifically to spool a 𝟰𝟲.𝟲 𝗺𝗺 𝘂𝗺𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗰𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 for subsea offshore operations.

In offshore environments, the umbilical is the lifeline between the surface and subsea equipment. Whether supporting 𝗥𝗢𝗩𝘀 (𝗥𝗲𝗺𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗹𝘆 𝗢𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗩𝗲𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗹𝗲𝘀) or other critical subsea systems, it carries power, control signals and data where reliability is essential.

That is why the umbilical must be spooled flawlessly.

Our precision grooving helps prevent cable wear, crushing and tangling under extreme loads, ensuring the safe and reliable deployment of these vital electrical and data conductors.

Not every drum we manufacture features a LEBUS® groove. Sometimes, the primary challenge lies in sheer size and length.

The drum shown here was produced with 𝗳𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 Ø𝟮𝟮 𝗺𝗺 𝘄𝗶𝗿𝗲 𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗲. While its 520 mm diameter is relatively compact, its 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗴𝘁𝗵 𝗼𝗳 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝟰,𝟯𝟬𝟬 𝗺𝗺 made it a particularly interesting machining project.

Our machining capabilities on this lathe cover workpieces up to Ø𝟭,𝟮𝟱𝟬 𝗺𝗺 𝗶𝗻 𝗱𝗶𝗮𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗲𝗿 and 𝟱,𝟬𝟬𝟬 𝗺𝗺 𝗶𝗻 𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗴𝘁𝗵, allowing us to manufacture a wide range of custom drums with the highest precision.

Whether it's a standard groove or a LEBUS® spooling system, every drum is manufactured with the same attention to detail, accuracy, and quality.

We never stand still at LEBUS®. Our production facility in Finning just received a major upgrade. We are thrilled to introduce our brand new heavy-duty lathe: 30 tons of sheer German engineering precision.

The old machine was reliable, proven, and a core part of our story.
The new machine takes us to the absolute next level:

⚙️ 𝟭,𝟯𝟱𝟬 𝗺𝗺 𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗱𝗶𝗮𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗲𝗿
⚙️ 𝟯,𝟬𝟬𝟬 𝗺𝗺 𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗴𝘁𝗵

⚙️ 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗱𝗿𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁

This powerhouse was built in close partnership with Heyligenstaedt Werkzeugmaschinen and Volk GmbH CNC-Blechverarbeitung. Two partners, one shared goal: 𝙥𝙚𝙧𝙛𝙚𝙘𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣.
