Purchasers and buying agents for electronic product corporations need the secrets – the inside scoop on sourcing vital wire and cable supplies and who to steer clear of
The Role Of Wire Harnesses In The Future Of Electronics
best part about the fly-by-wire method has always been its rock solid reliability. This is why the transition to digital versions has been so slow. Nothing beats the quality levels of the wiring method, but it is too costly to be used for the future…
Machine Maintenance: How To Control The Many Variables In Wire Manufacturing
Most professional machinery for the commercial wire industry and the tooling options available are shipped with docu….
Wire Cutting & Crimp Die Machine Setups: How To Limit Variability
Having a great setup tech is key to a crimp die operating properly. Every aspect of the material from feeding the terminals into the fixture, positioning, application and cutting off of the terminal from the carrier reel can create variability in the finished product if everything is not aligned, sharp and accurate.
Wire To Wire Connections: How To Perform Commercial Grade Attachments
Electricity does not discriminated on connection quality and will pass voltage so long as there is a physical link of any size from wire to wire. This creates variability in the quality of various connections because of other factors created as a result of less than adequate connection.
Electrical Resistance and Heat are the two main failures created when a wire to wire connection is done wrong…
Business Models Are Changing: Taking A more Calculated Approach
The idea of the digital transformation comes as a result of innovating the backbone systems controlling our online experiences. Algorithms dictate much of what we see, how we influence others through marketing, and our overall digital reach as businesses.
If we can learn to understand how these systems work for us, we can best use them for our benefit if we can transform how we do things to excite them.
There are some basic facts about how these algorithms function:
Quotations: The Basic Requirements For Successful CSA & UL Certified Electrical Cables and Harnesses
It is a known fallacy that different countries around the world use different limits, certifications and safety devices on electrical products that may or may not be legal and certifiable in other regions such as North America where advanced auditing, safety protocols and devices have been created as a result of dangerous products being audited and made safe.
Other certifications sometimes contrast with CSA and UL requirements so machines and devices adhering to other markets need to be readdressed when that product enters the North American Market.
Being An Environmentally Transparent Manufacturer In Today’s Economy
Let’s face it, planet earth is all we have and it is our job collectively as humanity to take care of it. Each member of society has a responsibility role to play and in business there is no exception to the rule.
Wire Quality: Common Issues Found During Production
Wire mills around the world each manufacture wire with a variety of requirements and certifications governing their quality. In North America, you will most often see the markings of CSA and/or UL as well as markings specific to industries like automotive and aerospace such as SAE, CE, MIL-XXX etc. depending on application.
Every performance characteristic about a wire is defined within the certifications like maximum operating voltage, flame retardance and burn characteristics, temperature tolerances, insulation thicknesses, platings on conductors.
Best Practices For Wire Harness Assembly: Routing And Securing Wires
Once a product is known well enough and starts selling in the market, there is an opportunity for creators to save on cost, produce faster, and enhance the quality of the wiring aspects of the product by having an OEM supplier who specializes in wire harnesses help manufacture the product.
