RHEYCORD® (RTS) brand carries one of the most storied lineages in European cable manufacturing. The "RHEY" prefix traces to Rheydt, the historic cable manufacturing city in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany — home to Kabelfabrik Rheydt (later AEG Kabel, then Nexans Deutschland). For over a century, Rheydt has been synonymous with premium industrial cable engineering. The RHEYCORD (RTS) is Nexans' extra heavy duty reeling cable, distributed through Klaus Faber AG alongside the Prysmian CORDAFLEX and Bitner BiTcrane product families — giving procurement engineers access to three competing OEM manufacturers through a single distributor.

FIMSUS VS PLUS

URSUS® VS PLUS is a fundamentally different cable from the TRATOSLIGHT vertical reeling family. Where TRATOSLIGHT cables are optimised for high-speed vertical payout with lightweight cross-linked elastomer construction, URSUS VS PLUS is engineered for maximum mechanical brutality—applications where the cable experiences simultaneous tensile and torsional loading under heavy-duty conditions that would destroy a TRATOSLIGHT cable within months. The Klaus Faber datasheet describes it explicitly: heavy-duty reeling rubber cable for power supply and signal transmission in applications with high mechanical stress, especially with simultaneous tensile and torsional load, suitable for cable drums for harbour cranes, container cranes, spreaders, conveyor systems, and handling machines

Modern container ports operate Ship-to-Shore (STS) cranes and massive gantry systems that demand unprecedented electrical power delivery. A typical STS trolley requires 18 kV to 30 kV of main power to lift 65-ton containers at speeds exceeding 600 meters per minute. This power must flow through a festoon cable system—a continuous loop of cable that unwinds and rewinds thousands of times per day as the trolley travels back and forth along the boom. Traditional round cables cannot solve this problem efficiently. A round medium voltage cable, rated for 18/30 kV, becomes rigid and difficult to bend. It occupies excessive space in the festoon track, requiring long parking lengths and increasing the footprint of the crane's electrical infrastructure. By contrast, a flat cable lays its massive phase cores side-by-side in a single plane, allowing for an incredibly tight bending radius—sometimes as small as 10 to 15 centimeters—while maintaining full electrical power delivery. This single geometric advantage reduces festoon track length by up to 40 percent, enabling faster crane acceleration and dramatically improving container terminal throughput.

FABER® Reelingflex

When you examine the spectrum of industrial reeling cables available in the market today, you encounter a clear categorization. On one side, there are cables designed for permanent outdoor installation—like the TROMMELFLEX NSHTÖU-J with its heavy neoprene sheath and decade-long lifespan. On the other side, there are cables designed for protected indoor environments where fire safety is paramount, such as the TROMMELFLEX PUR-HF. But there exists a third category of application that neither pure outdoor nor pure indoor cables are optimally suited for, and this is where the FABER Reelingflex finds its purpose.
