Can Bus Cable in EV Production Lines and Heavy Machinery
In automotive production lines and heavy machinery, CAN Bus cables are used for communication between robotic welders, paint shops, assembly conveyors, and test stations. This segment accounts for approximately 10% of CAN bus cable consumption .
Key Drivers:
Expansion of electric vehicle production facilities
Automation of vehicle assembly
Need for reliable control in harsh environments with oils, solvents, and temperature extremes
Cable Requirements:
Oil-resistant and high-temperature cables for automotive assembly
Pre-terminated assemblies to reduce downtime during line changeovers
High-flex cables for robotic applications
Key Participants: Belden Inc, Lapp Group, HELUKABEL, SAB Bröckskes GmbH & Co. KG, Cavel Cable .
The segment benefits from the global shift toward EV manufacturing, which requires new production lines and retrofitting of existing facilities .
