Protection systems designed for steer-by-wire integration

The new requirements of steer-by-wire architecture


As mechanical steering linkages are replaced by electrical signal transmission, the reliability of the wiring architecture becomes a safety-relevant design factor. Cable protection is no longer only a mechanical safeguard. It becomes part of overall system performance.

FRÄNKISCHE Industrial Pipes develops cable protection systems specifically adapted to the requirements of steer-by-wire architectures. We do not focus on individual components.
We design integrated routing and protection concepts that support performance, durability and safe signal transmission.

 

  • continuous dynamic movement in steering zones

  • high vibration exposure

  • tight installation space and complex routing paths

  • protection of safety-critical signal transmission

  • long-term reliability across the entire vehicle lifetime

  • resistance against temperature, media and environmental stress

Product portfolio for steer-by-wire cable protection

Reliable electrical steering requires a coordinated protection concept across the entire routing path.

FRÄNKISCHE Industrial Pipes provides a complete range of components designed to work together as an integrated system.

New challenges for electric steering architectures

 


      • optimized geometry for dynamic routing

      • weight-efficient protection concepts

      • packaging-optimized solutions

      • durable abrasion and vibration resistance

      • integration into existing E/E architectures

Engineering focus:

 

All components are engineered to function as part of a coordinated protection and routing system.

From component supplier to steering architecture partner


Steer-by-wire systems demand more than individual protection elements. They require a fully engineered routing concept that performs reliably under dynamic steering conditions.

FRÄNKISCHE Industrial Pipes supports OEMs and system integrators from concept phase to series production.

ENGINEERING SUPPORT

where it matters most.

 

  • early-phase routing and packaging analysis
  • identification of critical wear and movement zones
  • selection of materials and geometries based
  • on application load cases
  • integration into existing E/E architectures
  • support during validation and testing

DESIGNed

for series performance.

 

  • stable protection under vibration and continuous movement
  • long-term durability across vehicle lifetime
  • repeatable and process-safe installation
  • variant-capable solutions for platform strategies
  • global industrialization capability

Our goal is not only to protect cables.

 

Our goal is to ensure that steering signals remain reliable under all operating conditions.
