At Fort Wayne Metals, our strands and cables capabilities are built around that partnership approach. We combine fully integrated manufacturing processes with collaborative engineering expertise to help you move from start to finish.

Our end-to-end capabilities include:

·      Engineering and materials expertise to assist with iterative development

·      Complete in-house processing from wire drawing to stranding and

·      Value-add custom coatings and laser ablation

·      Value-add mechanical assembly, including custom crimps, fittings, and end treatments

“Because our stranding and cabling capabilities are part of our larger, integrated manufacturing operations, we are positioned to control the supply chain from melt to finished material,” says Andrew Kritsch, Senior Engineer.

Collaborating with our team tends to start with a challenge rather than a specification. The right materials solution may become clear in a single conversation with our technical team. However, when an iterative process is needed, adjustments to constructions, materials, and finishes can be customized until the cable performs exactly as intended within the device.

That’s why engineering collaboration is crucial.

“With advanced tools and deep material expertise, our engineers can typically evaluate options in real time and guide customers toward the right material with optimal performance characteristics before the call even ends,” says Jessica Hartmus, Engineer.
