Helukabel develops optimum cable solutions for its customers. The challenges that modern cables and conductors face are legion: moving applications over tens of millions of cycles, extreme mechanical and chemical loads, difficult bending radii or space-saving hybrid solutions – HELUKABEL offers answers to all these questions, which will help you move forward.
And to ensure that there are no complaints during intensive daily use, every innovation is put through the wringer in our R&D centre in Windsbach near Nuremberg. Here, the cables are extensively bent and pulled, sanded and burned. In special ageing ovens, we simulate a journey through time to the end of the life cycle and much further. In accordance with national and international standards, of course. With letter and seal.
