Cables and Connectors for Automotive Production Lines

Automotive plants run at a pace that leaves very little room for unplanned stoppages. AP Technology supplies cables and connectors for automotive production lines, covering robots, conveyors, assembly stations and the tooling used on the track. High flex cable, hybrid connectors and tested assemblies are all relevant here. Control cable for hi-tech automotive applications forms part of the range, and quick locking connectors help to shorten the time needed for installation and changes. Cable stocked for automation includes servo, robotic, encoder and decoder, defence standard, Siwo-Kul and hybrid types, along with PROFIBUS PA, PROFINET, INTERBUS, MULTIBUS, CAN bus and DeviceNet cable. Bespoke and custom-made cable is available as well. Servo and feedback cable is offered in styles compatible with the major servo motor and drive manufacturers. Connectors complete the picture. M17, M23 and M40 ranges support quick lock Speedtec coupling, EMC shielded housings and IP66/67 sealing when connected, which suits machinery that is vibrating, moving and regularly maintained.

Bringing the cable, connector, glands and assembly work through one supplier also means one conversation when something needs changing. Based in Hayes with stock held in the UK, AP Technology ships to manufacturers, subcontractors, installers and resellers worldwide. The company is ISO 9001 quality accredited and works from design, sourcing and manufacture through to delivery, so one technical sales team can look after a project from the first question to the final consignment.
