The STM 1, which still delivers state-of-the-art performance even by todays standards in nearly 200 laboratories worldwide, firmly established Omicrons present position as the world market leader in UHV scanning probe microscopy. Today, our products like, for example, the new NanoESCA or the UHV Gemini Column are right at the forefront of research. We are used to redefining the limits of the technically feasible again and again. More than 500 articles demonstrate this to the full. Many of them were published in leading journals such as Nature, Science, Physical Review Letters or Chemical Review Letters.

With over a hundred employees working here at our present headquarters in Kaltenkirchen, we develop and produce Cable Accessory Systems as well as Maritime Lighting & Electrical Equipment for an international clientele. Our origins lie in shipbuilding. Ships throughout the world have been using WISKA products for 87 years now. Meaning that the standards by which we develop our products have been set by the rugged conditions of life at sea. Our products have to be capable of withstanding mechanical stress and must reliably protect electrical installations from damp and dirt. So that power can flow without hindrance. Safety and user-friendliness take top priority in electrical installation. That is why WISKA products meet the most stringent stability and seal requirements. Proving we have some knowledge of the electrical engineering, we also supply innovative products whose practical details make the work of installation not only safer, but faster. So our customers can save on time, that must valuable of their assets.

More than 30 trading partners and agencies in all major economic regions worldwide provide a reliable network of partners for our customers. As we are a family-run enterprise, we think in long-term strategies and welcome fairness. That’s why FLEXA is a reliable partner and relations of many years’ standing both with our highly appreciated customers and our employees are our standard. This is what FLEXA stands for in terms of protective tubing technology. And this shows with our variety of products, with our innovative power, with our quality, and with our reliability. You will get all you require from one partner. Protective tubings made of plastics or metal featuring the appropriate connection type for all customary threads for any application. Our products comply with the VDE, DIN, UL, and CSA norms, which are acknowledged worldwide, and will be delivered according to our customers’ specifications – tailored length, also with pre-fixed connectors, or rolled upon special reels. In plain words : ready for the next production process. Applicable for temperatures between – 60°C up to + 230°C, classified up to IP 69K, resistant to solvents, liquid-tight, or with a silicone cover - no matter which protective system you require, FLEXA will certainly have a solution for your request. You will find our products in the mechanical engineering sector, in wind power stations, or in the automotive. They keep electromagnetic impacts away from data lines, they protect laser light guides against physical impacts, or they guarantee easy sterilizability for tools and instruments in the medical sector. So if it is about protective tubing systems, we will take well care of you – in a competent, comprehensive, and innovative way. A wide range of products is not enough. Some applications require special modifications on the products. Therefore, the FLEXA engineers support our customers’ ideas and implement application-oriented product designs with latest CAD systems. We want to be innovative, so we invest a great part of our turnover into the acquisition and maintenance of our plants and also into training for our highly qualified personnel. Due to our workshop and an own laboratory for tests we can act most flexibly. Any idea by our engineers and any solution provided by our CAD systems in the R&D Department is turned into a prototype and subjected to martial tests. FLEXA is also in the position quickly and flexibly to design special tools for the production of injection-moulded devices and to modify such tools. For our customers, this means : Discover the difference – especially when flexibility and quality are demanded. An important pre-condition for the top quality of our products to be provided on a permanent high level is our machinery and plant pool. The fully automatic plastic moulding machines and extruders, CNC lathes, or wire winders and braiding machines are continuously modified and reflect state-of-the-art technology. We do not only focus on metal and plastic processing but have also gathered comprehensive experience concerning silicone processing. Many milestones in the protective tubing technology such as the first SPR protective tubing made of metal or the FLEXAquick thread system, which until today has set the benchmark for quick mounting and dismantling processes, give evidence of our pioneering spirit. So it is not a coincidence that the high-tech laser sector and the medical sector cooperate with us for new developments.

Most of today’s gears and splines are precision items, for whose production both know-how and special tools with very tight tolerances are required. In order to inspect the manufactured workpieces, companies need even more accurate measuring and inspection equipment. FRENCO has committed itself to this challenge. Our FRENCO concept is characterised by its consequent quality and customer orientation. Customer preferences and requirements can always be integrated as we only start production of the measurement solution on receipt of the order. We place a lot of emphasis on service, flexibility and quality
