One of the country’s most successful branded cabling, connector, connectivity and automation system facilitators, LAPP Australia, will introduce major new drag chain cabling and custom engineering services at AUSPACK in Melbourne from May 17-20.
The fully fledged Australian branch of the German global leader in cabling and connectivity solutions, LAPP Group, has far more than more than doubled its inventory of locally stocked product lines, from 1,500 to more than 4,000, since setting up in this country just four years ago.
“We have also expanded our staff nearly fourfold (from six to 22 specialists and growing) to provide industry-best levels of supply service and engineering expertise. Our service levels – which have set out from day one to be the best available – are a major advantage to companies seeking not only the best quality cabling solutions, but also similarly excellent engineering services vital to integrated electrical, process and automation engineering solutions. These new and expanded services custom engineering cabling services to be shown at AUSPACK,” says LAPP Australia Managing Director, Mr Simon Pullinger.

“LAPP Australia has also helped major industries weather the COVID pandemic by securing their supply chains to world-best product through our online shop listings growing from 5,000 product listings to over 25,000 products. These cables, connectors, and services are vital to industries and automation/Industry 4.0 applications including food and beverage, solar and energy, resources and materials handling, primary production and process engineering, acoustics, electrical contracting, water and wastewater, recycling, machine building and automation,” says Mr Pullinger.
Highlights of AUSPACK stand G105 will include the widest range of industrial and electrical cables on the Australian market, including:
- ÖLFLEX® power and control cables
- SKINTOP® cable glands
- ETHERLINE® data communications systems for ETHERNET connections
- UNITRONIC® data cables
- EPIC® Connectors
- SILVYN® robust cable protection and supply systems
- HITRONIC® super-fastfibre-optic cables

LAPP will also be displaying its Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) cables, as well as cables specifically designed for high heat or low temperature and refrigerated environments.
Complementing this broad range will be Australia’s widest range of drag chain cables. LAPP OLFLEX® flexible dragchain cables (also known as energy chain cables) are designed to be used in applications that are constantly moving. They ensure the fail-safe supply of energy, data and impulses and are engineered to guide and protect cabling. Such integrated systems are suitable for automated manufacturing, robotics and industrial manufacturing.
Value-add services to further enhance the LAPP range include Servo Connect solutions engineered to help users drive momentum and futureproof factories, as well as custom cables, fabricated to individual company specifications.
LAPP Australia engineers one-stop solutions for custom cable harnesses or servo and feedback cable assemblies for motion and drive applications.
Additionally, a representative of TOSIBOX will be on Stand G105 to explain and demonstrate the benefits of remote access solutions to ensure dataflow within operational technology networks. LAPP is an authorised TOSIBOX distributor in Australia.
“LAPP’s highly qualified team of technical engineering personnel has been producing world-class customised cable harnessing solutions for more than 30 years,” says Mr Pullinger. “With this backbone of tradition and online global backing and experience where required, our dedicated local engineers and skilled sales and support team can provide turn-key solutions to specific application requirements. Not only can we source and produce the complete package, but also LAPP Australia can stock the finished goods in preparation for when they are required, helping to reduce pressures on companies during the process of change as automation and Industry 4.0 advances.”
LAPP Australia’s purpose-built 3100sq m headquarters at Eastern Creek, Sydney, is purpose-built to fulfil the company’s undertaking to provide best range and superior service to meet national demand for advanced technologies backed by outstanding technical capabilities and swift delivery in future-focussed areas of industry.
“Our leadership strengths are a comprehensive range of quality, German-engineered cables, connectors and accessories that can withstand even the toughest conditions,” says Mr Pullinger. “First-rate product is backed by local technical support, strong stock inventory and short delivery lead times coast-to-coast. In good times of high demand – and also in times of need for supply line strength – this is a winning formula,” he said.
