Genalog Value Added Range

Ever since Genalog started selling connectors and cables we have always offered an assembly service. With our emphasis on offering a complete design-in service the ability to manufacture prototypes harnesses, pre-production and small production batches has proved invaluable to many of our customers.


Recently our value added service has dramatically expanded. With the introduction of UL approval (ZPFW2/ZPFW8) in addition to our ISO9001 approval we have made a strong investment in both automated production equipment and key personnel so that today our assembly service constitutes nearly a third of our total business.

As well as providing our technical expertise to any new cable assembly requirements, and being able to offer advantageous pricing from our manufacturing partners, we are also able to offer our distribution experience and knowledge to this commodity. Lots of our customers are under extreme pressure not only to reduce costs but also to reduce onsite inventory. At Genalog we are able to offer manufactured cable assemblies in the same way as individual components through a whole host of manufacturing programs such as KANBAN, POURS, JIT, Consignment stock etc. The added bonus of this feature is that not only does the customer reduce his onsite inventory but also his commitment to finished goods so, in the event that an assembly needs to be up issued to the next revision, there is only a relatively small number of finished assemblies he need take.
With our investment in automated and semi-automated production equipment, manufacturing times have reduced. Overheads have always been kept to a minimum and with the additional services we offer, we have successfully secured business that may have otherwise gone offshore.

Customers can be confident that in addition to the quality of our distribution service, the quality of our production capabilities is assured as all of our production staff have been trained and certified to IPC/WHMA-A-620. This is in addition to our UL ZPFW2/ZPFW8 and ISO9001 approvals. We have also been independently audited and approved by a number of our key customers

We have production equipment for the following connector manufacturers: 3M, Tyco/Amp, Amphenol, Bel-Stewart, Cinch, Circuit Assemblies, Cinch, Deutsch, Don Connex, FCI, Fischer, Glenair, Harting, Harwin, ITT Cannon, JST, Kings Electronics, Lemo, Lumberg, Molex, ODU, Oupin, Radial, Souriau, Takbro, Viking and Yamaichi amongst others.

We build in batches of 1 to 1000’s and supply harness to a whole raft of different markets, from very basic single wire assemblies to highly complex, laced looms for Military and Transport applications. High quality inspection is controlled via our approval procedures and each assembly is 100% tested using our Cirrus test equipment.

Inspection of our facilities and capabilities is welcomed.

We are the only distributor in Europe
approved by Harwin to cut their products


In addition to this we have always offered the service of manufacturing cable assemblies to customers’ drawings, samples and specifications.

We can produce simple single wire assemblies to IDC Ribbon cables to highly complex laced wiring looms.

In the last year we have invested heavily in this area:

  • In order to maintain the service our customers demand and expect we have trebled the production area and more than doubled the number of staff, employing both experienced wiremen and adopted a trainee program.
  • Added to this we have invested in new automated production equipment that enables us to produce larger volumes and maintain a consistently high standard of quality.
  • Inspection of our facilities is always welcomed. We have a number of audits/vendor inspections by our key blue-chip customers (commercial and non-disclosure agreements prevent us from naming them here) and both BSI and UL independently audit our management system.

As well as a multitude of dedicated hand-tools and other equipment we now boast….


Schleuniger EcoStrip 9320
High performance machine for processing stranded cables, wires, multi-conductor cables and flat ribbon cables

Schleuniger UniStrip 2300

Programmable stripping machine strips wires ranging in size from 0.03 – 6 mm² (32 – 10 AWG) and jacketed cables
up to 5.5 mm (0.22“) in diameter.


Schleuniger OC 3950

Automatic cable cutting for the processing of wires, tubing, flat ribbon cable and fibre optic cables.
Up to 15mm OD, 100mm wide.


Izumi Pneumatic
Crimping Tool - AC-5N

Purpose built strip cutter for socket strips and pin-headers. Various pitch and mounting styles are suitable.

Izumi Crimps

Izumi

"Wiring Harnesses" (ZPFW2 and ZPFW8) under file no. E338838. This gives us the ability to produce cable assemblies with UL labels, which is now a requirement for any customer subcontracting their cable harnesses where their end products are UL recognised.

Finally, as well as our ISO 9001 approval we can now offer the Component Recognition Program of Underwriters Laboratories Inc.


Every cable assembly manufactured in-house is inspected to these approvals and tested using equipment such as the Cirrus 1000H+ (capable of testing insulation resistance up to 1kV).


So whether you’re looking for simple Earth cables or highly complex cable looms
please give us an opportunity to offer you a quotation.

And as with our component distribution we can offer all of the tailored purchasing programs
such as POURS, consignment stock, and KANBAN to offer a complete service.
