Instrumentation Test and Measurement

Testing and measuring the reliability, performance, and durability of instruments for medical, scientific and industrial use requires a high degree of technical knowledge and a broad range of manufacturing expertise.

New England Wire Technologies is widely recognized for our ability to produce cables with extra flexibility, extended flex life, durability, and low noise-characteristics that are essential in medical electronics, scientific research, geology, robotics, and general electronics.

Our ultra flexible cables are the right choice when the unrestricted motion of an instrument is vital. We combine stranded conductors and thin-wall extrusions to produce cables with extreme flexibility. For applications where high reliability in repeated motion operations is a must, our high-flex multi-conductor cables unite high strength alloys with abrasion-resistant plastic insulators to create cable products with superior, long-term flexibility. Our low-noise cables like NEWtral® help reduce or eliminate internal noise generation to improve the accuracy and reliability of electronic signals. And our geophysical and scientific cables are built to withstand the rigors of both field and laboratory use. All can be manufactured to your exact specifications.

We are able to readily manufacture these types of products because of our extensive in-house Quality Control Laboratory that has capabilities for sophisticated product testing including: flex testing, cold chamber (to -100C), tensile elongation testing, and voltage breakdown. Our comprehensive in-house design, fabrication, and testing strengths allows New England Wire Technologies to manufacture cables to meet your critical performance and test standards and requirements.
