Why Wiring Automation is as Much About Supply Chain Re-Engineering as Manufacturing Efficiency
Since the global pandemic and the start of the war in Ukraine, the majority of companies have experienced negative effects on their business. The global supply chain model continues to suffer knock-on effects such as labor shortages, demographic changes such as ageing workforces, inflation, regional conflicts, piracy and growing geopolitical tensions between some of the world’s largest trading partners.
One often overlooked aspect is the production of wire harness assemblies. These are vital components found in vehicles, aircraft, defense systems, satellites, spacecraft, telecommunications infrastructure, data centers and even smart buildings. Wire harnesses involve bundling and terminating wires and to achieve better security against vibrations, abrasion and moisture.
