Expert Custom Cable Assembly Design and Manufacturing Services
Manufactured in the USA, specializing in large scale custom cable orders
Even the most complex cable assemblies we manufacture all start in the same place—the Meridian design studio. At our core, we are a design firm that makes custom cable assemblies. In fact, we design greater than 70 percent of all the assemblies we produce. Our cable and wire engineers are some of the very best in the business and have the latest technology to design and model cable assemblies in a virtual environment before even the first strand of copper is extruded.
Utilizing highly-sophisticated 3D CAD design and modeling software, we are able to see how different components come together and simulate function. Here, we can still test for continuity, integrity, polarity, and functionality all before we move forward into prototyping with the best components for the given task. It’s timesaving tasks like these that help us eliminate waste in production to provide better assemblies, faster.
By having both custom cable design and cable production capabilities under the same roof, our team gains a far better understanding of the total process, ensuring that quality is maintained throughout the project’s timeline. Every custom cable assembly is unique, hence the custom part. We may need to design cable assemblies stout enough to resist water intrusion, extreme temps, or caustic materials all in one.
Prototyping Custom Cable And Wire Harnesses
One of our greatest capabilities here at Meridian lies in the ability to prototype different versions of an assembly before we ever move forward with volume cable assembly manufacturing. Our team takes an in-depth look at how different combinations come together in the real world and test each iteration with the most sophisticated automated systems available. As during the cable design phase, our cable engineers pay close attention to continuity, integrity, polarity and functionality of each iteration to find the very best blend according to the data set.
Prototyping also gives our team a chance to see how the logistics of the project will come together. We’ll perform cost-benefit analyses of the various components to see which will deliver the project within the scope of the budget and timeline. After decades as a leader in custom cable manufacturing, we have found that it is quite rare for an assembly to go from design to volume manufacturing without utilizing prototyping in-between.
Cable Production for Today’s Advanced Technologies
Cable production capability at Meridian all starts with our massive tool crib. We have amassed well over 5,000 existing tools for connectors, junctions, overmolds, and housings. With such an expansive tooling inventory at our disposal, our team is able to build projects that fit their intended environment far better than off-the-shelf assemblies.
Types of Products Meridian Manufactures
We have the capability to produce a cable assembly or wire harnesses for just about any situation imaginable. Our product categories are defined into five distinct segments:
Every single product that rolls off the Meridian assembly line is going to be 100% tested for continuity, integrity, polarity and functionality before it ever ships to our customers. It’s because of this finatical attention to quality that Meridian is known the world over for making assemblies that can be counted on no matter what.
Certification for Custom Cable Assemblies
Certifications matter in custom cable assemblies because it ensures that your manufacturer is meeting or exceeding industry standards. Certifications we’re proud to maintain include:
ISO 9001:2015
Quality is actually at the core of our ISO 9001:2015 certification. We’ve maintained this certification on our achievement of being able to demonstrate quality at every single touch point of our operations. From cable design and production, to customer service, we strive to make each process that much better every single day. These small and incremental improvements have translated into huge returns in terms of Meridian’s overall level of quality as an entire organization after the many years we’ve spent implementing them.
IATF 16949
The International Standard for Automotive Quality Management Systems, the IATF 16949, is a globally-recognized certification that auto manufacturers and OEMs look for from top custom cable manufacturers. IATF certification means efficiency of process, continued satisfaction of customers, continued improvement, eliminating defects, and looking to remove waste from the supply chain.
UL-Approved Manufacturing Facilities
Having two UL-approved manufacturing facilities means that we have met the stringent standards for quality that Underwriters Laboratories requires. With this achievement, we’re able to put the coveted “UL” circle stamp on the bottom of products and can help yours get approved through a variety of different certifying agencies.
