- Offered through readycable® (individual harnessed cables) and readychain® (complete pre-assembled energy chain systems).
- Benefits:
- One supplier, one part number → simplifies procurement.
- Reduces assembly time by up to 95%.
- Custom harnessing for any application, even batch size 1.
- Optional smart cable monitoring for predictive maintenance.
