CABLE HARNESSES

We create the right connections for your market success

Our company stand for the best connections worldwide. This is because we transport your pilot signals to the precise location at which they will be processed. Economically, reliably error-free, and protected from damage and environmental interference.

We are the leading expert in the field of highly complex cable harnesses. These are assemblies of electrical cables that transmit signals or operating currents. The cables are tied into a bundle using clamps, cable ties, cords, corrugated tubes or pipes, while integrating surrounding metal and plastic components or entire assemblies such as e.g. control panels.

OUR EXPERIENCE BRINGS YOU COST BENEFITS

Our core areas of expertise lie in the development and production of customized wiring solutions, including all mechanical, electromechanical and electronic components. One particular specialization in this area is the production of complex cable harnesses that are subject to particularly high requirements in terms of flexibility and resistance to chemical and mechanical stresses.

50 YEARS OF SUCCESSFUL OPERATIONS

Our cable harnesses are typically used in a mix of technologies with pilot wires, power cables, electronics, electrics, compressed-air tubes, oil hoses, metal components (such as casings), and plastic and die-cast components, paired with a variety of insulation technologies.

Quality

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA
Our quality management system has been ISO 9001 certified since 1992 and guarantees the highest standards at every stage of production, as well as the optimum collaboration of all parties.

ENQUIRIES AND OFFERS

All customers are assigned their own technical team that will promptly and reliably conduct feasibility testing, prepare technical production, manufacture samples, and carry out technical consulting and cost calculations in accordance with the highest quality standards.

DEVELOPMENT

Our team of specialists will collaborate with all relevant company divisions to design custom solutions for our customers. FMEA, sample analyses, and process analyses are used as quality control tools.

PROCUREMENT

Purchased components are tested using established procedures. We work primarily with certified suppliers who receive additional qualifications from us. Goods are tested on arrival to ensure the greatest possible safety at a reasonable cost.

PRODUCTION

We continually improve the skills of our production staff by with special training and introductory programs. We secure our high-quality standards by implementing internal testing, running checks, statistical process control, and regular audits.

FINAL INSPECTION

All wiring systems undergo a final electrical inspection. The functionality of any bought-in complex components used in manufacturing the product, such as display instruments or indicator lamps, is also tested. All tests are carried out in-house.
