Aims to build a customer base and expand sales in overseas markets, especially in the USA

OKI Electric Cable (President: Hideo Yamaguchi; Head office: Isesaki City, Gunma Prefecture), the OKI Group electric cable company, will exhibit at AUTOMATE 2025, an event to be held in Detroit, Michigan, USA, from May 12 to 15, 2025, with the aim of acquiring new customers and expanding sales. The company will showcase its motion-tolerant and flexible factory automation (FA) cables and flexible printed circuits (FPCs), which have won high praise in the FA/robotics, medical, and aerospace industries.

Offering a lineup of products with high tolerance to repeated bending and twisting, OKI Electric Cable has established a strong track record across a range of industrial sectors thanks to its technological expertise in maximizing the performance of robots and other mobility-oriented equipment. In recent years, with advances in physical AI (artificial intelligence based on physical movement), the use of robotics has rapidly expanded across a wide range of fields, including manufacturing, logistics, nursing care, and healthcare. OKI Electric Cable is seeking to leverage this trade show to promote its highly durable and reliable products and build relationships with customers in the North American market.

AUTOMATE 2025 is among the largest trade shows in North America dedicated to automation technology and robotics, and is a key international event showcasing the latest technologies and solutions for a wide range of industries, including manufacturing, logistics, and healthcare. The event brings together under one roof robot manufacturers and other companies such as AI and vision-system providers, component suppliers, and software developers. It serves as an important platform for companies seeking to adopt next-generation technologies and to address a broad range of challenges.

In its Medium-Term Business Plan 2025, OKI positions the FA market as a key focus in its EMS business. OKI will continue to develop technologies that leverage the high quality and durability established for core components, including cables, FPCs, and power supplies, while actively working to expand business in global markets.
