The art of the perfect cable

We develop optimal cable solutions for our customers. The challenges faced by modern cables and wires are multifaceted: moving applications with more than ten million cycles, severe mechanical and chemical loads, tricky bending radii and space-saving hybrid solutions. For each, HELUKABEL has answers to help you.
To ensure a faultless operation, all new products developed undergo rigorous testing at our Research & Development centre in Windsbach, near Nuremberg. Here we bend, pull, grind and ignite the cable for all it’s worth. Our special aging ovens are time machines that simulate a cable’s life cycle and far beyond. Tests are performed in accordance with national and international standards, which means the quality is confirmed and guaranteed.

Drag Chain Test Equipment

The focus here is on testing products for moving applications in drag chains for short, medium and long distances and at both slow and fast speeds.

Test Tower for Wind Power Cables

The torsion of wind power lines is tested in a custom-built test tower.

Fire Testing Equipment

We regularly conduct fire tests in accordance with international standards such as UL/CSA, VDE, HAR.

Abrasion Testing Equipment

The durability of the outer sheath is tested for abrasion resistance with abrasion testing equipment.

Aging tests

Artificial aging in special furnaces that ensure the quality of the cable.

Bending and torsion tests

To meet all the criteria.
