German term

Feinstdrähte

German to English Tech/Engineering Electronics / Elect Eng materials engineering
This is part of the name of an R&D group:

„Weiterentwicklung eines laseroptischen Messverfahrens für die kontinuierliche Durchmesserüberwachung von Glasfasern und Feinstdrähten während des Ziehprozesses“

microcables? microconductors? microfibres?

I wouldn't be surprised if it's one of those, but I'm not sure what the right term is in this context - also, the Feinstdraehte must be produced in a 'pulling procedure' analogous to that used to produce fibre optic cables..

Thanks again!

"Microwire" fits the context <br>Please go to http://www.faqs.org/patents/app/20080254206:<br>Insula... electrically conductive fibers or microwires of sizes on the order of 1 mil (25 microns) diameter, so as to be suitable for processing into yarns or multi-microwire bundles, for example, for incorporation into conformable fabric products or for use as wearable electronic circuitry are made by coprocessing a core of a lower-melting-point metal within a sheath of a higher-melting-point polymer.

ultra-fine wire

I think Ziehprozess would be wire drawing process. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wire_drawing

The ultra-fine wire was sandwiched between silicon chips and the bonded assembly then sliced to produce longitudinal and transverse sections of the wire in a form suitable for further processing into electron transparent samples.

3 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Thanks Kim (& SwissTell) - I went with Kim's suggestion since it is generic and non-proprietary, and it seems likely that microwire is, and ultra-fine wire refers to filaments with a diametre of less than 1mm. Thanks again."

highly flexible conductor / extra finely stranded conductor

für deinstfrähtiger Leiter sagt das Siemens Fach-WB Energie und Automatisierungstechnik die o.g. Begriffe. Dieses WB ist absolut zuverlässig und ich bin mir nicht sicher, ob man es hier so wörtlich wie es vorgeschlagen war, nehmen kann.

zum ersteren gibt es dutzende Beispiele bei google, z.b.
