The right gauge conductors are key to making your custom design cables as effective as possible. It’s no secret that creating custom design cables is the best way to ensure your product or equipment meets all of your specifications. Because the conductor gauge directly affects the flow of electricity or signal through the final product,… Continue Reading
Custom cable assemblies offer many benefits over off-the-shelf products…including cost. It’s possible there’s a standard cable that matches the needs of your equipment perfectly. However, it’s much more likely that you will have to make do with something that is almost right, which can lead to technical issues that can cause bigger problems down the… Continue Reading
A reputable cable assembly manufacturer ensures reliable products with a solid quality control process. The quality and reliability of the wires and cables a cable assembly manufacturer produces is often of paramount importance. This is especially true of cables and wires designed for military or medical applications, where the safety and longevity of the product… Continue Reading
Wire harnesses can be tricky without the help of an experienced wire and cable manufacturer. At its most basic, a wire harness is an effective way to organize wires or cables by grouping or bundling them together in order to transmit signal or electrical power. They can be used in almost any application that requires… Continue Reading
Choosing between solid and stranded conductors is one of the first decisions made in a custom cable design. There are two main choices a cable assemblies manufacturer has for the conductor when designing a custom cable: solid and stranded. The most basic difference is obvious when you peel back the jacketing and look at the… Continue Reading
The right materials can make or break the function of a custom coil cord. A coil cord manufacturer does more to create a custom coil cord than just curl a straight cord into a spiral. Because they are meant to extend and retract, materials must be somewhat flexible in addition to the technical requirements dictated… Continue Reading
Your choice of filler materials can affect the sequence of components, the strength, and even the appearance of your custom cable. When meeting with a cable assembly manufacturer, filler materials might not be at the top of your list of subject to discuss. However, filler material is an important component of your finished custom cable… Continue Reading
There are a few things you can ask about to ensure your custom coil cord has the quality you require. Many manufacturers are able to produce a custom coil cord to a wide variety of specifications. However, it can be difficult to tell you have a quality product with a quick visual inspection. Each element,… Continue Reading
Most people don’t spend a lot of time thinking about the wire harnesses that are literally all around them. In many cases, these wire harnesses are powering or carrying information to equipment we use every day at home or at our jobs. Since they tend to be hidden away, we often don’t realize how important… Continue Reading
There are many reasons to create a prototype for your custom cable assembly, but one of most compelling is that it helps you ensure your finished assembly will function as expected. Prototyping makes it possible to extrude a cable with the appropriate voltage, required wire gauge, and optimal heat rating without any guesswork. Even further,… Continue Reading
