More about Cicoil

Whenever you fly in a commercial jet, it's very likely that Cicoil cables are flying along with you. Cicoil cables are critical to the fuel control system on most commercial and military aircraft, and the cables have performed flawlessly for hundreds of thousands of flight hours. Throughout Cicoil's fifty year history, the Company's high performance cables have performed in thousands of demanding, mission-critical applications. From the Space Shuttle, to the F-15 fighter jet, to high performance semiconductor equipment, engineers have relied on Cicoil for performance, quality and durability. In addition to providing high quality and reliability, Cicoil's unique silicone-encased flat cables provide the ultimate in flexibility and compact packaging.

Cicoil was founded in 1956, and the company quickly became the leader in making flat cables from a new material: silicone rubber. Serving the growing military and computer electronics markets, Cicoil developed an expertise in precision molding wire conductors into flexible silicone rubber jackets. The wire conductors were placed in a horizontal mold, and then liquid silicone rubber was poured into the mold. Through successive applications of silicone rubber, and the use of chemical curing agents, the silicone rubber would cure, completely encasing the wire conductors in a clear, durable silicone rubber jacket. The resulting cables were extremely compact and flexible, which made them ideal for high performance. In addition to molding cables, Cicoil developed a strong expertise in precision soldering of fine gauge wires, as the company would routinely solder and mold 40AWG wires into connectors.

There were, however, some drawbacks to Cicoil's early cable production method. It was very labor intensive, the thickness of the silicone insulation could not be precisely controlled, and it limited the length of cables that could be produced. Cicoil overcame these obstacles in 1998, with the implementation of the next generation 'Cable Extrusion Equipment.' This revolutionary equipment, which was the result of seven years of intensive R&D, overcame all the drawbacks of the original cable molding method. Cables could now be commercially extruded in continuous lengths, with extremely high levels of accuracy. In addition, Cicoil's equipment is extremely flexible, allowing for a wide variety of wire types, sizes, and cable profiles to be quickly and easily produced, with a minimum of tooling charges.

Cicoil's breakthrough in cable production allowed the benefits of the company's highly flexible silicone cables to be accessible to a wider range of commercial applications. The company began providing cable assemblies to manufacturers of precision semiconductor equipment, where the flexibility and the compact packaging of Cicoil's cables had significant advantages. Cicoil cables also began to be used in medical equipment, and in automated robotic process equipment, specifically where cables needed to survive tens of millions of flexing, repetitive cycles. Cicoil's cables excelled in these environments, as the durability and flexibility of the silicone-encased conductors were ideal for the most demanding automation applications.

Cicoil has extensive engineering experience in specifying and designing cable assemblies. The company's engineers have custom designed thousands of custom cable assemblies, for a wide variety of environments and applications. Some of the applications for Cicoil Cables are:
* The Space Shuttle, and the Apollo, Gemini and Mercury space programs.
* Semiconductor equipment, including wafer processing and inspection tools from all leading manufacturers.
* Missile programs, including the Minuteman, Poseidon, Sidewinder, EKV and the RAM missile systems. Cicoil cables are mainly used for the extremely precise, demanding control of the missile's gimbal assemblies.
* Medical equipment, including mammography machines, automated X-ray lithography equipment, and miniature hearing aids.
* Robotic automation equipment with multiple axes of motion, where Cicoil cables have been proven to last tens of millions of repetitive, flexing cycles.

Cicoil has invested in the latest engineering hardware and software, including 3D modeling, enabling the company's engineers to quickly and accurately design and produce the ideal cable for any application. And with Cicoil's unique cable production capabilities, it is very simple and fast to tool up and produce a custom cable design, ensuring that Cicoil's customers get the ideal cable for their application needs.

Cicoil's quality performance is unparalleled, as the company's products have performed flawlessly for over fifty years, in thousands of demanding, mission-critical applications. The company's quality system is ISO 9001 certified, including the extremely strict AS 9100 Aerospace standard. Every cable is rigorously tested before leaving the factory, including 100% testing for electrical performance. When you specify a Cicoil cable, you can be assured that you will be getting the ultimate in performance and reliability.
