CUSTOM CABLE SOLUTIONS

Custom cable configurations for project-defined requirements.

When standard cable designs do not meet the application, GermanSTS supports the technical clarification and project-focused sourcing of customised lengths, conductor arrangements, materials, connection concepts and accessory combinations.

  • Project-specific configuration
  • Technical feasibility assessment
  • Coordinated cable and accessory selection
Technical development and measurement of custom cable configurations

CUSTOMISATION CRITERIA

A custom cable begins with a clearly defined application.

Customisation may involve cable construction, conductor assignment, materials, dimensions, connection technology, accessories or delivery form.

Technical and commercial feasibility depends on the complete requirement profile, quantity, approvals, available manufacturing options and project schedule.

  1. Electrical design

    Voltage, current, conductor count, cross-section, signal type, shielding and EMC.

  2. Mechanical construction

    Cable diameter, conductor stranding, bending radius, movement, torsion and tensile load.

  3. Materials and environment

    Jacket material, temperature range, oil, chemicals, UV, moisture and fire behaviour.

  4. Project framework

    Quantity, required length, connectors, accessories, approvals, documentation and delivery schedule.

CUSTOMISATION SCOPE

Configuration options for project-specific cable requirements.

Depending on technical feasibility and manufacturing availability, project-specific solutions may include the following areas.

  1. Custom cable lengths

    Project-defined lengths, cutting, labelling and delivery units.

  2. Conductor configurations

    Individual conductor counts, cross-sections, colour assignments and functional allocation.

  3. Jacket and insulation materials

    Material selection based on temperature, media, movement, fire behaviour and environment.

  4. Shielding and EMC concepts

    Braids, foils, drain wires and shield termination concepts for the application.

  5. Connectors and assemblies

    Compatible connectors, terminations, glands, identification and assembly requirements.

  6. Packaging and documentation

    Project-related marking, technical documentation, test records and delivery preparation.

TECHNICAL FEASIBILITY

Custom does not mean unrestricted.

A project-specific cable solution must remain technically valid, manufacturable and commercially realistic. Feasibility depends on materials, conductor design, minimum production quantities, available tooling, approvals, testing and delivery requirements.

  • Technical compatibility
  • Manufacturing capability
  • Minimum production quantities
  • Material and component availability
  • Required testing and approvals
  • Commercial and delivery framework

PROJECT PROCESS

From requirement clarification to coordinated custom sourcing.

A structured sequence connects technical clarification, configuration, feasibility and sourcing.

  1. Clarify the application

    Capture operating conditions, electrical values, movement, environment and existing references.

  2. Define the configuration

    Specify construction, conductors, materials, shielding, connectors, accessories and documentation.

  3. Assess feasibility

    Review technical validity, available manufacturing routes, quantities, alternatives and lead times.

  4. Coordinate sourcing

    Align commercial scope, samples if applicable, documentation, delivery units and project timing.
