Project 1

Aim

Route the Wiring harness on Given Engine and Prepare flatten view drawing in CATIA V5. Application of all Packaging rules, Industry best practices studied in this course shall be demonstrated in design. Apply Protection coverings as required.

Engine Wiring Harness

A wire Harness, also Commonly referred to as a Wiring Harness, is an exterior Sheet used to cover some types of electronic Wires. Generally, Wiring Harness are made of thermoplastic or thermoset materials that can help protect the cables from the environment.

An Engine Wiring Harness is constricted Wires, Cables, Terminals, and Connectors Controlling a vehicle's electrical system. It relays electrical Power and Control Information to Components such as batteries, alternators, fuel injectors, fuses, audio systems, blower motors, fuel Injectors etc. Wire harness companies customize it for every location, application, and design it interconnects all the components to function properly. 

Designing of Wiring Harness for given V16 Engine Assembly

Step 1 Download the Engine Cad Data and Required Connectors CAD data from the given Source.

Step 2 Download the required Connectors from the Source and Convert the Mechanical Connectors electrically by using the electrical part design work bench.

Step 3 Download and define P-clamp and Furr tree clip.

Step 4 Download channel parts and create mirror copy for using it both sides.

Step 5 Create Context assembly and create another assembly inside it containing V16 Engine and second assembly for geometric bundle.

Step 6 Add C-1563689-1-B-3D (4 pole connector) to all fuel injector sensors as well as for the camshaft sensors.

Step 7 Add C-173090-2-A-3D (2 pole connector) as per requirements.

Step 8 Add C-282080-1-D-3D (2 pole connector) as per requirements.

Step 9 Add P-clamps and Furr tree clip for proper Routing of the harness Bundle.

Step 10 Place the Channels at the required locations in front of fuel injectors for proper routing of geometric bundle.

Step 11 Switch to Electrical harness installation for routing geometric bundles.

Step 12 Create the new product file for Harness flattening. Extract the assembly of geometrical bundle routing for flattening.

Step 13 Select all the branches and flatten the assembly properly.

Step 14 Create new drawing file and place the flatten harness assembly in front view. Chose the scale as 1:2 to fit the assembly in the drawing sheet.

Conclusion

The routing of Wiring harness of given V16 Engine and flatten view drawing in CATIA V5 is obtained.
