Title: Guillaume Choquel and Automated Cable Coiling
Introduction
Guillaume Choquel is an inventor based in Rinxent, France, associated with Alcatel Submarine Networks. His patent work addresses the automated handling of long lengths of cable.
Latest Patents
Choquel is associated with 1 patent, titled “Cable-coiling system.” The invention describes an automated system for coiling very long cables, such as lengths exceeding 1,000 kilometers, inside a cable tank. A gantry controls the cable’s touchdown point as a cable engine feeds it into the tank, while floor-deployed robots use rakes to reposition sections of cable. An electronic controller coordinates the engine, gantry, and robots to arrange the cable in spirally wound, vertically stacked layers. The system may be used in cable factories or aboard cable-laying ships.
Career Highlights
Choquel’s patent reflects work on automating a complex industrial process: organizing exceptionally long cables in confined storage spaces. The system combines coordinated machinery, mobile robots, and electronic control to support cable coiling.
Collaborations
Choquel’s listed coworkers include Francois-Xavier Abrial and Michele Barezzani. His company affiliation is Alcatel Submarine Networks.
Conclusion
Guillaume Choquel’s patented cable-coiling system brings together gantry control, robotic cable handling, and automated coordination to address the practical challenges of storing long cables.
