Schurter, Inc. Company Profile

Industrialization of satellites
The use of space by satellites has so far focused on scientific, communicative and military aspects. This will change massively in the future. Whole swarms of small satellites are to orbit the globe and supply mankind with Internet from orbit.

Customized Wire Harnessing
Wire harnessing is the production of ready-to-connect cables, cable bundles and com- plete wire harnesses with connectors, contacts or wire end sleeves.

The Voltage rises
The idea of a higher vehicle electrical system voltage in automobiles is not new. As early as the 1990s, a 42V consortium was set up for fear that the 12 V vehicle electrical system would fall to its knees, due to of the ever-increasing number of electrical consumers. However, due to a lack of standards, this approach was not successful. But now everything is to change.
