Project 1

WIRING HARNESS OF 16 VALVE ENGINE PROJECT

AIM

Design the Wiring Harness on the Given Engine and prepare a flatten view drawing in CATIA V5 according to specific packaging guidelines, quality standards, and necessary reports like clearance, clipping, harness fixing requirements, harness continuity, and any necessary assumptions along with CATIA 3D data.

OBJECTIVE OF THIS PROJECT

• Arrange each connector in its proper location before completing the assembly.
• To flatten the view design and route the wiring harness on a specific V16 engine using CATIA V5.
• The provided module of the v16 engine should be specified in either a 2D or 3D graphic.

PARAMETER USED IN WIRING HARNESS

• V-type Engine with 16 valves
• C-1563689-1 Connector
• C-776438-4-d-3d Connector
• C-282080-1 Connector
• Channel Bottom
• Channel Top
• Fir tree clip
• P Clamp
• L Clamp
• BACA-AMP-220

PROCEDURE

Download the necessary connections from the provided drive link. And the connectors in the shape of Cat parts were electrically specified.

V16 ENGINE

• Electrically specified terms like the axis system, connector connection point, and bundling entrance point are present in the necessary connector.

• The Fir tree clip, p clamps, and L clamps are utilised in the v16 engine to instal the many branch points.

PLACEMENT OF COMPONENTS

WIRING HARNESS OF GEOMENTRICAL BUNDLE

• The distance between the two places at the branch point is 50 mm; the slack is 0 to 7%; the bend radius is 7 mm; the diameter is 5 mm; and the bend radius ratio is 1.4.

• The wire harness should be maintained clear of heat-generating areas, with connectors only put where necessary.

WIRING HARNESS FLATTENING

Use a flatten command to translate the geometrical bundle into flattening specifications.

• After flattening the parameter, use the command "extract and copy extract file" and "flatten harness" in the new product file.

•To design connections on a straight line as shown in the illustration, use the flatten option.

• Select Electrical - bundle section - completely linked under Edit - Search - advanced.

WIRE HARNESS DRAWING FILE

• Create a sketch A3 ISO Paper size = 297 x 420 mm Global scale = 1:2. File - New - Drawing as a Format.

• The C-776438-4 connection should be selected as the front view option in the new design file so that a 2D or 3D wiring harness diagram may be created.

CONCLUSION

The v16 engine's wiring harness layout was completed using the catia v5 software. Wire harness assembly includes routing for essential parts such as the C-1563689-1 Connector, C-776438-4-d-3d Connector, C-282080-1 Connector, Channel Bottom, Channel Top, Fir tree clip, P Clamp, L Clamp, BACA-AMP-220clearance, clipping, harness fastening requirements, and harness continuity.
