Our applications
Winches
Garos designs and manufactures load pins to measure up to 2,000 tonnes of force on winches or anchor systems installed on offshore platforms.
Anchor lines
Garos can integrate load pins in oil rig anchor lines to monitor anchor tension.
Intermediate buoys
Garos supplies load pins integrated into the intermediate buoys to measure the tie forces and forestall breakage risks.
Pipe laying towers
Garos load pins are integrated into the installation towers to monitor the forces applied to the pipelines.
Offshore cranes
Garos supplies tension sensors integrated into harbour or offshore cranes to accurately measure the load lifted.
Tensioners
Garos designs load pins for pipeline tensioners. The sensors measure the tension during the installation of pipelines.
