Wiring harness design in CATIA V5 - 3D modeling Week 2 Challenge

CONNECTOR DEFINATIONS IN CATIA V5

1. Deutsch DT06 – 08SA

Connector connection point:

Create midpoint on the contact face which will be normal to wire bunddle .

Create Axis system

Make sure of the direction. The y axis is used as the mating axis. X axis is in the direction of locking.

NOW, switch to the electrical part design:

Define the part as our connector using the command:

Fill the number of terminals in it. Our connector has 8 terminals.

Define the bundle connection point:

Define Connector connection point:

2.Tyco 174357-2 :

We will follow the same process as we did in the previous connection:

The steps are as follows:

The midpoint for the connector connection point:

Create an Axis system on it:

Now create a bundle entry point:

Now, we can switch to the electrical part design workbench:

Define the connector using command:

Count the number of terminals .

Now select the connector connection point along with the coincidence direction.

Select the Bundle connection point.

We have to attach a cavity in this part as well so Cavity connection as well.

3. Tyco 85229-1 –

We are following the same process here:

This part is a clamping unit so we have to provide a cavity unit only.

Since both parts could be assambles in a single geometry:

We have assambled both the part using the Electrical assamblt design.

ALL THE PARTS AND ASSAMBLY PARTS ARE ATTACHED BELOW IN THE FILE:
