Turn-Key Solution for Autonomous Trolling Motors
POSTED 02/06/2024
Customer Challenge
The customer approached Winchester Interconnect to discuss their need for a single, turn-key source that could help add ruggedization to a coil cord for an autonomous trolling motor. Initially the customer had several suppliers making different pieces of the coil cord. Having multiple suppliers caused complications during the manufacturing process and was difficult for the customer to manage.
Challenge Review
Winchester was tasked with creating a new cable design and turn-key coil cord assembly solution to offer a one-stop-shop for our customer and to make the coil cord assembly more rugged by designing a custom overmold solution to improve durability.
Winchester's Solution
Winchester had our engineering team engage with the customer to understand and determine the best technical solution for the application. We proposed changing the cable design to mitigate electrical interference between a magnetometer and other electrical components. Using our vertically integrated facility in Dayville, CT we were able to design and build the mold tooling in-house that offered customized features that minimized electromagnetic interference. Within a matter of weeks, the team in Dayville produced a prototype for electrical testing and compatibility.

The Age of Cognitive Robots: How Do We Get There?
We knew it was coming, the next generation – smart robots. What is the difference between artificial cognition and artificial intelligence? Is it just a natural progression of our collaboration with the machines? We have already jumped into the world of humanoid bi-pedals and our robots are recognizing our patterns of behavior, learning, and imitating our behaviors. What does it mean and where are we headed?
Customer Improvement
Winchester’s solution helped the customer with a more robust solution, eliminating the need to manage multiple suppliers and drive better quality by offering a one-stop-shop for the coil cord, assembly and overmold solution.
