Automated, standardised, fast: international readycable® production facilities

Fully equipped readycable® factories for drive cables suitable for 24 manufacturer standards in Spain, Turkey, UK and Germany.

Since delivery times and delivery reliability are becoming increasingly important in all areas, igus has set up additional readycable productions at hotspots in Europe. All locations use existing processes in order to serve your customers courteously and quickly. In addition to the previous assembly units in the USA, China, Brazil, India and other countries, igus Turkey, igus Spain and igus UK now have ultra-modern and automated harnessing lines for igus drive technology.

In addition to identical machine selection, the same testing and documentation methods are used to meet the company's existing standards and lean methods. All employees are trained at the headquarters in Cologne in order to be able to guarantee consistently high quality at your production site later on.

Likewise, all ready-to-connect readycable units produced will undergo a 100% digital test in our own test field. Subsequently, the drive cables marked with the test seal are sent to the customer by the fastest possible means.

As usual, the customer selects from the large range of harnessed cables suitable for SEW, Lenze, Siemens, Bosch Rexroth or one of the other 24 well-known manufacturers and orders them directly at the site.

How is the unique igus quality ensured?

All readycable factories strictly adhere to the lean principle.

Lean management is an approach to continuous process optimisation. It includes the efficient design of the entire value chain. Using various methods, procedures and principles of thought, it pursues the goal of harmonising processes and producing a holistic production system without waste (lean production).

The focus is thereby on value-added activities for which the customer pays. In everyday work, however, actions that cannot contribute to the increase in value or even cause additional costs are performed. This is often the result of inefficient processes, which can lead to waiting times, unnecessary communication and complicated work steps, as can be seen in the adjacent diagram.
