About ELA Fördertechnik
ELA Fördertechnik specialises in cable assembly, module manufacturing and control engineering, producing customised complete or individual solutions, with all work steps carried out in-house. More than 30 years of experience in cable processing, electrical engineering and control cabinet construction flow into low-maintenance and economical solutions for companies across various industries. The services include crimping, soldering, clamping, shrinking, bundling, fastening, cutting to length and cutting single wires as well as control, data, COAX, CAN-BUS, PROFI-BUS, KNX-BUS and flat ribbon cables. In addition, cable board assemblies, winding and unwinding of cable stock, industrial inkjet printing for marking as well as the processing of Agilent optical fibres including attenuation measurement are offered. The use of the products at locations worldwide is enabled by several international approvals such as UL, CSA, EN and the Swiss railway approval.
