Molex, LLC, a global manufacturer of interconnect solutions, has acquired Triton assets in fabricating flexible power cable assemblies and custom bus bars used for current and heat transfer applications, including power transfer devices for computers, industrial electrical power distribution, transportation, aerospace and telecommunications.

Together we’ll be able to provide our customers with even higher-value electronic solutions.”

Triton’s custom copper and aluminum, insulated, laminated and flexible bus bars deliver excellent thermal management with consistent and reliable power distribution to varying power loads in control panels, switchgears, inverters, battery systems and other electronics. Complex 3D configurations and the multiple current carrying capacity of Triton bus bar assemblies result in more efficient space utilization.
