Leoni expands Pune facility; invests €10 million more

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Leoni an European provider of cables and cable systems to the automotive sector and other industries, has enhanced its location at Chakan, Pune. Leoni has invested more than €10 million into the expansion of its location. The company inaugurated an electron beam accelerator, which allows to provide high performance cables to customers from various industries such as railway and solar.

Now, the combined production area has increased to more than 20,000 sq mt and a capacity to manufacture 80,000 KM per year of electron beam cross linked cables, which ensure a higher degree of safety, superior performance and greater efficiency. In the e-beam process, Leoni treats its cables with extremely accelerated electrons, thus crosslinking their chemical structure. As a consequence, the cables obtain the properties of comparatively more expensive, usually more difficult to process high performance products.
