UEALINK × TE Connectivity Energy Storage Industrial Wiring Harness Collaboration Case

I. Project Background

TE Connectivity is a global leader in connector manufacturing, with business spanning energy storage, data centers, power batteries, industrial automation, and communication equipment. Its supporting wire harnesses face stringent technical requirements, including extremely small bending radii, high-temperature resistance and flame retardancy, compatibility with automated processing, compliance with export regulations in multiple countries worldwide, and miniaturized wiring.

Dongguan UEALINK Electronics was founded in 2016, with its factory located in the Eastern Industrial Park of Qiaotou, Dongguan. Covering an area of 55,000㎡, the company boasts a professional production team of 500 employees and holds Asia’s leading full suite of UL cable certifications. It specializes in custom industrial wire harnesses and cable assemblies, providing TE with fully specified silicone rubber UL‑certified specialty cables plus one‑stop wire harness assembly and processing services for all categories of connectors. This ensures stable support for TE’s mass production and delivery of energy storage, automation, and data center equipment both domestically and internationally.

II. Key Collaboration Data and Achievements

1. Order and Delivery Data

The two parties have established a long-term global framework partnership, covering TE’s energy storage cabinets, power battery PACKs, industrial automation equipment, and data center communication devices across multiple product lines. All standard UL‑certified silicone cables—3132/3133/3640/3577/4389/2137—are produced in batches according to demand, perfectly matching TE’s standard MOQ requirements without any additional inventory‑holding premium costs.

Adopting a direct supply model from the Dongguan factory, the company supports EXW and FOB delivery terms, ensuring on‑time delivery for all orders with zero delays. An exclusive project‑specific order‑tracking response channel guarantees that feedback—from drawing confirmation and cable sampling to mass‑production scheduling—takes no more than 48 hours, aligning seamlessly with TE’s flexible global multi‑factory production rhythm and maintaining a steady supply to eliminate the risk of production line downtime due to material shortages.

Business coverage includes North America (18.00%), South America (16.00%), and Eastern Europe (8.00%), while also providing customs clearance documentation for TE’s overseas factories, ensuring smooth and timely export procedures.

2. Quality and Compliance Performance

The supplied cables encompass a complete range of UL‑certified silicone specialty cables: single‑core silicone cables 3132/3133/3640/3577, multi‑core cable 4389, double‑layer insulated silicone cable 2137, as well as non‑standard silicone cables sheathed in fiberglass or nylon yarn, all accompanied by one‑stop wire harness assembly and processing services.

A comprehensive set of UL, VW‑1 flame‑retardant, and low‑smoke halogen‑free HF compliance reports is provided alongside, backed by over a thousand international certifications. The factory holds ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certificates, and every cable series bears RoHS environmental markings. All incoming materials pass TE’s factory inspection at a 100% rate, with zero batch quality issues.

The cables withstand a wide temperature range of -40℃ to 150℃, meet the VW‑1 high‑flame‑retardant standard, and are resistant to oil, aging, and tearing. Supporting CSA, VDE, TUV, and other international reports, they satisfy export reviews in the EU, North America, and Eastern Europe, achieving one‑time qualification approval for overseas projects without additional certification or tariff costs.

3. Quantifiable Value of Supply Chain Collaboration

① Improved production and assembly efficiency: With a cable bending radius of only 4–5 times the outer diameter, these cables perfectly match TE’s automated wire harness bending equipment, reducing wire harness bending processing time by 32% and increasing daily production capacity per line by 28%.

② Dramatically reduced failure rates in end equipment: High‑temperature‑resistant, flame‑retardant cables address the common issue of overheating and short circuits in ordinary cables, cutting failures in energy storage cabinets and battery packs by 75% and lowering TE’s overall after‑sales repair rate by 62%.

③ Significant reduction in overseas compliance costs: Leveraging UEALINK’s own portfolio of over a thousand international certifications, TE has shortened the overseas certification cycle for new products by 60%, achieving a 100% first‑time qualification rate for global overseas projects.

④ Optimization of internal device structure: For cables of equivalent current‑carrying capacity, the outer diameter is smaller, reducing the overall cable volume by 22% and decreasing the space occupied by internal wiring in each energy storage device by 20%, thereby supporting TE’s efforts toward compact device designs.

⑤ Streamlined supply chain costs and risks: High‑quality domestic cables replace TE’s original imported materials, cutting overall wire harness procurement costs by 18% and reducing the risk of production line shutdowns caused by interruptions in overseas raw material supplies by 90%.

III. Significance of the Project Collaboration

In this collaboration, UEALINK precisely meets TE Connectivity’s stringent standards for flexible wire harness processing, high‑temperature resistance and flame retardancy, global export compliance, automated production line adaptation, cost control, and long‑term stable supply. Backed by a 55,000㎡ proprietary factory, a full suite of UL international certifications, and a professional production and quality‑inspection team of 500 members, UEALINK achieves flawless execution across the entire process—from drawing sampling and cable mass production to wire harness processing, comprehensive compliance reporting, incoming material inspection, and overseas customs clearance support.

Building on the success of this energy storage, industrial automation, and data center wire harness project, the two parties have forged a long‑term strategic partnership across multiple product lines, while laying a standardized, quantifiable service foundation for UEALINK to connect with over 1,000 renowned global clients, including Amazon, Mindray Medical, BYD, Weiteng Electric, United Aircraft, and others.
