In this paper, a self-activated cable spooling system for seaborne winch is developed . The system consists of a hydraulic servo driving unit and a cable position measurement mechanism. To realize the cable spooling system, it is carried out the mathematical modelling of the system and designed the proportional controller through the system aalysis and the simulation. The cable spooling system is tested and evaluated to validate the performance of the controller. The test results shows a good traceability of the cable spooling system under disturbance of cable tension.
