Wiring has remained stubbornly manual, creating cost, supply chain and quality issues. This is why we created Q5D.
Addressing labour shortage
Worldwide there aren’t enough skilled people to make the wiring we need.
Enabling Net Zero
As we increasingly electrify transport, industry and homes, we need more wiring.
Solving quality and logistics
A fully digital automated production drives huge savings
85% of wiring assembly processes are done by hand
As a result sourcing wire harnesses is complex and expensive. Shortage of affordable skilled labour means long and fragile supply chains with long lead times.
Automating wire harness assembly makes it possible to simplify supply chains, onshoring or insourcing production, slashing not just direct labour costs, but also inventory and transport expense.
Q5D automation also means new ways to secure wires in place, integrating them in ways that save space and weight. These new design possibilities enhance the value of the finished item for end customers.
Wiring harnesses underpin the world
Over $200 Billion is spent on wiring harness every year – and demand is rising
Automotive
A once in a lifetime shift to electric and autonomous vehicles driving greater demand.
