6 December, 2021It is true that the COVID-19 pandemic has undoubtedly dealt a setback to the wire and cable manufacturing industry, necessitating it to deal with supply chain realignments and production bottlenecks. To manage this complex and dynamic situation, wire and cable companies have been pivoting their focus onto agile product development and innovation, amongst others, to pave the way for a better future. Particularly, the increasing adoption and installation of sophisticated equipment and systems in the wake of Industry 4.0 has subsequently led to the need for durable and reliable components, like smart wires and cables. To cater to the growing requirements of fast operating speeds, abrasion, and bending, smart wires and cables have indeed become indispensable. Adding to it, environmental protection and sustainability awareness have been leading to an increased demand for electric and hybrid vehicles. As this market expands, the demand for wires, cables, and harnesses for equipping automobiles will only rise. A major factor that will boost the wire and cable market's growth in the coming years will be the investments in the 5G network. The technology has the potency to satisfy the burgeoning need for high-speed and connected communication or systems. On that front, 5G will enable the businesses to utilize a dedicated bandwidth. The benefits of this include faster information transfer, reduced risk of network transfer interruptions, and fewer chances of connection outages ­ all essential for an industry that relies on efficiency.In this edition of Manufacturing Outlook, we bring you the story of some of the most successful wire and cable solution providers that are leveraging innovative technologies to deliver the best outcomes for their clients.
