How Komax Zeta Improves Wire Processing Efficiency

Modern wire harness production requires speed, accuracy, and flexibility. As product designs become more complex, manual processing can slow output and introduce inconsistency. The Komax Zeta is designed to automate key stages of wire preparation, from cutting and crimping to labeling and sorting. It brings greater efficiency to cable assembly operations and handles high-mix, high-volume production without sacrificing quality.

What Is the Komax Zeta Machine?

The Komax Zeta is an automated wire processing system that handles multiple wire types, sizes, and configurations without tooling changeover. It performs cutting, stripping, crimping, labeling, and routing in one continuous workflow. Operators feed production data and wire lists into the machine, eliminating much of the manual setup. The modular design allows configuration of terminal modules, marking stations, or bundling functions to match a manufacturer’s requirements.

Manual Wire Processing Challenges

How Komax Zeta Improves Wire Processing

The Komax Zeta simplifies production by combining multiple wire handling steps into one controlled process. It reduces setup between jobs, limits handling errors, and keeps production moving without interruptions. Operators spend less time staging materials or adjusting equipment, which frees up resources and shortens lead times.

Benefits of Komax Zeta for OEM Manufacturers

The Komax Zeta completes multiple wire processing steps in one uninterrupted sequence. This reduces idle time between operations and eliminates the need for manual transitions from one task to the next. With programmable wire lists and automatic job setup, the system moves quickly from batch to batch without delays.

Higher throughput allows OEMs to meet production targets without increasing headcount or extending shifts.

Improved Quality and Consistency

Manual wire processing can lead to variation in cut lengths, strip depth, or crimp quality. The Komax Zeta reduces this variability by using programmable settings that apply consistent parameters across each wire. When paired with quality monitoring modules, the system can detect deviations in crimp force and other key metrics during production.



Fewer handling steps and controlled automation contribute to more repeatable results across batches.

How Kato Cable Delivers Precision with Komax Zeta

At Kato Cable, we use the Komax Zeta to meet tight production timelines without sacrificing consistency. Our team programs each job based on the exact wire specifications required, including cut length, strip dimensions, and terminal configurations. The machine’s automation allows us to reduce handling, speed up production, and maintain accuracy across every harness.

We configure the system with monitoring tools that help us catch irregularities early, so each assembly meets the quality standards our OEM partners expect.
