Cable & Wire Processing
Companies in the cable processing industry are facing growing challenges in terms of quality and efficiency of their production as the complexity of the products increases. A smart IT solution can help companies to keep up with the fast-paced development in the industry and even more, it helps in optimizing existing processes and related costs.
The era of digitalization and automatization comes with an ever-increasing number of electronic gadgets and devices in our day-to-day lives. Wires and cables are a critical component in these devices, since they are made up of a vast amount of them. Therefore, companies in this sector have recently been experiencing a strong growth on the market. But it’s not just the number of built-in cables that is growing – they also take on more functionalities, which is why the complexity of these components increases.
At the same time, the products being made will be more complicated to process due to the miniaturization of contact elements. New materials will be used while the cost pressure on the companies will continue to rise.
Vehicle manufacturing, for example, is highly dependent of the wire processing industry. The modern car is equipped with parking sensors, lighting elements and camera systems, which require a lot of wiring to work. Above all, the integrated cables also take on one of the core functionalities of the vehicle, which is safety. Sensor data is being collected via built-in wires to gather information about the vehicle’s stability, powertrain systems, temperature and so on. Therefore, it is utterly important that all cables and wires can guarantee proper functioning.
As a result, iTAC brought a MOM on the market which is specially geared to those sectoral specifics. It ensures end-to-end transparency in all production areas of wire processing while simultaneously boosting productivity and quality.
