Lightweight Space Technology Wire, Cable Assemblies, and Custom Connectors

Our research with carbon fiber and carbon nanotubes (CNT) led to the development of new products replacing many traditional metallic conductors. This change resulted in drastic weight savings—a key to success in this market!

Our research and development division, boasts a rare piece of equipment called the RESS reactor (Rapid Expansion of Supercritical Solutions). The RESS reactor enables us to test conductive CNTs on virtually any surface. (The RESS reactor utilizes supercritical carbon dioxide as the solvent to allow for the dispersion of carbon nanotube powder into an appropriate polymer medium for spray applications.)

Minnesota Wire leads the market in design and manufacturing versatility.

Our design and engineering department develop custom solutions to fit your specific space technology or aircraft wire and cable project. From the conceptual stages through full production runs, we work with you every step of the way.
