Interconnect Products for Machine Tool Manufacturers

Machine tools combine high precision with coolant, swarf and constant axis movement. AP Technology supplies interconnect products to machine tool manufacturers, including servo and encoder cables, DESINA options, connectors and glands suited to these conditions. They are used on milling machines, lathes, grinders and machining centres. Drag chain assemblies can be supplied ready to fit too, removing some of the most fiddly wiring work from the machine assembly process. 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. AP Technology provides sense, control and automation interconnection products for industrial and automotive plants, buildings, airports and other modes of transport.

The products supplied are highly flexible control, power and increasingly hybrid cables, with increased mechanical stress ratings for moving, highly moving and extreme motion applications. The aim is to help designers and engineers deliver control systems on time and to budget. Buying is kept straightforward. There is no minimum order value on stocked products, cable can be cut to the lengths you need, and repeat requirements can be placed on scheduled or call-off orders. Custom labels and packaging are also available, which helps when parts are going straight to a production line or out to a site team.
