Highest standards. Precise solutions.

Complex plug connectors in industrial applications

Plug-and-play functionality, robustness, resistance to the ingress of dirt and water, durability, optimization of space, and short assembly times are the USPs of a cable assembly used in mechanical engineering in order to meet the extreme dynamic requirements of modern automation technology.

Cable assemblies used by the police

Cable connections in police vehicles realize the system-critical interface between standard on-board systems and specific operational technology such as blue emergency lights, radio equipment and sirens. The precisely assembled cable assemblies and wire harnesses ensure the professional routing of specially shielded cables in order to transmit sensitive data as well as radio and communication signals without interference.

Cable assembly in the field of computer tomography

Because the gantry (the rotating part of the CT scanner) rotates at exceedingly high speeds, while at the same time huge amounts of data and immense voltages have to be transmitted, the requirements are highly complex. These cable systems also require interference-free, high-precision signal transmission and extreme shielding to ensure that the sensitive imaging is not impaired by electromagnetic interference.

Cable assembly for ophthalmic surgery systems

These state-of-the-art medical instruments require miniaturized, intricate cables that transmit absolutely precise and error-free control commands (for instance, for laser or microscope systems). They require materials of the highest quality and fail-safe operation to enable surgeons to perform precise and safe surgical procedures.

Cables for complex safety and alarm systems

When wiring up safety and alarm systems for data centers and banks, the primary focus is on uncompromising reliability, interference immunity and fire protection. As these systems form the foundation for the protection of critical data, assets and human life, the cables and wires used must not fail under any circumstances.

Wire harnesses for the energy sector

Cables for solar power infrastructure that delivers electricity to health clinics in developing and emerging countries are subject to extreme physical and logistical hurdles. Besides large temperature fluctuations, unprotected cables or cables laid above ground are subject to high levels of UV radiation, extreme humidity and, at times, torrential tropical rainfall.

Cable assembly in the field of automation

In automated systems, the available space is often very limited. Through the use of modern technologies and machines, assembled cables can combine several functions in a single component. Special versions are also extremely robust and offer reliable protection against oil, chemicals, vibrations and high temperatures.

Antimicrobial cables for organ transport containers

Manufactured under cleanroom conditions, these cables exhibit extremely low particle emission properties and prevent the growth of germs. This ensures that the risk of contamination is at an absolute minimum in critical sterile cold chain environments.

Wire harnesses according to MIL specification

Security requires high-tech solutions and innovation – also in the defense sector. The focus is on the production of high-precision cable assemblies that are tailored precisely to the extremely stringent requirements of the defense sector. The outstanding reliability of wire harnesses produced in accordance with MIL specifications is due primarily to their unique material properties and stringent manufacturing specifications. Besides an extended temperature range, they feature outstanding resilience, abrasion resistance and highly efficient EMI/RFI shielding. Traceability and quality play a predominant role here, as does supply chain monitoring.

Military wire harnesses – the lifeblood of modern defense systems

Military wire harnesses are the critical neural pathway of an overall system. To guarantee a high level of mission security, they meet clearly defined performance requirements:

Property Requirement / Verification
Robustness (ruggedization) Against shock, vibration and environmental influences
Temperature range -55 °C to +125 °C
EMC protection Effective shielding according to MIL-C-27500
Plug connectors Military plug connectors according to MIL-DTL specifications
Weight and installation space Weight- and space-optimized design
Moisture and media resistance Resistant to water, oils, fuels, de-icing agents and many chemicals
High level of abrasion resistance and notch strength Extremely heavy-duty jackets to protect against mechanical loading, pressure and friction
Durability and traceability Seamless traceability and manufacturer qualification, including proof such as first article inspection (FAI) and certificate of conformance (CoC)

FAQ – Questions that are frequently asked regarding cable assembly

Cable assemblies from Schleifring Cable Solutions, s.r.o. are tailor-made, ready-to-connect cables and cable systems that are specially designed and manufactured for the demanding requirements of wide-ranging industries.

They guarantee the reliable transmission of power, signals and data – even under demanding operating conditions. From development through prototype construction to series production, top quality standards, precision and safety always take center stage.

A cable assembly is a ready-to-connect cable or set of cables that has been cut to length, stripped, equipped with contacts and connectors, and tested in accordance with customer specifications. The term also refers to the manufacturing process, which is also called cable assembly.

Cable assembly involves preparing cables and wires so that they are ready for installation: cutting to length, stripping, crimping or soldering the contacts, fitting plug connectors, overmolding if required, and final testing. Schleifring Cable Solutions, s.r.o. is also responsible for development and prototype construction – up to and including wire harnesses according to MIL specifications.

A cable is the basic material sold by the meter, whereas a cable assembly is a ready-to-connect cable consisting of the cable equipped with contacts or plug connectors. A wire harness combines several assembled cables into a system that connects the electrical components in a machine, a vehicle or other type of device.

For defense and military technology, medical technology, automation and industry, agriculture, security and safety technology, and infrastructure as well as the energy industry. Examples range from relatively simple wire harnesses for hospital beds and CT systems through cable assemblies for robotic systems to complex cable systems for fire alarm systems.

Experienced engineers accompany the project from the initial idea through prototype construction to series production. On the basis of customer specifications, project-specific work instructions are created with dedicated tools and test systems. The goal is a long-term partnership in which we promote technical progress as a team.

Crimping, soldering and overmolding are carried out in accordance with IPC/WHMA-A-620, the internationally recognized standard for cable assemblies and wire harnesses. For defense technology, EMC requirements according to MIL-STD-461 and the requirements on connectors according to MIL-DTL specifications also apply.

They are typically designed for temperatures ranging from –55 °C to +125 °C. Depending on the insulation material used, extended temperature ranges are possible for special applications.

Special insulation made of fluoropolymers such as PTFE and ETFE, or of polyimide, ensures a high degree of mechanical and thermal resilience. These materials are abrasion-resistant and chemically resistant – even under harsh operating conditions.

An integrated EMI/RFI shield made of tinned copper braid protects sensitive signals against electromagnetic and high-frequency interference. The design complies with the EMC requirements specified in MIL-STD-461.

A zero-tolerance policy applies in the defense sector. The suppliers of MIL-SPEC connectors and MIL-SPEC cables approved by Schleifring Cable Solutions, s.r.o. ensure seamless traceability, including documentation such as proof of first article inspection (FAI) and certificates of conformance (CoC).
