CABLES + ACCESSORIES ROUND UP
Save time with automated cable identification
Well identified cables often are a customer
requirement. They are also necessary to
deliver standardised cable assemblies
and to produce more efficiently. However,
identifying cables can be very time con-
suming, especially if it is done manually.
By automating cable identification you can
save time, comply with customer require-
ments, deliver standardised assemblies
and produce more efficiently all at once.
Save time and increase quality
A manual cable identification process
quickly becomes a bottleneck that slows
down production output, especially when
large volumes of cables need to be identi-
fied. Cable sleeves, wrap-around and self-
laminating labels can be applied a lot faster
with cable sleeve and label print and apply
systems. Reliable print and apply systems
also increase the quality of your cable
identification by always applying sleeves
and labels in the exact same way.
Reliable print and apply systems
Brady Corporation offers reliable print
and apply systems for cable identification
sleeves and labels that enable efficiency
gains in a range of production processes.
The Wraptor Wire ID Printer Applicator for
example, enables companies to automati-
cally print and apply self-laminating cable
labels in seconds. With the BBP72 Double
Sided Printer, both sides of a cable sleeve
can be printed simultaneously, and apply-
ing a sleeve has never been faster than with
the BSP45 Automated Sleeve Applicator.
To enable optimal efficiency gains, all
print and apply systems can be delivered
with on-site implementation support and
maintenance.
High quality labels and sleeves
Brady offers a wide range of high quality
identification materials, including wrap-
around labels, self-laminating labels and
cable sleeves that comply with industrial
standards. These labels can resist extreme
conditions, including abrasion, moisture,
fuels, chemicals, UV-exposure and high
temperatures. Durable, quality identifica-
tion solutions usually have to be applied
only once and they remain intact and legi-
ble throughout entire production processes
and over time so you don't have to waste
time replacing any cable identification.

Specifying quality cables saves lives
When buying cables for mission-critical applications such as secu-
rity, fire and CCTV video transmission, installers should make their
cabling choice as if their own lives depend on it.
To use anything but the best, most reliable cable, which has been
especially designed for the job, may be deemed as negligent, as
failure at a critical point when the system is needed the most, may
have costly repercussions when it comes to property or loss of lives.
To ensure reliable performance under all conditions, specialist
cable and accessories manufacturer, Helukabel, has developed
fit-for-purpose solutions to meet all mission-critical applications
including security system, fire alarm cables and video cables. To
meet the most stringent requirements, the company has devel-
oped a full range of material types to ensure performance under
all conditions.
Every occasion
Ranging frm ultra-ruggered, halogen-free, super shielded, flame
retardant or fire, chemical and shock proof cables, to shielded
cables to ensure data integrity and high quality video cables, the
choice of cables is large enough to satisfy almost all requirements.
In addition, if necessary, custom-made cables can be ordered and
manufactured to exact requirements.
The cables are manufactured to be easier-to-in-
stall [Fast- Connect] and have carefully engineered
features, such as extra flexibility, easy running,
colour coding and numbering that is designed to
assist installers on site. Additional accessories such
as intrinsically safe enclosures, glands, connec-
tors, protection tubes, termination and connection
sleeves and lugs etc, are available to make the professional work
of installers easier to accomplish. Technical personnel locally, as
well as global experts, are available to assist with the specification
and selection of cables, accessories and dedicated tools to ensure
the success of projects from start to finish.
The correct security cables need to be specified wherever human
life and material assets must be protected, including applications
in industrial complexes, power stations, hotels, airports, under-
ground railway networks, hospitals
and outpatient clinics, shopping
centres, data processing centres,
theatres, cinemas, in multi-story
buildings, public places, schools,
mining sites, offshore plants, traffic
communication, emergency power
supply and alarm systems.
