Caton is a custom high-voltage cable assembly manufacturer designing and producing high-voltage connectors and cable assemblies from 1 kV to 250 kV for aerospace, defense, scientific, and industrial systems.
We serve engineering teams that build systems where electrical failure is not an option. Performance must be engineered. Manufacturing must remain controlled, traceable, and repeatable over the life of the program.
Our customers operate in environments where documentation, traceability, and technical accountability are contractual.
Our Ideal Customer
Our ideal customer is an OEM or engineering organization that:
- Owns the system design and performance requirements
- Needs a high-voltage partner who understands electrical behavior, not just assembly
- Values engineering collaboration early in development
- Requires AS9100-level discipline and aerospace-grade traceability
- Expects predictable execution after design release
We work directly with OEM engineering teams.
Even when production flows through Tier 1 or Tier 2 suppliers, Caton remains the technical authority for the high-voltage assembly. That relationship is intentional. It is how programs stay stable.
What Makes a Program a Good Fit
You are a strong fit for Caton if your program requires:
- Voltage performance from 1 kV to 250 kV
- Corona control, insulation integrity, and electrical reliability
- Design-for-manufacturability input during development
- Full traceability (lot or serial, as required)
- First Article Inspection and controlled configuration management
- Long-term product consistency, not short-term sourcing
We specialize in high-mix, low-volume manufacturing. Some programs run at higher volumes (1,000–2,000 assemblies per year), but they are built with the same engineering rigor and process control as our lowest volume aerospace work.
What You Can Expect Working With Caton
You get an engineering partner, not a build-to-print vendor.
You can expect:
- Direct collaboration with engineers who understand high-voltage behavior
- Design support, manufacturability guidance, and failure analysis capability
- AS9100 and ISO 9001 controlled processes
- ITAR-compliant operations
- FAI packages, serial or lot traceability, and complete build records
- Stable processes that support sole-source and preferred-vendor programs
- Consistent execution from prototype through production
We are trusted as a sole-source supplier on multiple OEM platforms because our work remains stable after release. That is the real measure of reliability.
