IWCS Inc., producer of the International Cable & Connectivity Symposium, and UL, a global independent safety science company, have collaborated to establish a regional Asian conference in Shanghai, China. The UL and IWCS China 2017 Cable & Connectivity Symposium is the region’s leading forum for the exchange of information on technical innovations and solutions in the industry. Based on the IWCS educational symposium format, the
China symposium will be held on April 25-27, 2017 at the Marriott Shanghai City Centre.

“IWCS is an important venue for the cable and connectivity industry and we are proud to join the Symposium” says R&D Director Dr. Mikko Lahti. At the conference Dr. Lahti will present his paper entitled "Exploring the Limits of Buffering Process for Both Standard and Micro Tubes". Dr. Lahti will be available during the whole conference to discuss the results of his work and the manufacturing solutions currently available from Maillefer.

Our high performance solutions offer a wide variety of innovations. For example, the compression technology with tension feedback serves to keep precise control of excess fiber length (EFL). And on our Fiber Optic Secondary Coating Line OEL 40. And with OEL 40///Explore we have even tripled production speeds compared to
conventional secondary coating lines.

Maillefer provides manufacturing solutions for every stage of the fiber optic cable process. The portfolio includes tight buffering, secondary coating, SZ stranding and jacketing lines available for production ranging from long haul cables to FTTx with low fiber counts and short lengths.
