Wire Processing Construction
In the industrial era 4.0, control cabinet construction demands customized solutions, short delivery times, maximum flexibility and consistently high quality. Due to a shortage of skilled workers as well as manual and time-intensive work processes, however, the requirements can hardly be met.
„A circuit diagram has an average of 400 pages that have to be flipped through several times during wiring.“
Complexity meets HIKwire - with HIKwire, we offer customers from various industries digitalized, fully automated wire set production. Here, all process-relevant steps are digitized, thus ensuring a continuous data flow: From design to inquiry to series production. Your added value: A significantly more time- and cost-efficient overall process in the wiring of your control cabinet with improved competitiveness and maximum economic efficiency.
„The savings potential through preassembled wire sets including labeling is up to 50 %.“
Significantly more control cabinets with the same capacity
The use of our automatically produced wire sets results in time savings in your production. Manual assembly is no longer necessary, which helps you to counteract the current shortage of skilled workers in the electrical industry. Freed capacities can be used for activities with higher added value.
Increased speed in the overall process
From construction, master data maintenance, supplier selection, and procurement to work preparation, production, and quality control, the entire order throughput time in your control cabinet manufacturing is reduced. Decisive time and logistics savings with a corresponding increase in productivity can be achieved thanks to the elimination of manual work steps, intermediate storage and transport.
80 % time savings along the value chain
Thanks to the automation of all processing steps, such as cutting to length, stripping, labeling, crimping, etc., ready-to-plug-in wire sets can be wired directly without time-consuming reading of the circuit diagram. This reduces internal assembly work to a minimum, speeds up logistics and reduces the risk of errors.
Continuous high quality thanks to automation
The continuous data transfer minimizes sources of error, as no manual inputs are required at the machine. Fully automatic production guarantees reproducible, continuously high quality. Crimp height and pull-out force measurement are integrated.
Reduction of overhead costs and optimization of planning
The entire process is simplified, from article creation and release, procurement, placement, picking, work preparation, and production to inspection. The ability to plan increases. Overhead costs are reduced. Competitiveness increases.
Complexity reduction thanks a complete solution package
From plausibility checks, design, procurement, storage, order preparation, manufacturing, quality control to delivery, HIK is your one-stop shop. The advantages: Time savings, reduction of process costs (overheads), storage locations, order and picking items.
