Cable tie tensioning tools from HellermannTyton
October 2017
Enclosures, Cabling & Connectors
Assembly and installation tasks are becoming ever more complicated, which is why specialised cable tie tools are becoming increasingly important. Whether manual or automatic cable tie tensioning tools are required, these have to fulfil specific tasks, often under quite unique conditions. For instance, one cable tie tensioner might be used in areas which are difficult to reach, while another may need to operate without electricity. Not only must the tensioning tool offer reliability and flexibility, but also it must not place unnecessary strain on the user.
One such tool that has redefined the cable tensioning tool is the EVO 9, which combines durability, precision and control with unparalleled comfort. Manufactured from high-performance materials and components, the EVO9 features an innovative, ergonomic design to minimise stresses on the hands and wrists and eliminate the ‘kickback’ that occur with traditional tools.
All cable tie tools from HellermannTyton are subjected to strict tests to ensure they comply with the highest quality demands. Furthermore, the company can provide support during the installation and use-testing of its cable tie tools on site.
Should there not be a suitable cable tie tool to fulfil specific industry requirements, then together with the user, adjustments or possibly even the development of a new tool can be undertaken through a joint agreement.
To be able to provide this service, the development sites of HellermannTyton have facilities for developing, modifying and testing cable tie tensioning tools, ranging from the smallest cable tie tool to automatic bundling systems. Applications include wire harnessing in numerous market sectors, such as: automotive, telecommunications, military computers and peripherals, industrial equipment and instrumentation.
