Cable Assembly Manufacturing

At Caton, cable assembly manufacturing is our stock-in-trade. Whether designing and manufacturing a brand new interconnect and cable assembly, modifying Caton’s standard connectors, or integrating third-party components, Caton can manufacture custom cable assemblies in high or low volumes efficiently.

Caton’s primary manufacturing facility in Kingston, Massachusetts can be modified for manufacturing at any scale. To keep manufacturing costs down our products are designed with efficiency in mind.  While automation and lean processes are employed to keep manufacturing costs low, a great deal of our value comes from applying our decades of experience to specifying materials and processes that achieve high quality results at the lowest cost.
