ANSWER:

  1. Deutsch DT06 – 08SA ( https://www.te.com/usa-en/product-DT06-08SA.html)

From the above-provided link, we have downloaded the part

We have created a bundle connection point for the bundle entry.

Bundle connection point:

We have created the Bundle connection point by defining the middle point on the entry side.

Switch to 'Electric Part Design'

Define the part as a connector in CATIA, and give the no. of termination as 8 because we have 8 entry points for wire.

Define Bundle connection point;

By selecting the bundle connection definition option we define the point

Define connector connection point:

By selecting the connector connection definition option we define the point;

Electric Assembly Design

  • Import Connector and cavity/mounting clip.
  • Select Defining Electric connection
  • select cavity and then connector.

we have added the parts in a single product file to perform the assembly

imported the existing developed parts into a single product file

by selecting the parts we assembled with the electrically connected option

We completed the assembly as shown above.
