      Schleuniger, Inc. has been providing high-precision wire and cable processing machines for 20 years.  The company is part of Schleuniger Holding AG, a worldwide group of companies headquartered in Switzerland that has been developing quality wire processing products for over 30 years.

      As a world leader in the production and service of wire processing equipment, you’ll be sure to find Schleuniger sales and service offices as well as distributors and service operations on every continent throughout the world.  Schleuniger, Inc. takes pride in the number of service offices it has in operation within North and Central America, and there are currently five offices from El Paso to Honduras to meet the demanding needs of this fast paced industrial area.  Schleuniger’s extra manpower ensures that knowledgeable service teams are available to help all customers in the field or at one of its many local offices.  Expanded services include a toll-free technical support line, a free wire sample program, and regionalized field service.  Free training is also provided with each Schleuniger bench-top machine purchase.

Providing innovation

      The first programmable coaxial cable stripper, fiber optic cable stripper and semi-rigid cable stripper were introduced to the market by Schleuniger.  The first computer-controlled cutting and stripping machine and the first out-of-round cable stripper are two more exciting industry introductions from the company. 

      Innovation remains a clear part of Schleuniger’s focus with the addition of SmartStrip, the first technology that automatically senses correct wire stripping diameter.  With this innovation, a user simply inserts a wire into the stripping machine, and SmartStrip does the work.  There is no need for programming.

      Another recent Schleuniger innovation, the ToolingShuttle System, combines a crimp applicator, terminal reel and paper winder in one mobile unit, allowing for complete changeover of one crimping station in less than 30 seconds.  This innovation not only saves time, but it also saves money and provides high return on investment.

Precision products

      “To Be Precise.” is the Schleuniger commitment to every customer.  Being precise means providing the highest level of technology and quality in all machinery to meet and exceed the customer’s wire processing needs.

      Delivering unparalleled wire processing solutions that cater to a variety of industries is a primary Schleuniger goal.  Offering first-class service with fast, competent customer support is another. Schleuniger holds both goals in the same high regard. 

      Schleuniger offers the widest range of innovative solutions for stripping, cutting, crimping and marking of all types of wire and cable, including single conductor wire, coaxial cable, glass and plastic optical cable, flat cable and multi-conductor cable to name a few.  Products range from semi-automatic benchtop machines to fully automatic wire processing lines.

Community and teamwork

      Schleuniger, Inc. believes in giving back to the community and full company participation in teamwork.   The company encourages community service and charitable involvement among its employees through the Schleuniger Community Service Connection.

      Schleuniger and its employees participate in various charitable programs and activities year round. One primary area of focus has been the St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Schleuniger donates funds to this non-profit each year and encourages employees to participate in activities that support it.

      Employees also raise money for and volunteer at the area food pantry and shelter, New Horizons, which is located in Manchester, N.H. where the Schleuniger, Inc. corporate offices reside. In addition, employees also collect coats, hats, mittens and scarves for this facility each year. 

      Junior Achievement scholarships, Operation Santa charities, matches to employee donations and recycling programs, are just a few more of the community service efforts that the company participates in to help the communities around its local offices.

      Schleuniger also fosters teamwork in every position of the company and was honored nationally in 2007 as one of the 25 Best Companies to Work for in America.  The company was also awarded the prestigious honor of #1 best small company to work for in its home state the same year.
