Manufacturing had a great year in 2018, and 2019 promises to be as good. However, clouds are on the horizon.

Digitization is an integral aspect of modern vehicle technology. With each successive generation, the implementation of electronic technology continues to rise.

Auto-Kabel, the global automotive supplier, manufactures cable and lead sets for power supply applications. The friction welding machines deployed in the process must always have an adequate supply of material without excessive safety stocks.

Companies measure success in several ways. One of the most important measurements is their number of repeat customers. For wire harness shops, the best way to gain repeat customers is to provide them an ongoing supply of harnesses that are high quality, economical and specifically designed to meet each application challenge.

Machine designers and builders typically try to keep installation costs low by choosing to hardwire the unit for power and signals.

Safe-T-Cable successfully completed all tests demonstrating enhanced weight savings and decreased labor hours during installation.

When people board an airplane, they bring with them the need for wireless data. This need, according to technology experts, is quite extensive: Trillions of megabytes of data annually for millions of continuous inflight calls, texts, chats, games and video conferences.

Makers of printed circuit boards aren’t the only manufacturers interested in packing more power into a smaller space.

If astronauts ever set foot on Mars, they'll get there with the help of NASA's Space Launch System (SLS), the most powerful rocket ever built.

Automotive innovation is driven by environmental, safety and lifestyle requirements. This means manufacturers are putting more electronic content in their vehicles with ever-increasing numbers of electronic control units (ECUs).
