The Stäubli Group has completed the expansion of its Duncan plant in South Carolina / USA. The occasion has been celebrated on October 29th with a ribbon cutting ceremony in the presence of Stäubli Group CEO Rolf Strebel, Stäubli Corporation CEO Yves Stäubli and Multi-Contact CEO Franco Delvecchio.

In response to the expanding solar power market, the new building addition accomodates the manufacturing of electrical connectors for the Stäubli Group Company Multi-Contact.

In addition, Stäubli will emphasize the assembly of tool changers for the automation industry as well as electromagnetic quick mold clamping systems for the North American plastics industry, followed by connectors for laboratories, natural gas, nuclear and military applications.

Renewable energies are becoming increasingly important and demand for Photovoltaic modules is expected to triple by 2010. With its solar product line of connectors, cables, and junction boxes, Multi-Contact delivers flexible solutions for time-saving, dependable cabling of solar panels.

The connectors are fully touch-protected and designed for high voltage and high current-carrying capacity, meeting the IP 67 protection requirement in the photovoltaic industry.
