Nexans, a worldwide name in the cable industry, has taken a major step in reinforcing its position in China’s growing resources & transport markets with the start of its Suzhou Industrial Footprint (SIF) project. The completion of the SIF project is key, as stated in Nexans’ strategic plan, to serve applications in the cable market such as rolling stock, offshore, shipbuilding, mining, handling and others. Most of the equipment is being transferred from the company’s Shanghai location since the completion of the building construction during third quarter 2015. The new plant also leaves Nexans with enough space to expand production capacity and to extend local production according to customer demand.

Our new three-layer crosshead THX 100/180 LR is now available for high and extra high voltage cable insulations. Optimized bi-flow distributors enable accurate wall thickness, centricity and roundness of the cable. Short residence times, streamlined flow channels and efficient water tempering allows long production lengths, and smooth layer surfaces. Centering of all layers can be adjusted independently. Distributors and bodies are made of nitrided steel to ensure continuity in production for many years.

We live in an information age where large volumes of data are continuously generated by human activity, scientific processes, and adoption of new technologies. Distilling the knowledge contained in such data has the potential to transform science, technology, and business. It will revolutionize how the manufacturing processes are organized and how they function. To fulfill the potential, data science builds on techniques and theories from many fields, including mathematics, statistical learning, machine learning, data engineering, decision analytics, signal processing, visualization, and high performance computing.

Close to 40 delegates attended our technical seminar held on the eve of the W&C show. All three topics - fiber optic cable lines, CCV lines and services - were well received. Our customers were happy to meet and mingle with our CEO and product managers as quite a few have had long associations with Maillefer over the many years, and were eager to know more about our new product offerings and innovations.

The wire show in Shanghai was a success for the Maillefer team. We met nearly all our existing and several new potential customers from China. We also hosted a number of customers from other parts of Asia who were interested in getting familiar with the latest technology in W&C manufacturing.

At the Inernational Cable and Connectivity Symposium 2016 this October, we presented new limits for ultra-high speed buffering. The global demand for fiber optic cables is increasing at an ever growing rate. During the past 10 years the average yearly global growth has been 17 % and it is projected to keep increasing. At the same time the market has seen very tight competition between the margins. The key to this problem is in increasing the efficiency of cable manufacturing lines.
