MASTERBATCH EXPERTISE
FOR THE CABLE INDUSTRY
The automotive wiring harness industry is a highly technical sector and constantly strives to enhance vehicle performance with innovative technological developments in order to boost efficiency and productivity.
The new landscape brought about by the boom in electric cars, both plug-in and hybrid, is reorienting the industry towards new demands to incorporate more sensors and electrical and electronic components in vehicles.
FORMULATIONS
Compound formulations are changing too, posing further challenges to the colouring of cables, which must meet highly demanding requirements on thermal and aging resistance.
TESTED
Cables are extensively tested and subjected to extreme limits, depending on the different temperature classes.
PRODUCTION
Production speeds are constantly increasing, and the tendency towards decreased wall thicknesses and shorter extruders translates into less time to incorporate the masterbatches into the given compound.
