Did you Know We Design and Manufacture Helicopter tools for overhead power line work?
When a client approached us for a custom personnel ladder hook for use in overhead power line construction from helicopters, we jumped on the opportunity to be of service and demonstrate our engineering skills.
Since the lives of linemen would depend on this hook, we used a finite element analysis tool integrated into our design software to develop a robust ladder hook. We then confirmed the results with a mechanical test to failure, resulting in a product that far exceeds the rated 5000lb capacity to ensure their safety.
