Control cabinet manufacturing for industrial companies

Cable assembly for control cabinets, machines and plants

Gross Schaltschrankbau cuts cables to length, processes wires, fits contacts and markings, and supplies assembled units for subsequent wiring. The scope ranges from individual cable sets to series production according to an approved cable list.

What does cable assembly include?

Cable assembly prepares cables so they can be connected directly in the control cabinet or on the plant. This includes cutting to length, sheath and insulation stripping, wire-end processing, contacting, labelling and bundling into cable sets. Cable types, cross-sections, contacts, marking and test scope are defined in advance.

Scope of services

Work steps and typical applications

Three cable assembly services and three typical starting points. Scope and depth of testing depend on the cable list, quantity and place of use.

Cutting and processing

Cut cables to length according to the cable list, strip sheaths and prepare wires.

Contacting

Fit wire ferrules, cable lugs and connectors as specified.

Marking

Label wires, cables and cable sets clearly and permanently.

Pre-assembly for wiring

Prepared cable sets shorten lead times in control cabinet manufacturing.

Series cable assembly

Repeatable cable sets according to an approved cable list and reference sample.

Supply to the customer

Assembled units for further processing in your own assembly.

Process

From data set to inspected result

Assembled cables shift work from the plant to the workshop. Anything that arrives prepared, marked and tested shortens on-site installation time and reduces the risk of connection errors.

The basis is a reliable cable list: type, cross-section, length, contacting and marking must be unambiguous. We clarify missing information before production, because a cable cut to the wrong length cannot be reworked.

Production follows the approved data and is checked against the agreed characteristics. We define the test scope and documentation in advance – they differ considerably between one-off items and series.

01

Check the cable list

Cross-check types, lengths, contacts and revision status.

02

Provide materials

Pick cables, contacts and marking material.

03

Cut to length & process

Cut to length, strip sheaths and insulation, and prepare wires.

04

Contact & mark

Fit contacts and label cables clearly.

05

Inspect

Check dimensions, contacting and marking.

Required information

Basis for quotation and manufacturing

The more complete this information is, the more reliable the quotation, schedule and inspection scope will be. We clarify missing points before manufacturing starts.

Cable data

Processing and testing

Quality assurance

Traceable inspection of defined characteristics

Contact quality, lengths and marking are checked against the approved cable list.

Frequently asked questions

Questions about cable assembly

Is cable assembly also available as a standalone service?

Yes. Assembled cable sets can also be supplied without subsequent mounting or wiring.
According to the marking system agreed for the project.
