Research and Knowledge Centers
InnovCable: cutting -edge engineering for the challenges of tomorrow
For engineers, researchers and students who are not content with the standard, InnovCable is positioned not only as a cable manufacturer, but as a technological partner at the forefront of innovation . We understand that in sectors such as naval and oil and gas, a cable is not just a component; It is a vital line, the backbone of complex operations that occur in the most severe environments on the planet.
This is why our commitment to cutting -edge research is the core of everything we do.
How InnovCable stands out and innovates:
- Strategic collaboration with the Academy and Institutes: We do not expect the future, we build it together. Innovcable maintains active partnerships with late universities such as USP, Unicamp and Unifei , and constantly dialogues with the challenges presented by centers such as Cenpes and Cepel . We finance master and doctoral projects focused on solving real problems, such as the development of new insulating materials resistant to H₂S gas degradation or modeling of umbilical cable behavior under extreme fatigue.
- Advanced Materials Engineering: Our laboratories go beyond compliance tests. We actively researched and developed high performance elastomeric compounds, capable of supporting abyssal pressure, saline corrosion and temperatures ranging from Arctic to Equatorial. We are pioneers in the application of LSZH compounds (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) Mud-Resistant cable lines are designed to resist the chemical attack of drilling fluids, ensuring circuit integrity for decades.
- Digitization and Industry 4.0 in cables: We see each cable as a smart asset. Innovcable is at the forefront of integration of fiber optic sensors (DSS/DAS) in power and umbilical cables. This allows real -time monitoring of structural integrity, temperature and vibration throughout its extent. For an operations engineer, this means the transition from corrective maintenance to predictive maintenance , avoiding catastrophic failures and optimizing production. We created digital twins of our solutions, allowing accurate simulations that accelerate commissioning and increase project reliability.
- Overcoming standards through innovation: For InnovCable, certifications from entities such as DNV, ABS and Bureau Veritas are not the ultimate goal, but the starting point. Our R&D team analyzes the most strict requirements and develops solutions that outweigh them, offering safety and reliability margins that give our customers peace of mind. When a new challenge arises, such as electrifying platforms to reduce emissions, our engineering team is already working with technical committees to develop high power cables that will make this vision a safe and efficient reality.
For professionals and future engineers seeking to leave their brand, InnovCable offers more than one product: we offer an invitation to solve industry's most difficult problems by connecting the future of energy and navigation with intelligence, safety and a tireless spirit of innovation.
