Emi shielding in custom cable assemblies

The Importance of EMI Shielding In Cable Assemblies

Insulation protects a cable from mechanical abrasion and environmental moisture and spills. However, it offers no protection against electronic noise such as electromagnetic interference (EMI). Shielding is needed to guard the conductor against the effects of EMI. 


Key Mechanical Tests for Custom Cables

Key Mechanical Tests for Custom Cables

As with all products, many electric cable assemblies are made to certain specifications and are designed for particular tasks.  
 
In many industrial and commercial applications cables are exposed to constant movement during their operation. Understanding exactly what will be required from a cable during it's lifespan enables designers and system builders to build a long lasting cable.

Top 3 Trends in the Electronics Manufacturing Services (EMS) Industry

Top 3 Trends in the Electronics Manufacturing Services (EMS) Industry

While the inherent economic benefits of outsourcing or offshore sourcing (in the case the manufacturing partner is located overseas, off-shore sourcing) may differ from company to company, it is no denying that manufacturing outsourcing has seen a steady uptrend over the past couple of decades. With clear benefits in terms of production efficiency, reduced overhead & labor costs, and faster new product introductions, to list a few, today OEMs continue to collaborate with EMS’s to develop their products.
