GREMCO WIRES & CABLES

“Litz wire” consists of many small, individual copper wires. Each is specially insulated to minimize any negative electrical effects (e.g. skin effect, proximity). In addition, the arrangement of the individual strands is “disorderly” and as random as possible. This is so as to minimize further negative electromagnetic effects, which arise as of circa 50 kHz.

“Litz wires” are also very space-saving with a simultaneous high energy density. For example, these “bundles” are used in motor windings or inductive heating elements, although “Litz wires” are also useful in inductive charging stations or in order to reduce losses in efficiency (from 400 kHz) in higher frequency ranges.

Our special cables and custom-made productions are created with our close partner New England Wire Technologies. This American company is one of the leading cable manufacturers.

Through constant innovation, we are able to manufacture cables in cooperation with NEWT based on desired dimensions and characteristics. That is why we arrange a meeting with you and NEWT following your cable enquiry during which you can express your wishes and suggestions in order to create the perfect product solution together. We will also accompany you through all the other necessary steps right up to delivery at your door.

Hybrid cables constitute a very broad field. The basic definition describes a combination of media-carrying hoses and electrical cables. On account of this, hoses with several openings are often used, which are called multi-lumen tubes. These are made use of, for example, in medical engineering for catheters, biopsy forceps or in the field of endoscopy. These cables are also used, though, in general industry when, inter alia, liquids being transported through the hose are heated to the desired temperature by the adjacent cable.

MIL cables are mostly needed for military purposes, but they are also being used more and more frequently in civilian applications. Since wires and cables marked by this standard are non-flammable, mechanically as well as chemically resistant, and thin and lightly insulated, you will find a large number of possible applications. At the same time, there is not “a” MIL standard, but rather many different ones. The variations of MIL standards mark different combinations of specific product properties. The big advantage of MIL cables is that all product properties are defined from the outset by the marking and can be adhered to 100%.

UL cables have a broader field of application. They are required in order to be able to export cables to the Anglo-Saxon region. Here, too, there are different versions of the UL standard, which define, for example, the temperature resistance, the dielectric strength or the flammability.
