After invention of the insulated ferrule, the company understood the need to have equipment that could strip and crimp ferrules onto wires quickly and efficiently. It developed automatic stripping and crimping machines that now lead the industry in speed and reliability. Having firmly rooted itself in robotics technology, Z+F then developed an optical laser scanning system which could be used by engineers and architects to scan, photograph and measure in 3D, an area to millimeter accuracy in a matter of minutes. This new technology has many industrial applications, involving use in a variety of architectural and engineering disciplines. was founded to broaden the company's market into the United States. has upheld the manufacturing and customer service standards set by Z+F GmbH. distributes and supports high quality electronic control equipment, including ferrules; wire processing machines; and 3D Laser Scanners and Software.
