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.
