Customized Solutions for special Challenges
As the specialist for cable glands and cable entry systems, we have a suitable component for almost every application in our standard program. In addition, we also offer customer-specific configurations and special assemblies. And if that's not enough, we go one step further and develop a product that meets your individual requirements. For particularly tricky challenges, we have installed a cross-divisional team at Jacob that implements customized solutions beyond the standard.
Recent projects

Development
Design
Our team will develop one or more proposed solutions according to your requirements.
Simulation
At an early stage we check the design for potentially weak points and optimize it.
Prototyping
Within shortest time we can provide a first prototype.
Consultation
Benjamin Szuster, head of the technical team at Jacob:
"I see our greatest competence in providing direct technical advice to customers, before, during and after the realisation of a project. It is important to us that the customer has a true benefit in the end. In one specific project, we were able to achieve significant assembly time savings with the customer by replacing three standard cable glands with a customer-specific junction box. The exciting thing about my job is finding the optimal solution, while taking all aspects into account."

realization
Jacob GmbH has been producing electrotechnical components for over a century. At the company headquarters in Kernen, you will find all disciplines united under one roof: development, design, mold/tool making, plastics and turning technology and a well-equipped laboratory. This enables us to carry out projects from the initial consultation all the way to the complete process development. For more information please check out our flyer Laboratory and Technology at Jacob.
Turning Technology
Every year, we process around 2,000 t of brass, lead-free brass and stainless steel on our automatic multi-spindle and CNC turning machines.
Plastics technology
Over 600 t of granulate flow through our injection molding machines every year. Our mold making keeps the tool technology in tip-top shape.
Laboratory
Climatic cabinets for extreme temperatures, protection grade tests up to IP69; we ensure that our customers' requirements are met.
