en.Wedoany.com Reported - German industrial connection technology supplier Weidmüller officially launched a fully automatic cable marking combination system in mid-June 2026, consisting of the THM MultiMark Plus R printer and the MultiMark R-Fix labeling machine. This system automatically prints and wraps cable markings, taking about three seconds per marking, saving approximately 60% of the time compared to manual operations. It is suitable for marking workflows in distribution cabinet assembly and machine processing workshops.
Founded in 1948 and headquartered in Detmold, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, Weidmüller is a globally leading provider of industrial electrical connection, automation, and marking system solutions. The company has branches in over 80 countries worldwide, with more than 50 sales companies and multiple production bases. In 2025, it employed approximately 5,700 people globally and achieved annual sales exceeding 1.1 billion euros.
The combination system adopts a fully automatic printing and wrapping process, using laminated labels to ensure long-term durability and resistance to environmental erosion. The supported label size range covers wires with outer diameters from 2 mm to 14 mm. Through an advanced wrapping process, the labels are precisely applied to the cable surface, ensuring firm adhesion. The THM MultiMark Plus R printer supports various label materials with high printing resolution, clearly presenting QR codes, barcodes, and text information. The MultiMark R-Fix labeling machine uses precision mechanical structures to automatically pick up and wrap labels, avoiding positioning deviations and poor adhesion caused by manual operations. According to Weidmüller, this system is particularly suitable for batch cable processing scenarios, such as industrial control cabinet assembly, automation equipment manufacturing, and automotive wiring harness production. It significantly reduces repetitive manual operations, lowers marking error rates, and improves overall production efficiency. In traditional manual marking processes, operators need to sequentially complete label printing, peeling, and alignment, taking about 7 to 8 seconds per marking, with long-term repetitive work leading to fatigue and errors. The new system integrates printing and labeling into a continuous automated process, requiring operators only to place the cable in the designated position for fully automatic marking.
The combination system has completed validation tests at Weidmüller's German headquarters and multiple European customer sites, and will be officially launched in major global markets starting from the third quarter of 2026. Its release marks a further evolution of industrial cable marking from semi-automation to full automation, providing a new standardized solution for electrical cabinet manufacturing and industrial automation fields.
