Northwire-NWI Lab360's Newly Diversified Resilience(TM) Cable Products Provide Cost and Time Savings for Harsh-Duty Flexible Motor Supply, Variable Frequency Drive applications and More
OSCEOLA, WI. – Cable manufacturer, Northwire, Inc. (NWI), launched their latest proprietary innovation, UL 2277 listed Flexible Motor Supply Cable approved for CE Mark. Due to demand, Northwire debuted Resilience™ Alternative Energy Cables a couple of years ago.  The line featured Northwire’s UL 2277 listed Wind Turbine Tray Cable, a rugged, technically advanced construction with high-performance stranding that’s rated for constant flex per NFPA 79. Northwire-NWI Lab360 is the premier partner for the design, manufacture and contract engineering services of custom technical products for diverse markets. NWI Lab360 leverages professional certifications in Six Sigma®, Lean, Project Management and the American Society for Quality to optimize design, manufacturing and quality to achieve the highest quality and the shortest lead times for any volume of custom wire and cable, retractiles, assemblies, connectors, harnesses, injection molded plastic parts and over-molded products.
“Leveraging our proprietary tooling, our experienced design engineering team creates assembly-friendly cable constructions ensuring over-mold consistency and quick and easy interconnects for our valued customers,” explains Harold Nevin (retired Brigadier General), senior vice-president of operations. “Flex tested to over 5 million cycles, purpose designed and manufactured to withstand the rigors imposed on variable frequency drives, our Resilience™ Industrial solutions offer torsional, rolling, variable, bending and continuous flexibility across a wide temperature range of -40°C to 90°C wet and dry. NWI is pleased to offer our valued customers and the marketplace vibration resistant, optimal EMI and RFI resistant wire, cable and retractile cord solutions with the superiority of precisely controlled electrical cable performance,” says Nevin.
Featuring cable power up to 1000V and control circuits, available in retractile cord, composite and custom options, NWI’s Resilience™ Flexible Motor Supply flex cable offers mixed conductors and insulation selections including XLPE and PVC/nylon options engineered specifically for the extremes of Variable Frequency Drive applications. Highly flexible jacket options include TPE and PVC. With a gauge range of 22 to 2, NWI’s Flexible Motor Supply flex cable features a smaller diameter and is ideally suited for applications with limited installation space in harsh-duty industrial environments. Construction options include: Extreme Cold/-40°C, Extreme Heat/90°C, Flame Resistant/FT4, Direct Burial, Wet Use, Oil Resistant, Chemical Resistant, UV Resistant, Weld Flash, Weld Slag, Silicone Free as well as Torsional, Rolling, Variable, Bending and Continuous Flex features.
From Concept to Completion, NWI design engineers engage with customers through every process phase from R&D, new product development, rapid cable prototyping, pilot models, clinical trials, low volume through high volume production, life-cycle innovation and logistics.  Â
