About KTK
Kabel Technik Kiel GmbH (KTK) manufactures highly complex cable harnesses and electrical assemblies for demanding industrial customers. The cable harnesses are entirely handcrafted – based on samples, dimensioned sketches or circuit diagrams – and are particularly suitable for prototypes and small and medium-sized series that cannot be produced automatically. The service spectrum ranges from connection technology with crimp, solder, plug and pressure connections, through the assembly of fully functional assemblies including functional and safety testing, to end-to-end project management with sourcing, purchasing and delivery. Before delivery, every single cable undergoes a 100% inspection. Customer industries include mechanical and automotive engineering, shipbuilding, medical technology and defence. The independently managed company, based in Kiel (Fraunhoferstraße 15a), supplies customers in more than 20 countries worldwide.
