For car electronics, the availability of three distinct types of interconnects (flexible flat cables, flexible printed circuits, and micro flex coaxial cables) makes it easier to find the best option for a particular subsystem. We also provide heatspreaders for thermal management of engine and EV/HEV powertrain components, and EV quick-charger connector assemblies.

For medical ultrasound systems, we offer highly flexible transducer cables that contain hundreds of signal lines within a small diameter. The cables can be supplied in bulk rolls, cut lengths, or full assemblies according to customer specifications.

Silica-based HNLF (highly nonlinear fibers) are single-mode optical fibers that can be used for metrology, near-infrared spectroscopy, optical signal processing, temperature/strain sensing, and various other types of optical measurement.

For the thermal processing stage of semiconductor fabrication, we offer ceramic heaters that provide excellent thermal uniformity and rapid temperature control. These characteristics are obtained through a combination of proprietary technologies in heat design, advanced materials, and process engineering.

Air springs are used in the suspension system of trains to reduce vibrations transmitted from the wheels to the railway car. For decades, Sumitomo Electric has been a leading supplier of air springs for Japan’s Shinkansen bullet trains.

A wind profiler radar is composed of multiple antenna units, each equipped with a Luneburg lens. The number of antenna units in the system will vary according to the altitudes to be measured.
