Project 1

Report : In this challenge, we are provided with an engine and we have to perform and design the wiring harness routing inorder to connect various sensors and electrical components in the engine together. Here, we are using connectors, P-clamp, L-clamp,fur tree clip, channel bottom, channel top to complete the routing.

We are first electrically defining all the components involved in the wiring harness routing process in the electrical part design workbench. Then we are taking and assembling these parts in their respective locations using the commands "manipulation,snap and smart move" in the Assembly design workbench. We are also providing necessary supporting parts like P-clamp, fur tree clip etc. inorder to better perform the routing. Then we are switching onto the wiring harness assembly workbench and defining the assembly part as " Geometrical bundle " and then using the command "Multi-branchable document" we are creating wiring harness routings and connecting all the major electrical components together. We are using 5 mm, 10 mm, 15 mm as wire diameter. We are also creating "branch points" to create branches to perform more connections.

After properly performing the wiring harness routing, we are switching to the "Electrical harness flattening" workbench. There, we are first setting up the flattening parameters and then extracting the geometrical bundle which is to be flattened. Then after flattening , we are saving the file and then converting it into a 2-D drawing. For flattening, we are creating a new product. And after performing all these, we are done with the challenge !
