"We're excited to return to Wire Expo and continue building relationships in the industry," said Chuck Dillard, Vice President of EDC. "This event is a great opportunity to hear what types of challenges our peers are experiencing and discuss solutions, while also learning where the industry is headed."
This year, EDC will feature an expanded booth presence, including a large-format display highlighting project experience, system upgrades, and control strategies across drawing, annealing, jacketing, extrusion, and continuous vulcanization (CV) processes.
With decades of experience in wire and cable manufacturing, EDC specializes in troubleshooting, upgrading, and retrofitting existing systems to improve performance without requiring full line replacement. The company's work ranges from targeted fixes—such as resolving feedback and tension control issues—to complete control system retrofits that improve consistency, reduce downtime, and extend equipment life. One recent project featured the modernization of a CV line for a major oilfield services company.
Organized by the Wire Association International (WAI), Wire Expo is a premier biennial event bringing together professionals across the wire and cable manufacturing industry. The event features technical presentations, a comprehensive exhibit hall, live production solution demonstrations, and networking opportunities for industry leaders.
