FAQs

  • What is a Komax Zeta, and how does it benefit cable assembly?

    The Komax Zeta is a high-performance wire processing machine that automates the measuring, marking, cutting, stripping, and crimping of wires. It helps improve efficiency, precision, and scalability, making it ideal for higher-volume and complex cable assembly production.

  • What is your standard lead time?

    Our standard lead time for a first-time build (aka NPI) is 10-12 weeks. After that, 6-8 weeks is standard. This can vary based on market conditions and material availability.

  • What's the difference between UL1007 and 1015 wire?

    UL1007 wire has a lower temperature rating (up to 80°C) and is typically used for low-voltage, general-purpose applications like electronics and control panels. UL1015 wire, with a higher temperature rating (up to 105°C), is designed for more demanding environments such as automotive and industrial applications, where heat resistance and durability are crucial.

  • What are the main differences between GXL and TXL wires?

    GXL and TXL wires are both types of automotive-grade wire, but GXL has thicker insulation and is designed for higher-temperature environments, while TXL wire has a thinner insulation, making it more flexible and suitable for tight spaces. Both are commonly used in wire harnesses for automotive applications.

  • How large is your facility?

    We currently have 63,000 square feet of manufacturing floor space, with room for future expansion.

  • What is a wire harness?

    A wire harness is a bundle of electrical wires or cables that are grouped together, organized, and often secured with protective coverings like tape or plastic. It is designed to simplify the installation process, reduce the risk of electrical shorts, and ensure that electrical connections are easily managed. Wire harnesses are commonly used in vehicles, machinery, and electronics to route power and signals between different components.

  • Why change my design from striped wires to solid colors?

    We currently have all solid colors integrated into our Komax Zeta machines. If your design uses solid colors, we can significantly reduce setup time for our automation equipment, resulting in both time and cost savings. If you're concerned about distinguishing between wires, we offer custom printing and labeling options to meet your needs.

  • What is ISO 9001:2015?

    ISO 9001:2015 is an international standard for quality management systems (QMS). It provides a framework for organizations to ensure they meet customer needs and regulatory requirements while continuously improving processes. The 2015 version emphasizes risk-based thinking, leadership involvement, and a focus on customer satisfaction, helping businesses improve efficiency, consistency, and overall performance. Organizations that are ISO 9001:2015 certified demonstrate their commitment to quality and continuous improvement.

  • What is your average quote turnaround time?

    Our average quote turnaround time is 2 weeks.
