One of the biggest challenges in manufacturing today is obtaining and retaining skilled labor. Wire harness manufacturing is no exception. In fact, one online job board listed more than 900 openings for wire harness assemblers in March.
Component uniformity and product quality often go hand in hand. Knowing this, manufacturers do all they can to find the right equipment that ensures such uniformity batch after batch, day after day.
For a long time, autonomous driving seemed like science fiction. Now, it is increasingly becoming a reality. In the next 10 years, driving as we know it will undergo greater changes than in the last 30 years.

DUBLIN—The global aviation connector market will grow at a steady 5 percent annual rate over the next decade, according to a recent study conducted by Fact.MR.
Stripping coaxial cables places high demands on processing equipment. Several thin, concentric layers must be carefully removed within a single cycle: insulation, metal braiding, foil and dielectric. The strip length must be exceptionally accurate, since the tolerance ranges of coaxial connectors are narrow.
