OPAL-RT is proud to announce they are consolidating and strengthening their hardware provisioning resources and production/integration pipelines through the hiring of resources from Montreal-based CanaCables, a manufacturer of high-end and specialized cables for aeronautics and aerospace, among other sectors.

OPAL-RT’s success has partially stemmed from their insistence on using Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) components in their complex, scalable and extremely flexible real-time simulation platforms and configurations. This in turn means that they require expertise and availability while assembling, configuring, and integrating the powerhouse components into a working whole. CanaCables has already been providing this service for OPAL-RT for 5 years, and thus this enhanced partnership represents the extension of a pre-existing long-time collaborative exchange.

CanaCables Inc. was created to meet the needs of highly specialized industrial sectors by providing electrical wiring, harnesses as well as electrical, electronic and electromechanical sub-assemblies. Their mission, led by President Stéphane Gingras, has always been to provide their customers with peace of mind when it comes to manufacturing electrical wiring, harnesses and sub-assemblies.

In order to work in closer collaboration with the company, OPAL-RT is hiring former CanaCables president Stéphane Gingras as Team Leader, Custom Solutions Assembly. Under the supervision of Denis Champagne, Chief Operating Officer, Stéphane will be responsible for the creation and supervision of this new facet of the inhouse Production team. His expertise in cable manufacturing will be an important asset in the design of OPAL-RT’s products. With over 30 years of combined experience in the aeronautical, military and commercial sectors, their expertise provides OPAL-RT with an experienced, reliable partner to handle OPAL-RT’s custom cabling needs, from prototyping to much larger scale projects.

OPAL-RT’s new division is to be known as Custom Solution Assembly. This new department will be located in Mirabel and will allow OPAL-RT to reduce lead times and supply costs, as well as to maintain quality and deliverable times of our custom cables. In a time where manufacturing is under constant threat by the frequent volatility of supply chain elements, the company is consolidating their position with their supplier to ensure stability in production.
