GTK UK Ltd’s continuous innovations deliver enhanced support for customers' cable assembly projects, demonstrating its commitment to providing comprehensive, long-term solutions.

Tom Robinson, GTK's Business Manager for Cables & I/O, outlines several ways that the company achieves this.

Custom cable laid out on a loom board.

“As a manufacturing partner that prides itself on adding value, early collaboration in the design stage of new projects is key, as it allows us to assist with Bill of Materials (BOM) evaluation and make recommendations to improve price performance. This proactive approach ensures that design and manufacturing processes are optimised, delivering cost-effective and high-quality solutions.”

"We are dedicated to fostering long-term partnerships with our customers by offering unparalleled support for their cable assembly projects."

Understanding a customer’s forecast is also crucial, as Tom explains: “When customers plan their usage and place large orders in advance, we can optimise our component procurement and streamline production planning for greater efficiency. This means that we can obtain substantial cost savings and simplify the supply chain process, resulting in lower overall costs for customers.

“We can even manage the entire logistics operation for them, supporting their schedules with planned product deliveries, so that customers only receive their cables assemblies when they need them.”

GTK’s adjustable supply models leverage its global manufacturing footprint and advanced automation capabilities, helping it to support its customers’ lead time requirements. The company's expertise spans various industry sectors, enabling it to cater to diverse customer needs. From automotive and medical to telecommunications and automated manufacturing, GTK has the experience and knowledge to support a wide range of applications, ensuring effective and innovative solutions for any project.

“At GTK UK, we are dedicated to fostering long-term partnerships with our customers by offering unparalleled support for their cable assembly projects,” concluded Tom. “Our continuous enhancements in logistics and supply chain management reflect our commitment to delivering value and excellence.”
