We're always busy in the workshop at Autoguide Equipment, engineering solutions to help make demanding jobs a little easier. Our latest project is another example of this – introducing our Motorised Cable Drum Handler, developed to meet a customer's specific requirements.

Designed to lift, handle and rotate cable drums, this motorised attachment provides a practical way for operators to manage large reels using machinery they already have on site.

And while cable drums are the main application, the attachment can also handle drums carrying other materials, including pipe and similar reel-mounted products.

What is a Motorised Cable Drum Handler?

A cable drum handler is designed to lift, support and rotate large cable drums, helping operators move and control reels more efficiently.

Our Motorised Cable Drum Handler combines lifting capabilities with a powered rotation system, allowing operators to reel drums in and out with greater control and less reliance on manual handling.

The attachment can be used to handle a variety of drum-mounted materials, making it a useful solution for contractors working with cable, pipe and other products supplied on reels.


Designed to Work with Existing Machinery

The Motorised Cable Drum Handler has been engineered to attach to a range of machines, including:

  • Tractors

  • JCBs

  • Backhoe loaders

This gives contractors a practical way to make more use of their existing machinery, adding lifting and powered drum-handling capabilities without necessarily requiring a separate specialist machine.


Making Cable Drum Handling Easier

Large cable drums can be heavy, awkward to manoeuvre and difficult to control. Moving, positioning and rotating them can add considerable time and effort to site operations.

The Motorised Cable Drum Handler is designed to help simplify these tasks, allowing operators to lift and handle drums using their carrier machine, while the powered rotation system assists with reeling the drum in or out.

Whether you're working with electrical cable, pipe or other materials stored on a drum reel, having the right handling equipment can make a real difference to the job.


Another Solution Engineered at Autoguide

Not every customer requirement can be met with an off-the-shelf attachment. Sometimes, the right solution needs to be designed and engineered around the job itself.

With our in-house engineering and manufacturing capabilities, we're able to develop specialist attachments to meet individual requirements, drawing on decades of experience in British engineering.

The Motorised Cable Drum Handler is our latest example – another practical solution developed to help customers get more from their machinery.


Looking for a Cable Drum Handling Solution?

If you're looking for a motorised cable drum handler or need a specialist attachment designed around a particular application, we'd be happy to discuss your requirements.


At Autoguide Equipment, we're always interested in the next engineering challenge.
