Meridian Cable is a volume manufacturer that produces cable assemblies for OEMs in a multitude of industries. Whether you need standard, custom or combination products, our design team is ready to assist you every step of the way.

Complete cable design

We produce cable and cable assemblies for just about every industry and application imaginable. Whether you have an existing, preliminary design that could benefit from our industry knowledge or need a unique design, our engineers can assist you.

Custom cable extrusion

We extrude cable to the most exacting specifications and requirements, meeting the highest-quality standards. Starting with the individual copper strand, we build cable from the beginning, manufacturing in quality at every step. Our focus is on conductors from 6 to 36 gauge, and we can make cables with diameters as large as 0.78.” The materials we use range from basic polymers to engineered plastics ¬ from PVC to PTFE.  Our certified, in-house UL testing lab regularly tests all our cables.

Insert and over molding

We use insert molding and over molding on a wide variety of our products. Insert molding improves a product’s functionality, durability and appearance by covering areas of the cable assembly with plastics such as PVC, PP, TPEE and TPR.  Using solid modeling software such as SolidWorks, Unigraphics and ProE we design custom over moldings for connectors, strain reliefs, grommets, Y junctions and many other applications.

Computerized testing

We use advanced equipment and techniques to inspect and test every product to ensure it meets the most exacting performance requirements, so that our customers receive a quality product each and every time. Our factory has automated Cirrus testers and can build functional testers for more advanced applications.

Coil cords

We create custom coil cords from raw cable that we extrude. Our production process includes coil cord fabrication, attaching components, over molding and full lifecycle testing to ensure that the coil cords perform to your specifications. We can build coil cords from 2 inches to more than 4 feet long. Combined with our in-house extruding expertise, we can deliver a coil cord that is right for you.

Sonic welding

Sonic welding is a process used to join two plastic parts together without glue or fasteners. We use this technology to efficiently and cost-effectively optimize the quality of our products. Using solid modeling software such as SolidWorks, Unigraphics and ProE our engineers can design housings to be sonically welded or assist your team in seeing a design to completion.

Soldering to .015″ pitch

We have the technology and skilled work force needed to meet the most precise soldering specifications ¬ to within .015″. We solder high-density connectors for medical, aerospace and military applications as well as for other fields.

Electro-mechanical testing

Meridian Cable tests everything. A partial list of equipment includes Cirrus cable tester, a full UL wire testing lab, force gages for terminal pull strength, color charts to show, coil cord life cycle testers, environmental chambers and many other standard and custom items for cable, cable assemblies, coil cords, circuits boards, plastic housings, metal stampings and connectors. If we build it, we test it.
